Wedding Tip Wednesdays: Watch your spouse dance

When your spouse is dancing with their mom, dad, grandparent or other loved one, watch...really watch. The person(s) they chose to have that special moment in the spotlight with is important and close to them so savor it with them by being fully present during it. Those 3 minutes are filled with so much emotion, you won't want to miss a second of it!

Wedding Tip Wednesdays: Thank people

Thank everyone who has supported you along the way as well as those who helped make your special day possible. It may sound like a no-brainer, but it's easy to forget. Whether you provide a token of appreciation, mail out thank you cards, or give a speech at your reception, showing gratitude for everyone that came out to celebrate with you will make them feel loved and appreciated!

Wedding Tip Wednesdays: Getting ready location

Where you get ready on your wedding day is entirely up to you. Most venues have a getting ready suite on property, which is ideal. Those that don't offer this, require choosing a separate location. It’s best to select a location that’s nearby so you don’t have to worry too much about traffic or transportation in general.

Wedding Tip Wednesdays: Pause for celebration

Take a moment immediately after walking back down the aisle together to stop and celebrate what you just accomplished moments ago. Your wedding party will join in behind you, so gather together for one big group hug to thank them for being by your side during it!

Wedding Tip Wednesdays: Selecting your photographer

Your photographer is with you through so much more than just one day. They help guide you through the entire process from building timelines, recommending vendors, answering questions, and yes, photographing your love story, from engagement to the big day. So don’t just choose based on pretty photos, choose based on who you trust through every step of the way!
