Why You Should Consider Exchanging Vows Before The Wedding

by

As the day of your wedding nears, you get to focus on the little details. Every wedding requires an exchange of vows as a way of your promise with each other that you will fulfill for the rest of your lives together. You may opt not to share your wedding vows on the wedding ceremony and just do it prior to the wedding. Here’s what you should know about exchanging vows:

Exchange of Vows

The exchange of vows is one of the most important part of the wedding as this is when the magic comes in where you get to hear the vow of your partner to you and share it with your family, relatives and friends. This is where your audience and especially you, get to smile, laugh and even ugly cry. It is where all the emotions will be shown bare and raw.

Who Goes First

Traditionally, the groom is the first one to share his vows first. As time goes by, people are more accepting and open that this tradition is shifting to a gender neutral and equal ceremony where whoever wants to go first can do so. You may discuss it prior to the wedding to avoid waiting time during the ceremony itself. This decision will also show how your family relationship dynamics will be. If you are still undecided after you talked with each other, then you may let fate do its work by tossing a coin or rolling a dice. It will be so much if you do it like that.

Why Exchange Vows Before The Wedding

Exchanging vows before the wedding is not often done as the tradition taught us to exchange vows during the wedding ceremony itself. As time goes by, wedding traditions are altered and change causing some traditions to be gone. Some officiant of weddings encourage a married couple to exchange their vows beforehand instead of sharing and reciting it in front of their guests. This is to give a chance for the couple to keep their own personal and written vows with each other and understand what they are agreeing to each other with their vows. The most important thing about vows is you get to understand each other and be committed with your marriage.

The vibrant colors will definitely look good on your wedding photos and it will bring a nice vibe on your wedding. Make sure to keep the colors close to your theme though for it to match it magically. You should coordinate with your wedding planner regarding this so that he or she could prepare it ahead of time.

Balloons

No matter what the occasion is, a balloon is always a good idea. It will be better though to buy a biodegradable balloon as to not add to the increasing pollution in the sea and land. Balloons gives off a feeling of love and romance that will surely uplift the moment on your wedding day. It will also be a good idea to tie a note with their well-wishes on the balloon and release them together to have a better feel of the moment. The best time to release the balloon is in the daytime or dawn, where everyone can see it ascending in the sky.

Balloon Toss

Fan of balloons but you don’t want the hassle of a balloon escaping? Then, balloon toss is definitely for you. Balloon toss is best done indoors at it makes the venue even more playful because you can toss the balloon from one guest to the other and enjoy playing with it. It also looks wonderful especially when there’s a lot of balloon and you run across the pile of it. Choose the best texture and color that will enhance your wedding style even more.

Don’t forget to toss the flower petals like a flower girl giving way for the married couple.

Blow the Bubbles

A cute and economical way of celebrating the newlywed is to blow bubbles. It looks really nice on photos and gives off a playful vibe after all the seriousness during the wedding ceremony. Bubbles will bring more fun on your wedding and make your guests enjoy too. Be ready for some slimy floor though as the bubble pops, it turns to suds and is quite sticky and slippery if you walk pass through it.

Colored Smoke

We only see colored smoke during fun runs and photo-ops. If you want a really unique and unforgettable wedding send-off then you may try the hand-held smoke bombs!

How To Plan a Beach Wedding

by

A Beach Wedding is always a good idea as it gives you a feeling of warmth, serenity and peace. It is a wedding and a vacation coupled into one that you and your guests will definitely enjoy! In order to have a hassle and stress-free beach wedding, Here’s what you should take note of:

Wedding Planner

A wedding planner is ideal in every kind of wedding but they are needed the most in destination weddings such as beach weddings. It would be nice if the wedding planner that you booked is familiar with the beach that you are planning to have your wedding as they will easily be able to book the best resort and services that there is around the area. Also, the wedding planner will save you from the hassle of wedding planning and make sure that you will just smile and remember the moment on your wedding day. Wedding planners will also be able to foresee the possible problems that may occur on the day of your wedding and they will be prepared if anything happens.

Location Matters

This is the most important part of a beach wedding where you should consider both the beauty and accessibility of the said resort for your friends and family. When looking for the best resort or location, look for a place where you think will make your wedding the most memorable and enjoyable one. Don’t forget also to look at the weather for your ideal dates to make sure that you don’t get rained on your wedding day. We would like to see Mr.Sun out, don’t we?

Save – The – Dates?

