Why You Should Treat Yourself to a Massage Before Your Big Day

written by admin

Planning for your big day can be stressful, as pre-wedding jitters take their toll. As you run down your pre wedding checklist, making sure that your i’s are dotted and t’s crossed, it’s a good idea to add one more item to your already hectic schedule: a massage.

A pre wedding massage can do you the world of good and provide a much needed break from all the planning and anxiety.  During a massage session, your heart rate is lowered considerably and your brain releases ‘happy hormones’ that put you in a good mood. Many people consider massage to be a luxury, but it should actually be built in to any healthy lifestyle. Massage helps to relax the muscles, improves circulation and can aid detoxification.

You could decide to go with your partner, your wedding party, a friend or family member; however you decide to approach it, just one hour of relaxing massage will strengthen your immune system, help you recharge and more than likely provide the inspiration you need to make your day as special as it should be. At the very least, you’ll have an hour to yourself, where you can just forget about it all and relax.

Below are some more prudent reasons why a pre wedding massage is an absolute must before your big day.

Stress reliever

Are the in-laws driving you crazy? Are the contractors not returning your calls? Planning for your big day can be the ultimate test of patience; it can also cause significant psychological and physical fatigue. While there are many things you can do to stay calm and collected during the planning period, one of the most effective ways to relieve stress and promote relaxation is by taking a massage. In small amounts, stress can be useful for getting things done, but in large doses, it can be quite harmful. There are very few activities that can result in severe psychological and physical stress as when you’re planning for your wedding.

Improves sleep

There aren’t many days in a woman’s life that can pose a threat to their psychological health as the last few days before her wedding. As the big day draws closer, the sheer number of things that need doing can affect how well you sleep. Every newlywed knows the importance of catching enough sleep before the big day – not only to maintain that crucial wedding glow, but for cognitive function, improved mood and general health. Having a massage a few days before your wedding will do much to aid your circadian rhythm. Massage has been known to help improve sleep at a chemical level by increasing the delta brain waves that are connected to deep sleep, improving concentration and increasing energy levels.

Lifts mood

Different things work for different people, but sometimes, all you need is just an hour on the massage mat to lift your mood. Planning for your wedding can be overwhelming; when things appear not to be going as planned, it can have a negative effect on your mood. The truth is that a negative mood will only do more to hurt your plans than help. You could find yourself snapping at people who are only trying to help or end up making mistakes that could have been avoided. This overwhelming feeling of stress and moodiness can happen at any time while you’re planning for what should be the happiest day of your life. A good massage session will increase serotonin (the hormone responsible for regulating anxiety) and reduce cortisol (the stress hormone) in your body, effectively putting you in a happy and healthy place.

Radiant and healthy skin

Radiant and healthy skin is another benefit of massage that might not be immediately obvious. Multiple facial massages before the wedding will help in solving the problem of ‘bad skin’, which almost every bride is worried about on the big day. This type of massage helps the lymphatic system, which is the body’s waste disposal system. It also helps to improve circulation, which brings much needed nutrient rich blood to the massaged areas, resulting in healthy skin and a fresh glow.

Reduces bloating

It wouldn’t do to feel bloated during your wedding; you’ll feel so uncomfortable that you might not be able to enjoy your special day. Thankfully, certain massage techniques can help increase the metabolism of antioxidants and nutrients. When your body metabolises faster, you can easily flush out toxins and subsequently digest food better.

This process helps to reduce bloating and any discomfort that comes from improper digestion. Massage sessions can be helpful in making you feel one hundred percent throughout your wedding day. After all, there are better things to think about – such as flower arrangements and bridesmaid dresses – than the state of your stomach.

Enjoying your massage

The importance of a pre-wedding massage cannot be overemphasised. However, you’ll also want to be able to enjoy the full massage treatment and all its associated benefits. This means speaking up if you’re in an uncomfortable position or need to visit the toilet. The most important thing is that you’re comfortable enough to enjoy your massage treatment.

