5 things I wish every wedding couple would know
After almost a decade of weddings, I have gathered the most important tips to get your wedding from good to amazing.
After almost a decade of weddings, I have gathered the most important tips to get your wedding from good to amazing.
1. Be awesome party hosts.
You as a couple set the tone for your own wedding. If you are stressed, missing from the party, or not having a great time, your guests will eco it. So be present, don’t make scenes about things out of your control, and don’t rush.
2. Keep only the traditions you like and make up new ones.
There is no rule book for what must happen at every single wedding. It’s your party, and you make the shots. Plus lots of those traditions are begging for a modern spin on them.
3. Booze and lots of it – I don’t think this needs any more explanation

4. Awesome music that will keep people on their feet.
Spotify is great and all but it can’t read the vibe of the crowd. Musicians & DJs are professional entertainers, and they will find ways to get all of your guests onto the dance floor. Trust me on this – I would rather spend my money on that awesome band than an elaborate cake or a 5-course meal.
5. Don’t invite party poopers.
You know who I am talking about – the ones that will judge all of your decisions & make it awkward for everyone. This is me giving you permission to not invite people just because that’s what is expected of you. You don’t owe a wedding invite to anyone.
Bonus tip – the same applies to wedding vendors. Yes, we are there to work for you, but we all will do a much better job if we can really vibe with you.