Since you are considering to have a destination wedding, you may need to give your guests an early heads-up for them to be prepared for the trip physically, mentally and financially. As your wedding will somewhat serve as a vacation too, they may need to inform their company or office ahead of time to make sure that they will surely be able to attend your wedding. Ideally, save-the-dates should be sent at least a year prior to the wedding but sending it out 6 months before is okay too as long as you give your guests enough time to prepare.

Also, make sure that the wedding invite has a clear instruction on how to get to the beach wedding venue, the ideal route and the best time to travel. This is to give the guests an idea when they should leave in order to be at the wedding venue on time and not get lost.

Guests Travel and Accommodations

The engaged couple is usually not responsible for the guest’s airfare and hotel accommodation or the meals prior to the wedding. But, it is the role of the engaged couple to help them coordinate with the hotel and make arrangements. Ideally, a hotel block is the easiest and most cost-effective way of saving a lot of money for you and your guests to ensure that they will only have fun during the wedding celebration. You may ask your guests in advance if who are the ones who are confirmed to be going and if they would want you to be the one who will book the hotel for them.

Dress Code

The best part about beach wedding is that it gives off a very casual and care-free vibe and does not require an expensive piece of dress or gown. Of course it still depends on the both of you if you still want a formal dress code for your wedding or go for a more casual one but still looks classy. Whatever you set your mind to, don’t forget to include sample pictures of the type of dress code that you want for your wedding to avoid differences in the outfits of the guests. Take note to keep comfort in check as you are having your wedding outdoors, under the sun and on the beach (stilettos will definitely sink in the sand, right?) .

How To Downsize Your Wedding Guestlist (COVID-19 Edition)

by

So many protocols have changed the way we interact these days. It has resulted to multiple cancelled public concerts, events and even important occasions such as weddings and birthdays. Sadly, as much as we want to invite everyone to attend the wedding of your dreams, we cannot invite everyone as we need to follow the safety and health protocols implemented in the country today. With that, we made a complete guide on how to downsize your wedding guestlist during this pandemic:

Decisions, Decisions

The only people who can decide whether to push through with the wedding is just you and your partner. The restrictions and protocols keeps on changing from cities to states to even countries. This might pressure you to decide fast in order to avoid another hassle when a new restriction is going to be implemented. This might be taxing for you and your partner but we definitely understand that you have waited far too long to be in each other’s arms.

The quicker you decide on downsizing your wedding, the better because it will allow for the necessary changes to set in place. Don’t forget to inform your wedding planner first before everyone else as she will be the one strategizing on how to maximize the wedding venue and how to make everyone enjoy with you even if they are not present. Also, the guests would love to know if they will be allowed to attend physically so that they can prepare what they needed ahead of time especially for those who needs to travel long distance just to get to the wedding.

Downsize your Guestlist

As much it is hard to decide which of your guests are the ones you should keep and those who didn’t make it to the list, the decision still needs to be made. Prior to starting the process make sure to take a deep breath and bring your focus on what you are planning and doing.

First things first, the immediate family (your parents, siblings and grandparents) of the both of you will definitely be the top 1 in your priority list. They are the ones congratulated you first on your engagement and they are the happiest in your upcoming marriage. Some partners only limits their wedding with their immediate family but if your venue is quite spacious and your state or country permits to add more as long as you will practice social distancing properly then you can add more to that list. You may choose to invite your closest friend and relatives who were witnesses of your love for each other.

Do not also forget to tick-off some people from the guest list including those plus ones, co-workers, friends you don’t connect with anymore and the guests or friends of your parents who you have no real connection with. Remember, your wedding is a day to celebrate the union between you and your partner, it should be worry and hassle-free.

Safety is Our Priority

At this point in time, everyone’s safety should be the priority. Rather than solely focusing on the wedding, you should also need to care for the safety of yourself, your family and even your guests. Like every other event, a wedding is still considered as a party too – but a special one. A party means that there will be a lot of dancing, alcohol and partying that will be happening. That would definitely make everyone excited but wait – think of the possible repercussions of your actions. The moment you hear that a guest contracted COVID, you will second guess if you have contracted the virus too, making your happiness overshadowed by worry and stress. That’s something we wouldn’t want to happen, don’t we?

Still, nobody can stop you if you want to continue with your wedding but make sure that you follow proper safety protocols and the limited numbers of guests according to the recommendation of the state or the country you were in. You may continue with the party but change some of the program flow which will require you or your guests to remove their mask. We want to celebrate the two of you but we also want everyone to go home safely!

