Contemporary Celebrations: A Guide to Crafting a Stylish and Modern Wedding!

1

If you are tired of the all the classic weddings that you have attended in the past and are looking for something a bit different for your own special day, you may want to consider throwing a modern wedding instead.

A modern wedding is a popular trend at the moment and it will be a great way to celebrate the time that you are currently living in. Getting rid of tradition can be something that can make the day a bit less stressful as well and you may be more comfortable throughout the wedding process. Below are some tips to get you started in the right direction.

Simplify the Wardrobe

No one said that you have to dress in a formal wedding gown with bridesmaids wearing matching dresses beside you. This is one of the easiest ways to create a modern look.

Start with the wedding gown and choose something that defies all traditions. Choose a piece that shows off your personality and unique style instead of the tradition you want to uphold. You may even want to dare to choose a dress that is not a traditional wedding color to really stand out.

When it comes to the bridesmaids, one fun trend that is currently sweeping the wedding industry is dressing each bridesmaid in a different dress but that stick with the color scheme of the wedding. This is a great option because no two women are created the same. While one dress style may work well with one woman, it will look horrible on another. By having separate dresses, you will know that all of your girls will feel beautiful.

Throw out Traditions

If you are looking to completely go against the norm, you should get rid of some of the traditions that are usually present at weddings. For example, if you do not feel that being married in a church is important, choose a different venue instead. If the weather will be nice, you can always choose to have a wedding that is outdoors.

Another tradition that may be a fun one to break is waiting until you walk down the aisle for the groom to see you. This makes for a fantastic photo opportunity and you can plan a ‘first look’ before the ceremony to make it even more special. Having this moment in a private setting will allow you to enjoy it even more.

Conclusion

You can do many things to have a modern wedding that defies tradition. These weddings are created with the bride and groom’s interests in mind and bring out a lot of the couple’s personality.

Keep in mind that you do not need to throw out all traditions in order to have a modern wedding. There are many that you can keep, but the point is to create a wedding that you love rather than one that is based upon tradition.

Five Reasons to Hire a Wedding Planner

You are newly engaged and you’ve set the date for your wedding, but you haven’t decided yet whether or not you’ll hire a wedding planner. Maybe you can do it all yourself, but you’ve considered getting a little help. Here’s five reasons why you should consider hiring a professional.

They Are Mindful of Your Budget

If you set a budget with a planner, they won’t go over what you’ve laid out for them. When you are planning everything yourself, it may seem easy to justify some additional costs here and there but those costs can very quickly add up.

They Leave You Stress Free

Wedding planning should be enjoyable, not stressful. A wedding planner will make sure everything is booked and all suppliers get paid on time so you don’t have to worry about deadlines and whether or not you are missing something. Spend that time looking for dresses with your bridesmaids instead!

Your Wedding is in Another City

Sometimes if you are having a destination wedding at an all-inclusive resort, a wedding planner may be provided, but if one isn’t, make sure you hire one. It can be difficult enough to plan your wedding from another city yourself, but with help it will be much easier.

You Have a Vision You Want to Make Reality

Wedding planners know where to find the supplies you want for your wedding. Whether it’s a theme they need to accommodate or you want your reception to look like the inside of an ice palace, they know exactly how to bring what you are imagining to life.

You Deserve Perfection!

It’s your wedding day, and everything should be just as you imagined it. You don’t want stress to leave you drained leading up to the big day, and a wedding planner has done dozens to hundreds of weddings before, so you are in good hands with a professional. Just do your research and find someone who fits the style you are looking for.