Massage therapists are always interested in getting your feedback, so if the pressure is not what you want or the atmosphere unsuitable, don’t hesitate to speak up. You’re meant to pamper yourself during your pre-wedding massage so don’t feel reluctant to do so.

However, understand that massage isn’t quick fix solution; it usually takes more than one session to feel the long term benefits. It’s also a good idea to have a massage pampering session a few days before your wedding, as you’ll need the benefits to be evident if you plan to be the life and soul of the party.

So, as you plan for your wedding, make provisions for a few massage sessions. Expunge your body of those toxins and put yourself in the perfect frame of mind for your big day.

5 best kept secret locations for a New Zealand Honeymoon

written by admin

A honeymoon is ultimately the culmination of your wedding adventure, alongside the person you’ve chosen to spend the rest of your life with. It gives you time to relax, connect, get closer and create memories in a place far away from home.

Typically, the best honeymoons are filled with adventure, laughter and unbridled joy. This is precisely why you should visit New Zealand, which serves as the ideal location for the perfect honeymoon.

New Zealand is one of the most spectacular places on earth, where you’re guaranteed to have the time of your life. If you’re looking for adventure, breath-taking views, natural hot springs, diverse culture, unique wildlife and adrenaline pumping activities, you’ll find it all in ‘The Land of the Long White Cloud’.

Here, we’ve highlighted some of the best-kept secret locations you should consider when honeymooning in New Zealand.

Touch the world’s largest hot spring at Waimangu Volcanic Valley

Frying Pan Lake, in the Waimangy Volcanic Valley

Just a short drive from Rotorua, Waimangu is home to the light blue, steaming inferno crater, Frying Pan Lake, as well as Lake Rotomahana. You can get energised with a Waimangu walking tour, luxuriate on a Rotomahan boat cruise, and see the only geothermal system created by a volcanic eruption. You can also soak-up the atmosphere of the valley, follow nature trails through the inferno crater and be captivated by vigorously bubbling hot springs. There are even some rare plants present that have adapted to Waimangu’s hot earth, creating a new ecosystem out of total devastation. The award-winning eco-centre is open every day from 8:30 am.

Explore an unusual beach at Waikawau Beach Tunnel

Waikawau beach is one of the few publicly accessible parts of coastline between Awakino and Marokopa. The only access to the beach is via a short, man-made cave that is simply breathtaking to look at. It was carved by three local labourers armed with shovels and picks in 1911. Here, you can explore face carvings, waterfalls and white cliffs. The beach is typical of the west coast, featuring scattered rocks and dark sands. It is isolated and quiet, making it a great spot to spend the day in
solitude whilst swimming in natural waterholes formed by the surf. You can even bring along a net to catch some whitebait.

Release your water animal at Matapouri Bay

Matapouri Bay

Matapouri Bay boasts a striking white sandy beach, perfect for a honeymoon getaway destination. The bay is just ten minutes away from Tutukaka, where you can explore Mermaid Pools at low tide and swim in the estuary. Join the natives in jumping off the bridge and unleash your adventurous side. You can also launch from a boat ramp, while other attractions in the area include Ngunguru, Poor Knights Island Marine Reserve and Whale Bay.

Hiking to Anapai Bay

Anapai Bay

Located in the Abel Tasman National Park, Anapai Bay is one of New Zealand’s best secret beaches. You can only get here by hiking or with a boat, which only adds to its secrecy. The hike usually takes three hours to complete (there and back), while if the tide is favourable, you can even cut out the estuary to save time.

There are two beaches on the bay; the first is a stunningly beautiful, long beach with golden sands and a clear view of the ocean. The other side of the bay is quieter and deserted, providing a great place to spend the day away from prying eyes with your loved one. There is a small campsite if you want to stay the night.

