Hello brides! Welcome to a brand new year endearing with new hopes and exciting dreams. Yes, we affirm that 2023 is going to be your year, whether you are planning your wedding this year or early next year. If you are reading this, chances are you are planning to get married in early 2024 or late 2023. If you haven't picked a wedding date already, how about going for a New Year's Eve wedding? Weddings and New Year's Eve share a lot of similarities. Both involve dressing up, dancing, enjoying yourself, and of course, a Champagne toast. Therefore, it should come as no surprise that December 31 is a common date for weddings. You can take advantage of the chance to fly with the glitz and glam! A wedding on New Year's Eve wouldn't be complete without midnight revelry. When the clock strikes midnight, prepare to spout "Happy New Year!" and pop bubbles. Pouring a Champagne tower or making a toast with your preferred non-sparkling wine beverage can add a special touch to the occasion. Think about all the holiday signature wedding drinks! Also, think about hiring a surprise performer to take the stage or having confetti rain from the ceiling.

Your wedding is one of the most important days of your life. And along with that, for those who are close to you and love you, by default, your wedding day becomes important to them too!

With that said, on your wedding day, both you and your best girls will want to be dressed in the best colors in a flattering dress! If you’re planning to throw a wedding soon, or you are on the hunt for a wonderful dress for yourself and your bridesmaids, then this blog is just for you! We have compiled a list of bridal brands with some of the best designs, styles, and options! So, let’s dive in! 

One of the first things you think about when you are proposed to be married is the setting. Do you want a cozy barn wedding? Do you fancy a beach wedding? Do you want to say your vows at your local church or do you want to get married in the city hall on a Wednesday morning? The setting brings a lot to the table when it comes to the most important life events of our lives, whether it's getting proposed to or getting married. So when it comes to a wedding venue, no couple takes it lightly. It is after all where your dream wedding will play out, and it's by no way a decision to take in the passing. When it comes to conventional wedding venues, no matter where you want to get married, whether it's a church, banquet hall, hotel ballroom, or city hall, every venue comes with some dos and don'ts. In this blog, we will explore the different dos and don'ts of every section in detail. We suggest you read this blog before you book that venue for your special day!

Every love story is unique and special, like a lone snowflake with its own structure and magic within it! When two people come together, they create their own stories, their own routines, and their own inside jokes. They have their own meet-cute, plot arch, and also their own chance at happily ever after. Every couple deserves their own fairytale, and we are lucky to be in an industry that enables us to see real-life fairy tales every day. There is no joy quite like that familiar feeling of a blushing bride finding her forever soulmate and vowing in front of her loved ones to hold on forever. Devon and Bobby’s winter wedding is quite the winter fairytale of its own. From the Frozen-Esque backdrop, the ethereal snowy vibes countered with the warmth of love and the giddy feel-good ambiance. While there are many weddings we encounter, this is surely a winter wonderland dreamy wedding that will forever have a home in our hearts. 

Planning your wedding is not an easy fête. From picking a wedding date to planning for all the big and small wedding ideas and details, everything comes together to pave the way for the big wedding day and you definitely want it to be perfect. There are big-time decisions that are on your wedding planning checklist. There are lowkey ideas for high-impact weddings and then there are traditional as well as non-traditional wedding trends for you to keep note of. While none of this might seem easy and breezy, it is time to breathe in and let your anxiety out. There are many dreamy wedding ideas on a budget as well as extravagant details so that you can pick and choose your favorite ones. Always go for the ones that speak for your personality and take wedding decisions that can explain your taste better. Amidst all of this, one of the most important wedding planning decisions that you need to make is selecting your maid of honor. Of course, you have thought about all the gifting ideas for your bridesmaids and what you are going to wear while getting ready, but your maid of honor has an extensive role to play in your wedding that will go beyond creating your favorite bridesmaid photos! Once you have figured out who will be at your wedding party, it is time to narrow down the list to choose the maid of honor. But among all your close friends and family members, how do you choose that one person who fits all your needs and understands her maid of honor duties? Are you thinking what we are thinking? If you are wondering if you can have two maids of honor, the answer is a definite "YES!" You can have two MOHs, one maid of honor and one matron of honor, or even men of honor to break the wedding tradition beautifully! Here is to all the exciting times ahead. 

Wedding planning can be overwhelming, especially on money matters, if you’re not aware of the expenses and costs. Marrying the love of your life is one of the happiest moments of your life, and it need not come with a huge price tag. A beautiful wedding, whether small or large, should not be a matter of spending the big bucks. Most couples who plan their wedding starts off with a budget, but by the time your wedding is done, their expenses are off the charts. We want you to have a great wedding, a beautiful wedding that you deserve. However, we want that to happen with the budget you have in mind. That said, today’s blog post will go over a variety of details, which will help you figure out where to spend money. We will segregate the blog to help you understand the areas you can and should splurge on and where to take extra measures to cut the budget. That being said, let’s dive in! 
 

While summer is coming to an end, the wedding season is still going strong! We are starting to daydream about the autumnal flavors bursting with cinnamon spice and caramelized apples while being surrounded by crisp weather and a blanket of falling leaves featuring deep, dramatic hues as the fall wedding season approach. The ultimate wedding décor palette inspiration can be found in the fall wedding colors that go along with this transitioning season. 

Sometimes it's okay to shake things up a bit! Long flowing wedding dresses, groomsmen dressed up in sharp tuxes, wearing colors that mean something, a cute-as-a-button flower girl sprinkling petals for the bride to enter, the first dance to a slow song, and so on- weddings have a tendency to follow a pattern time and again. Of course, there is nothing wrong with this and there is nothing wrong with embracing wedding traditions, whether you want to talk about the beautiful tradition of something borrowed or incorporating sentimental something old ideas. But there is also no rule that says that you cannot stray from normal expectations. We are seeing how the younger generation couples are changing weddings and everything around them! Currently, we are noticing non-traditional wedding trends which are a unique blend of centuries-old wedding customs and fresh wedding updates that feels immensely personal to the people getting married. Everything is special when it comes to weddings. 

Fall is the perfect season to tie the knot and rightfully so! Although a fall wedding, to most of us, is filled with the smell of cinnamon, pumpkin spice, and beautiful pumpkin decor, courtesy of the universal love of Halloween, every once in a while, there’s something different. Today, we’re here to talk about the lovely wedding of Mary MacKenzie and Royce Haas. The wedding was nothing short of beautiful, delicate wedding decor, and a celebration of love in all of its grandeur. Their wedding was filled with happy moments, the love of their family members, and the happy smiles of their closest friends; all of which gave the beautiful couple some happy wedding photos. Our Detroit wedding photographer met the couple as they were getting ready, right before leaving for their wedding ceremony venue, Historic Trinity Lutheran Church. The wedding day was scheduled to take place in two different venues, after the ceremony in the church, the reception party venue was about a 30-minute drive from the church in the Inn at St. John's Plymouth. Both of the venues for the wedding were as pretty as a picture, and when the couple walked into both of these venues, everything felt like it had just come to life. Before the day started, the couple was buzzing with excitement. With starry eyes, the two decided to get dressed for the day they had planned carefully over the past few months. 

At times, planning a wedding can feel like a lot to do. Couples usually hire professionals to help them plan their weddings, but there are many reasons why they might also choose to do most of the work themselves. Even though there are a lot of extra details, it is possible to plan the wedding of your dreams on your own. This could be because they are on a tight budget or just love all the DIY wedding details. As a planning couple, you can take the help of many easy wedding planning guides to host the wedding of your dreams.
