TVs at weddings

Did you know we use TVs at weddings? By having TVs we can create custom slideshows to displaying your most memorable moments. Slideshows are a great way to highlight wedding engagement pictures, destination wedding pictures, baby pictures, family picture, etc. One of the most unique ways we have ever used our TVs was when the best man, a soldier over seas, did the best man toast over Skype! He was in a complete different country, but with our technology, was still able to be a apart of the special day. How awesome is that! Such a special moment that brought many to tears.

Father and Daughter dance

Last week I talked about some great songs for The First Dance as a married couple. This week I wanted to make my own list of some great songs for the Father and Daughter dance. I tried to pick some newer and some older songs, from different genres. Here is my list:

1. DAUGHTERS- JOHN MAYER
2. DADDY'S LITTLE GIRL- MICHAEL BUBLE
3. MY WISH- RASCAL FLATTS
4. DADDY'S ANGEL- T CARTER

5. STEVIE WONDER- ISN'T SHE LOVELY
6. CINDERELLA- STEVEN CURTIS CHAPMAN
7. THE BEST DAY- TAYLOR SWIFT
8. DADDY- BEYONCE
9. MY LITTLE GIRL- TIM MCGRAW
10. I LOVED HER FIRST- HEARTLAND

This was a difficult list to come up with! There aren't many "new" songs that are used for The Father and Daughter dance. Remember, this list is just to help get your creative juices flowing. There is nothing more beautiful than playing a song that is unique to you and your father's relationship. Also, our clients always have the option to create their own special mix.

First Dance song ideas

In my opinion, one of the most special times during a wedding, is the bride and groom's first dance. I've watched first dances that have literally brought me into baby, sobbing, tears (what, don't judge me lol). But what if your not into the whole "super serious" thing? That's fine too! The whole point of the first dance is the image of the bride and groom coming together as a married couple. I did some research and came up with my own lists of "romantic" and "upbeat" first dance songs. Here is my list:

"Romantic"
1. I Won't Give Up- Jason Mraz
2. All of Me- John Legend
3. I Don't Want To Miss A Thing- Aerosmith 
4. At Last- Etta James
5. A Thousand Years- Christina Perri
6. You Are The Best Thing - Ray LaMontagne
7. God Gave Me You- Blake Shelton
8. I'll Be- Edwin McCain
9. There Goes My Life- Kenny Chesney
10. I Don’t Dance- Lee Brice

"Upbeat"
1. Ho Hey- Lumineers
2. Everything- Michael Buble
3. I Will Wait- Mumford & Sons
4. Love On Top- Beyoncé
5. First Day Of My Life- Bright Eyes
6. I'm Yours- Jason Mraz
7. Marry Me- Jason Derulo
8. Not a Bad Thing- Justin Timberlake
9. Marry Me- Train
10. Such Great Heights- The Postal Service

Wedding trend- Bridesmaid dresses

So lately I've noticed a huge trend merging in the wedding world (yes, I'm one of those Pinterest freaks lol). I've noticed that more and more brides are assigning/allowing their bridesmaids to wear different dresses! Some bridesmaids have similar dresses, but in different hues of the same color. Here is an example: the wedding color is pink, but bridesmaids dresses range from hot magenta, to baby pink, to fuchsia, to rose. I've also noticed that it doesn't stop at the colors, some have complete different styles/cuts! They might be the same length (some aren't even the same length lol), but the tops of the dresses are different ie: sweetheart neck, one shoulder, scoop neck, etc.. I've also looked at pictures of bridesmaids with the same dress, but different colored shoes or the same dress, but in a rainbow range of colors. So are you as mind blown as I am? I was totally a believer of the same style, same color, old fashion way, but I kinda like this trend! There is nothing wrong with being different and letting your bridesmaids personalaties show through their gowns! But is it pleasing to eye? You'll be looking at these pictures for the rest of your life! Make sure to see ALL bridesmaids with ALL their different outfits before your wedding day, you can always make changes before hand. "Wow" your guests with uniqueness!