See the endangered Birds at the untouched Kapiti Island

Kapiti Island

Kapiti Island is a nature reserve that houses some of the most endangered birds in New Zealand, creating a safe haven for them in which to thrive. Access to the Island is limited only to small groups via a licensed tour operator. It’s a great way to spend the day with your partner and relax on a beach, surrounded by wild birds and raw nature.

There are many activities to enjoy on the Kapiti Coast; for instance, Queen Elizabeth Park is a beachside location, where you can picnic, swim, cycle or walk. Grab lunch at the Marine Parade Eatery, which is designed to mirror a Robinson Crusoe theme, with a great view of the island and an impressive international menu. Meanwhile, discover a wide range of native New Zealand species at Nga Manu, such as a three-eyed lizard, kiwi birds, kaka parrots, tui, and eels.

Try some of the weirdest extreme sports in Queenstown

The Shotover jet in Queenstown.

Queenstown is the best place in the world if you and your partner are looking to go the extra mile and engage in extreme sports. The hydro attack is a Seabreacher X watercraft that looks like a shark, taking you in and out of the water in a manner that will put your heart in your mouth. Water sledging puts your nose in the waterfall and discovers the steepest luge ride in a go-cart half slide, ideal for any adventurous couple. Remember to check your travel insurance from Air New Zealand to protect your trip whilst holidaying in New Zealand.

Spy on some of the rarest species of seal at Waipapa Point

The Waipapa Point lighthouse.

Waipapa is a coastal heaven, deep in The Catlins, where there’s seemingly an incredible sight to behold round every corner – most of which are absolutely free to experience. Start off at Waipapa Point, where you’ll find the lighthouse, a memorial for sea lions, as well as a shipwreck. Note that there are many rocks that make it difficult to spot the sea lions, but you could just be lucky enough to see one and take a good picture all the while. You can increase your chances of spotting a sea lion by visiting when there aren’t too many tourists in the area.

Discover the beauty of Marokopa Falls

Marokopa Falls

Often described as one of the most beautiful waterfalls in New Zealand, Marokopa cascades from an impressive height of 35m. The waterfall is located in Tawarau Forest, a short drive away from the popular Waitomo caves, where you’ll also find the striking glow worms. Marookopa Falls is noticeably wide and features an interesting rock formation down the side. The
walk to the fall is convenient for anyone; at the right time of year, you’ll be led to a viewing platform with an incredible view of the waterfall and an opportunity to take some amazing photos. Other top attractions nearby include Piripiri Cave and Mangopohue Natural Bridge (both with free entry).

Conclusion

New Zealand is an amazing country to explore. No matter what time of the year you care to visit or activity you prefer, this nation of extremely friendly people welcomes you with open arms and offers some of the most awe-inspiring views and natural wonders you’ll ever see.

Beat the Wedding Stress Blues!

written by admin

Planning a wedding can be one of the most stressful times in a bride’s life and everything from the major decisions like venue and dress to the seemingly more minor decisions like centrepieces and wedding favours can seem like an incredibly daunting and induce stress in even the calmest and most composed of brides.

While it would be ideal for your day to go exactly as you have dreamed of and have been planning for, it is important to remember that you need to take the time to destress and relax during the planning to ensure the run-up to the big day isn’t engulfed by stress but rather an enjoyable and memorable experience that you will have with your other half and closest friends and families for the rest of your life.

If you’re worried that you’re the only bride who’s pulling their hair out with all the competing pressures of planning a wedding – fear not, there are a lot more brides in exactly the same boat as you.

Fortunately, there’s a few easy and proven methods to tackle the stresses of planning for a wedding and some handy tips to help your day and its run-up to go as smoothly as possible.

Planning a Wedding is Not For The Faint-hearted – and the Statistics Prove It

According to a survey done by wedding company, Zola, on 500 engaged or newlywed couples, 96% of those survey called wedding planning stressful with 40% of those surveyed even going so far as to describe it as extremely stressful.

