Like, totally.
I was asked to contribute to this article on sheFinds a couple of weeks ago (I’m #7!), and I love how it turned out. As I always say (all together, now: ) Have the Wedding You Want.
1. Seeing each other before “I Do.” First looks–the time where the bride and groom see each other prior to the ceremony–have become increasingly popular. Not only is it the chance for some great photos to capture the moment, but it also allows the bride and groom to skip some of the photo opps between the ceremony and the reception so they don’t have to miss the all-important cocktail hour, says Erica Schnell , events director at Ice House and Crushed Ice in Louisville, Kentucky.
2. Smashing the wedding cake. Cutting the wedding cake is still a major part of many couples’ receptions, but be sure to skip the part where you smash it in each other’s faces. It’s gross, been done way too many times and it just funks up your makeup (and your beautiful clothes!), says Marley Majcher, aka “The Party Goddess.”
See you at the end of the aisle,
