The dress. It can be a big deal and quite the decision making process, so here are some things to consider before venturing out to to find yours:

✨Location: Knowing the place and time of your wedding will help focus your search. If you’re getting married on a beach, a ball gown with a long train might not be at the top of your list. Most fabrics are suitable year-round, but some, (ie: linen, velvet) are better for warm or cold weather especially if you are planning for an outdoor celebration

✨Budget: Figure out how much you want to spend and tell the salesperson before gowns start getting pulled. That way you won't lose your heart to a dress you can't afford. Remember to also budget for accessories and alterations!

✨ Focus on Fit, Not Size: Wedding dresses often run smaller than ready-to-wear dresses. So don’t worry about the numbers and don't insist on a smaller size because you intend to lose weight before the wedding—order the one that fits now. A gown is easy to take in, but difficult and costly to let out.

We are back at one of our favourite venues today after almost a year and a half hiatus (thanks to the C word!). There won’t be nearly as many guests there as we are used to but sometimes intimate is better so you can hang out with all your people!

I remember when none of our couples wanted guests

I remember when none of our couples wanted guests to clink their glasses to urge them to kiss and we would create/provide kissing menus to help aid in this venture BUT clinking glasses seems to be making a comeback!

If you still aren’t into clinking glasses here are a few ideas instead:

✨Kissing Menu: you can have a variety of actions for your guests to choose from, like singing a song or sharing a funny story to trade for a kiss between the newly-weds

✨Kisses by donation to your favourite charitable organization

✨Leave a bell at each table or place setting with a note to ring the bell instead of clinking glasses.

Continuing our re-introductions today with one of our lead planners - Celestina!

Celestina started her career at a top wedding venue in Northern Ireland, she then made her way to Victoria, and now lives in Vancouver. She is @wpicinc certified, like all our lead planners, and is excited to share her love of weddings with all her couples. She is also one of the brains behind the @uncommonparty and is one of the many couples trying to plan a wedding for after the pandemic.

Her other interests include travelling, trying to keep her plants alive (relatable), board games and anything chocolate. 😋