When probed as to the biggest stressors:

  • 35% stressed most about getting everything done
  • 20% stressed most about managing guest lists and RSVPs
  • 14% stressed most about finding a venue

Perhaps one of the most interesting statistics to emerge from the survey however was the fact that 71% of participants said that wedding planning is more stressful than one or more of the following:

  • Public speaking
  • Finding a job
  • Having bad credit
  • Applying to college
  • Buying a home or moving to a new house

If you’ve been feeling the effects of wedding stress, you’re not alone. Many couples experience a high number of stress-induced symptoms when planning a wedding, as is evidenced by the results of the Zola survey, which found that of 86% who experienced on average three or more stress-induced symptoms:

  • 56% had elevated anxiety
  • 37% had difficulty sleeping
  • 35% had mood swings
  • 30% had shorter tempers
  • 27% had headaches
  • 15% had skin breakouts
  • 12% had hair loss

Signs You’re Too Stressed

It is important to recognise that stress and pressure is part and parcel of planning for one of the biggest days of your life. It is highly unlikely you will meet a bride who has said that they didn’t find wedding planning stressful (and if you do, they’re lying). Some signs that you may be too stressed and on the verge of burn-out are:

  • You’ve got wedding on the brain – you are obsessing over the minor details all day, every day from when you’re in that work meeting, to when you’re lying in bed at night even so far as when you’re in the toilet
  • You start questioning all of your decisions – you want everything to be 100% right and you begin to overthink every decision you ever made
  • It’s not fun anymore – wedding planning is supposed to be fun and exciting, but it feels like more of a chore now
  • Your relationship with your partner is strained – you’re freaking out because your partner isn’t freaking out about all the things that could go wrong on the day and its affecting your relationship

It can be easy to lose the run of yourself and plans can spiral and become unmanageable. The best way to tackle this problem is to take a step back from the wedding and the venue picking, dress choosing, food tasting and band listening by making some time for yourself to relax. That way when you come back to it a few days’ time, you’ll have a fresh head and be able to approach your ideas much better and your wedding (and your guests) will thank you for it. Some of the best ways to beat the wedding stress include:

Get a Massage

A massage is not only a luxurious, indulgent break for both your body and mind, it also has proven health benefits and is well-recognised by healthcare professionals for its healing properties in the fight against stress, with many studies showing that massages reduce anxiety and depression.

Services like The Massage People who provide mobile massages in London and Match Skin Salon who offer Massages in Brighton & Hove are a great and cost-effective way to fit a massage in and get that golden relaxation time that your body and mind so desperately crave. What’s even better is that the therapists will always come to your specified London and address.

With loads of options of massages to choose from such as Swedish massage, Indian head massage, relaxation massages and full-body massages, it really is a relaxing experience like no other and a must for brides in the run-up to the big day. Why not kill two birds with the stone and incorporate some massages for you and the girls into your hen party or bridal shower?

Exercise

The benefits of this age-old remedy are two-fold: you’ll fight the creeping stress as well as contributing towards how good you’ll look in that dress on the day. Even something as simple as going for a walk is a great way to free your mind and will leave you feeling more focused and relaxed in the long-run (pun intended!).

Get a Good Night’s Sleep

Reserve seating plan woes and dress shade troubles for strictly the day time. Your bed is the place to be resting not planning so before you settle down for the night, put your wedding thoughts in a box, get into a comfy pair of PJs and relax so you’ll get a restful night’s sleep

Take a Break

Whether it’s rock-climbing, reading or going for a massage, set aside a few hours every week where wedding talk of any sort is under a strict ban and let your mind go elsewhere. Stick to the wedding planning in the designated hours.

And remember, no matter how stressed you are, wedding planning is a joyous occasion and a memory you’ll have for the rest of your life so make the most of the madness and try not to let the stress bog you down as your day will always be great in the end!

