Revolutionizing the Wedding Industry, One Blog at a Time.
Not every wedding needs flowers… And not every bride needs a bouquet. But if you are involving real florals in your wedding, then chances are, you’re spending a lot of money on them. Which is all fine and dandy… but that’s a lot of money to spend on something that you only get to enjoy…
I love proposals. I love them almost as much as weddings. Traditional down-on-one-knee with a ring setup? Love it. Chill, spontaneous proposal on the couch? Yes. Scavenger hunt around the city that leads to your beloved offering you a sword instead of jewellery? Can’t get enough. (That last one was a true story, though. My…
Weddingmoons. It’s a very clumsy-sounding portmanteau, but the concept is pretty great. A Weddingmoon is basically an upgraded destination wedding: You go on your honeymoon, and you get married while you’re there. Getting married. On your honeymoon. Freaking brilliant.

Couples who were trying to be strategic, creative, or proactive about solving a problem or putting together a wedding that worked for them were put…
Let me set the scene, here: You just got married. You’re sitting with your new spouse(s) at your reception. Dinner has just been served, and you’re ravenous because you haven’t eaten in ages (possibly since yesterday). You’ve spent the last one to three hours posing for photos, thanking people for coming, putting up with marriage…
Weddings are frustrating. Admittedly, some people (myself included) find planning a big event with lots of minor details fun… but we’re the minority. If most people didn’t find planning a wedding stressful, then planners like myself wouldn’t need to exist. Granted, part of the reason weddings are so stressful for most people is the way…
So you’ve decided to have an alcohol-free or minimal-alcohol wedding. Congratulations! Now you’re stuck with the daunting task of figuring out what to serve your guests in place of more traditional libations. Fear not! I bring you a list of TEN alternative beverages to serve both yourselves and your guests. You may find some of…
We see a lot of bridal accessories marketed out there. Jewellery, tiaras, veils, sashes, purses, hair adornments, teeny tiny crystals that you can stick on your nails or your face…What I want to know is, where are all the accessories for grooms?