Home Weddings: Dos and Don’ts

by

With COVID-19 still a threat in the world today, many life events like weddings have taken a different course. Many couple opted to spend their weddings at the comfort of their home together with their close friends and family. Still, a wedding should be memorable even when it’s done at home. Here are some things you should take note of when planning a wedding:

Do: Still Hire a Team of Professionals

You may be planning to have your wedding at home but it is still an important event not only for you but also to your family. A wedding at home does not mean that you should just take the preparations for granted. It will still be a great idea to hire an experienced wedding planner to help arrange the whole wedding and remove a bulk of responsibility off your shoulder. There are many ways for an expert to beautifully décor your house and turn it into a different place that is intimate and unrecognizable. Most of the people who did home weddings usually use their backyard. It is not a bad idea as it has great space and it lessens the expenses.

Do: Consider Other Elements

Check the season of which you plan to do the wedding. Is it cold, snowy or even a warm and hot sunny day? The whole wedding planning also considers this as a factor as you may need to prepare more things if it’s going be on a cold season as you have to prepare heaters in advance to make sure that your guests will not get too cold. Knowing the date and season will also help the wedding planners to anticipate what could happen at such time and they will immediately be able to come up with a solution months before the wedding.

Do: Have a Catering Kitchen

We usually have one kitchen in our house but we don’t really want them to make a mess inside our house don’t we? Unlike wedding venues, they have a designated kitchen area for the caterers. Since you don’t have it at home why not make one? You may use your garage or driveway, whichever has a bigger space, to have them a good enough space to prepare the food while being away from the eyes of the guests. Wedding planners have all the connections that they need in order to provide you with the best caterers in town.

Do: Consider the Flow of Events

This isn’t something that a couple who is about to be wed is concerned about. However, hosting a wedding at the comfort of your home means that you have to make sure that you planned out every step and every flow of the wedding event – from the guests’ perspective. Think of where the guests will park their car, how they will get to your house and where will they go before the wedding ceremony starts. This will definitely put your creativity and patience to test.

Don’t: Forget to Check your City Rules

Different cities have different rules. You may need to check with your city if home weddings are allowed and if there restrictions or noise ordinances that may affect your celebration. You wouldn’t want a group of police to be dispatched at your home and ruin your wedding celebrations, wouldn’t you? Better do your research before doing anything. Also, it would be nice to send some courtesy to your neighbors that you will have a wedding party on a certain date for them to be aware that there will be a number of people who’ll be going to your home.

Don’t: Assume your Bathroom will Suffice

Not all houses have the luxury of having more than 2 bathrooms in their home. If you have more than 2, then you are probably lucky. Still, don’t think that your bathrooms will suffice for your guests. We better expect the unexpected in order to avoid any mishaps during the wedding day. If you are not so confident with the number of bathrooms you have and the capacity of your sewage system, then you should consider hiring a portable bathroom. It does not only saves you a lot of time from cleaning the  bathrooms afterwards, it also lessen the hassle for your guests in finding the bathrooms.

Don’t: Forget to put Good Lighting

You may have done the ceremony during daylight, but don’t think that the wedding proper will be finished any time soon as the program will only start after the ceremony itself. Don’t forget to invest on a good lighting especially in the evening to make the venue bright and lively. Also, light a path from the backyard to the front yard in order for your guests to not get lost and easily find their way when going in or out of the house.

Virtual Weddings

by

Because of the pandemic, many wedding ceremonies were either delayed or was cancelled for the meantime. Some couples who still want to continue the ceremony even without the physical presence of their loved ones opted to host a zoom wedding instead. Not a bad idea, right? Especially if you have grandparents or relatives who are discouraged from going out. Here what zoom weddings are and what you should prepare if you are planning one.

Virtual Weddings

With so many restrictions in place by the government and COVID-19 still lingering around us, there are many celebrations that were put to a halt last year. The vaccinations for COVID-19 have started but many people were not able to get vaccinated yet as some are not recommended to have one, especially the elderly population. It is truly frustrating to not be able to share your happiness with the people who matter to you most like your friends, family and relatives. Nevertheless, distance will not matter for the people whom you love and who loves you. We planned out a simple guide to celebrate your wedding virtually and make the most out of it!

What You Need:

Unlike traditional wedding that needs a wedding planner, a virtual wedding only requires the following:

  • A working computer, phone, tablet that you could use.
  • A Zoom or any other account that does not have a time limit and a good platform which will allow guests to view the wedding hassle-free.
  • An officiant – this depends on the place or country of marriage. Some countries now offer a wedding ceremony via zoom while some still requires the presence of the couple. Better ask this in your local registry of marriage to have more information regarding this.
  • A photographer is still a must! Who doesn’t want to have their wedding documented? Even if they are not physically present with you, they are still celebrating together.
  • A marriage license – check with your local registry to find out more about how to obtain the marriage license especially during the present pandemic.