5 Skincare & Beauty Products Every Bride to Be Should Be Using

written by admin

Every Bride wants to walk down the aisle with glowing, clear skin for all to see – but for many brides – this takes time and effort. The secret (as with most things in life) to beautiful skin on your wedding day is proper preparation, and we recommend working out a beauty regimen up to 6 months in advance of your big day, so you can look your best on your big day.

Below, we run through five products which we recommend using during this period, as well as sharing a few tips to help you overcome any skincare issues you may be facing.

Cleanser

Cleansing should already be a big part of everybody’s skincare regimen. Ideally carried out twice a day, it’s the ideal product to wake you up ready for the day ahead, as well as help prepare you for sleep – removing the dirt and grime that your face has picked up during the day.

Cleansing is one of the most enjoyable, and refreshing parts of any skincare routine. There are literally hundreds of cleansers to choose from – so try and choose a cleanser which has been designed to work with your skin type, such as the Clarins Cleansing Milk – designed for use with combination & oily skin.

Moisturiser

We all know how important moisturising your skin is, it not only feels fantastic – it also reduces the chance of breakouts, whilst helping your skin stay looking nourished, healthy and most importantly young. Again, it’s important to choose a moisturiser specific to your skin type, keeping the nutrient level of the skin balanced.

Ideally, you should also use both daytime and nighttime moisturisers – which have different consistencies for complete skin nourishment. Those with limited time, should choose a brilliant all rounder – like the Clarins Restorative Day Cream – which is suitable for all skin types.

Masks

Face Masks are a fantastic way of achieving excellent skin results, in quick time frames. These intensive masks can serve a wide range of purposes – with some focussing on exfoliation, and others concentrating on moisturising. Moisturising face masks are some of our favourites, these masks gently envelop the skin with nutrients – leaving you feeling refreshed and your skin looking fantastic. The Clarins Extra-Firming Mask is a great choice.

Targeted Treatments

For those with specific skin issues and complaints, there is a range of targeted skincare products – which have been scientifically developed to deal with, and improve certain skin complaints. One of the most popular products within this targeted skincare range is the Clarins Mission perfection Serum. This Serum targets everything from discolouration to pigmentation, red marks left behind by breakouts as well as overall redness.

Eye Cream

Eye Cream does an excellent job of specifically targeting and improving the condition and feeling of the skin around the eyes. Reducing wrinkles, improving skin tone and reducing bags is all in a day’s work for a scientifically developed eye cream. The Clarins Firming Eye Wrinkle Smoothing Cream is a perfect all round eye cream.

If you have any questions or comments about skincare products, and how they can help your skin on the run up to your wedding – leave them below!

Wedding Lists: What to ask for & how to ask for it

written by admin

Getting married is one of life’s most stressful events, and this stress is always added to when deciding what to do for a wedding list. Some couples choose not to have a wedding list at all, others choose to ask for specific items, whilst others simply ask for a cash gift towards the cost of a honeymoon.

In our experiences, it’s always best to have a gift list – across a range of items across many different budgets. Having a list keeps your wedding gifts on track, helping you and your wedding guests in organising your gifts. Not having such a list can make it very difficult for your guests to decide what to buy you – taking the fun away from gift giving.

Historically, wedding lists would be a list of goods which would help the new married couple setup a home, and family life. Today however, with most couples living together before marriage – the traditional list of white goods, simply does not apply. Today, couples should ask for items they ‘want’ rather than simply ‘need’

Below, we run through some perfect ideas for wedding guests lists – which guests enjoy purchasing, and married couples enjoy receiving!


Luxury Gifts

One of the best types of gifts we like to give and receive, we class as ‘luxury gifts’ these gifts can be excellent versions of everyday items, as well as more unique pieces.

In the case of everyday luxury items, umbrellas, pens, stationery, wallets and purses are all excellent options. For the more opulent gifts – think luxury speakers, keepsake collection jewelry, watch winders as well as luxury glassware – allowing you to enjoy every tipple, that little bit more.


Luggage

One of the most important things to upgrade in every home, is the luggage. Although it may only be used a couple of times a year – old, tired luggage not only looks bad, but also underperforms when it comes to protecting your possessions, whilst being a real pain to lug around airports etc.

In sharp contrast, modern luggage sets do an excellent job of protecting your property, are easy to manoeuvre whilst looking great.


Homeware

Although we understand that you probably are not in desperate need of 5 toasters, 3 cutlery sets and a range of everyday glasses – your wedding represents the perfect time to upgrade a lot of your homeware & accessories. In choosing to upgrade these pieces, you can expect higher performance, easier cooking as well as added luxury and style.

Popular choices include Champagne Glasses, Dinner Sets as well as Cutlery Sets.


Bedding

Bedding is also another area in which you can bring everyday luxury into your life – there’s very few things better in life than climbing into fresh, clean and luxury bedding at the end of a long day – helping you drift off and wake up refreshed, and happy (even on Monday mornings!)

Vouchers as Wedding Gifts

The ideal way of being able to choose exactly what you want, is to ask your wedding guests to purchase you vouchers, at department stores which offer all of the above and more. You could also ask for service vouchers, such as for a cleaning service like Gleam Clean Specialists. This allows the guest to purchase you a proper gift. Whilst giving you the control to purchase exactly what you want and need yourself.

The Dress

Selecting The Best Shapewear For Your Dress

written by admin

You’ve spent months, years, planning your big day. The venue is perfect, the service planned to perfection, with caterers, photographer, musicians and entertainment booked. Everything is in place, to the final buttonhole. Many months ago you selected the perfect dress and it’s been altered to fit your frame at the last minute. However, while some brides will lose weight with the stress of planning the special day, some will undoubtedly lapse last-minute if they’re dieting or exercising to comfortably fit into their dress.

When it comes to the overall look on the day, underwear is as important as outerwear. As we all know, the correct shapewear can dramatically alter the look of an outfit, and this is never more true than on a brides’ wedding day. The average spend on a wedding dress in the UK is just under £1,400 and with all eyes on you, it’s really important to make sure you fit the dress perfectly. With numerous foundation garment options available, including plus size shapewear for curvy brides, making the right choice for you can be a challenge. In order to help you choose, we’ve compiled the following tips, to make sure you’re comfortable, sleek and elegant on the big day:

Select the correct strength

There are four levels of control available – light, medium, firm and extra firm. We recommend brides choose firm control, but this will depend on the level of boning within your dress. You need to be able to comfortably sit, stand and dance, while knowing your shape is being snuggly controlled.

Always choose your correct size

Make sure you get properly measured and select the correct size for you. Don’t think that choosing smaller sized shapewear will achieve greater contouring. By not fitting you properly it will wrinkle up, roll down and make you feel really uncomfortable. It will also cause unsightly bulges that will make you look bigger. If you feel you need more support, go for an extra firm control garment.

Cool down before putting on

Getting ready can take a while and even the coolest of brides can get hot and flustered. It’s best to get your hair and makeup done before wiggling into your shapewear. This will ensure you’ve cooled down a bit after the frenetic preparations. If you have the correct size but are struggling to get into the garment, try applying a little talc to the inside of the material.

Go nude

Nude and natural colours tend to work best under white, ivory or cream dresses, rather than white, which can show through. It’s therefore more important to match your skin tone than your dress, you’ll also tend to find there are more shapewear options in nude colours, giving you greater choice.

Know the areas you want to target

Depending on your body shape and the style of your dress, there are plenty of options to chose from:

* Full coverage – If you’re looking for streamlining and control from your bust to your knees, then consider purchasing a full body, full body suit or shaper slip. There are also open bust options, which allow you to wear your own bra, if you don’t require help lifting and shaping your cleavage.

* Cinch in the waist – If you’re wearing a strapless dress and your waist is your problem area, then waist cinchers can be worn to reduce your waist measurement by 1-3 inches; boned corsets will provide more extreme shaping.