What You Need To Prepare:

Invite a few guests

Just because you are having a virtual wedding does not mean that you will need to limit the number of your guests too. Some states or countries allows at least 10 people with you during the ceremony. Those whom you want to invite but can’t be due to these restrictions may still join you via online platforms. So aside from yourself, your partner, the officiant and the photographer, you may still invite at least 6 more guests to join you in person.

Pick a meaningful place

The beauty of having a virtual wedding is you have a say on where you want to celebrate it. Whether it be on the suburbs or a forest, as long as there is cell service, you can go there. Some opted to celebrate in the comforts of their home but if you want to still have a unique experience for you and your guests you may look for a beautiful and meaningful place together with your partner. No matter what, make sure that there is adequate cell service with good hotspot or internet connection.

Keep the video call secure

Do not post the meeting ID or link of your wedding anywhere. As much as the internet is concern, hackers are everywhere. You wouldn’t want your wedding to be hacked by anyone, right? Instead of giving the meeting ID, why not give them a specific date and time of the ceremony, just give them the invite or link an hour before it starts.

Press the “Mute” button

Don’t forget to mute everyone before the ceremony starts as to provide an intimate and solemn ambience during the ceremony. This is also to avoid nuisance that may occur. You may easily do this especially if you are the host of the call.

Finding The Perfect Wedding Venue

by

A wedding is a ceremony between two people who deeply loves each other and are one in marriage. Wedding traditions varies from one culture to another. Luckily, marriage ceremonies nowadays are evolving and are becoming more open to changes. Let us guide you into finding the perfect wedding venue for you and your partner:

Get a Wedding Planner

You might be wondering why the first thing you should do is to get a wedding planner? The reason is simple – wedding planners definitely make your wedding planning hassle-free. They will become your best friend throughout the planning process. Also, wedding planners have so much experience when it comes to weddings that they are much more familiar with the capabilities of a space, layout, time and the possible items that you will need to achieve your dream theme. They are able to share their creativity skills and brighten your wedding even more.

How to Choose A Wedding Venue

1. Dates – before choosing the best place for your wedding, the crucial part and the first thing you should check is to whether or not the venue you have in mind is available for the dates that you like. You should coordinate with your partner and decide together the date you want to set your wedding. If your heart is set on a particular date, open your mind to the possibilities that you may need to adjust the dates according to the availability of the venue that you want.

2. Price – knowing your budget is important as it will dictate whether or not you could afford the rent of the wedding venue of your choice. Wedding venues have varying prices for weekend and weekdays. If you are flexible, you may choose a weekday schedule to save more money and allocate it for food or the design of the venue.

3. Facilities – venues gave out their pamphlets which contains the facilities that the venue offers. You may also go through their websites to see the different people who had their celebration there and how they designed it. If you have time, it is so much better to visit each of the wedding venue you are eyeing. It will feel more personal, and you will have an idea on the vibe and ambience of the venue. Aside from looking at the aesthetics, you will also need to consider the less exciting parts of the venue. If you want a summer wedding, better check if the air-conditioning is working properly and a heater if it is a winter wedding. Choosing the best venue is important but you should also ensure that you, your partner and your guests are well-hosted and will enjoy the celebration. Other things you should ensure is:

  • Is it accessible for disabled people?
  • Is parking provided?
  • Is the location of the wedding venue accessible to all guests?
  • How many bathrooms are there and where are they?
  • How big is the room and is it sufficient for a dance floor or a band?
  • What are the restrictions of the venue about what can be done with its facilities?

4. Vendors, food/drinks and other services – did you and your partner already decided on the theme of your wedding? What kind of cake you would want or the type of food that will be served on your wedding day? Would you want a three-course meal or a buffet for your guests? Do you want to rent a bar or just a couple of wine of your own choice? As you get through the wedding process, you will slowly see all of the details coming together. You don’t need to get the caterers, or the partners of the venue and you may opt to look of a vendor of your choice. Many of the venues may enforce a minimum food and drinks budget so better coordinate with them regarding this.

5. Staffing and coordination – every venue has their own staff who would help during the preparation of the venue. Coordinate with them to know exactly what the venue provides and how many people would you need to hire to help out in the wedding. This also includes the staffs provided by the caterer, bar or other rental services. Having a better idea about this will lessen the time they needed to consume for preparation and will make the wedding process hassle-free.