* Tone your tummy, hips and bottom– To target these areas, control briefs are your best option. Among the most popular shapewear out there, these will smooth, streamline and enhance your shape. If you need shaping control from under your bust, choose a higher waisted style or for more extreme toning an open bust bodysuit. This style of shapewear is popular for slinky, fishtail dresses. Unless your dress is lined, go for seam free shapewear.

* Slim down those thighs – mid-thigh shapers are similar to control briefs but come down to your mid-thigh or knees. Just check they’re not visible under your dress, if you’ve gone for a cocktail or tea dress. You don’t want them captured by the wedding photographer!

Keep it a secret from the groom

As much as he loves you, we recommend that unless you’ve chosen pretty, lacy shapewear, you have something else to change into once the dress comes off. This is especially important if your shapewear is more Bridget Jones than Victoria’s Secret!

Planning The Perfect Spring Wedding

written by admin

Once again it’s spring time. That season of the year associated with many beautiful things, blooming flowers, sunny days, singing birds and, especially, the merry sound of wedding bells.

Nearly everyone would agree that the time between the months of April and June is the best time to have an outdoor wedding. The perfect temperature and beautiful weather is enough to make that special day unique. And, for those of you who are newly engaged and planning to have your nuptials this spring, here are a few tips to set you in the right direction.

Pray for the sun, but plan for the rain –

Getting married in spring is such a lovely idea, the weather is amicable on almost every occasion. However, there are a few times when the clouds want to be a part of the festivities and they send a few raindrops down. Since you can never know if the sunny skies may give way to rain, it is better to plan ahead. There is nothing wrong with having a covered platform in an outdoor wedding. And a nearby basket of umbrellas will not only keep the rain off guests’ clothing, they will also make for great photo shoot props. Of course it may not rain, but if it eventually does, it will neither spoil your day nor your dress.

Get inspiration from the elements –

Spring is probably the most beautiful season of the whole year. Beautiful flowers are in bloom, the grass and leaves are green and lush, and everywhere you turn you see vibrant colours. If you are planning to have an outdoor wedding this spring, let the vivid colors around you be your inspiration. For example, use soft pastel colours for your bridal train and use in season flowers to beautify the venue. RachelPally.com suggests combining contrasting colours with pastel, to give a more exciting look. Pairing one or two vivid colours with pastel will create a memorable picture.

Use the season to its fullest –

Spring brings with it an abundance of beautiful flowers, breathtaking views, and great tasting food. It would be a crime if you didn’t take full advantage of these spring gifts when planning for your spring wedding. At this time of the year, the flowers are so romantic, it’s like they were made for your wedding. And what’s more? All these things are less expensive during this period, there is no point importing.

Use flowers like peonies, lilac, garden roses, and any other seasonal flowers that catch your fancy to tell the story of spring at your wedding. Combine it with a vibrant menu made up of lamb and vegetables like asparagus, spinach, and scalloped potatoes. Strawberries will make for the icing on the cake, in a manner of speaking.

A spring themed wedding cake –

But, of course, what else could it be but a spring themed wedding cake? Here are some tips on how to pick the best wedding cake for your special day:

For your wedding in the spring, consider hiring a baker who can give you an outstanding cake decorated with beautiful flowers made from rice paper. Of course, these flowers are just decorative but a really good baker will make them look like the real thing. However, if you want something different, you can opt for a chocolate-covered cupcake instead of the traditional wedding cake.

Go creative on the favours –

To a lot of people, wedding favours are a chore, but it doesn’t have to be so. With a bit of creativity, you can add a personalised touch to your wedding favours. People already have too many trinkets and silver frames. You can give personalised champagne glasses, personalised matchboxes with matches, or even handmade candles. Or you can consider giving something that evokes spring, such as a packet of flower seeds they can plant in their garden and remember your special day, as they watch them grow.

Book early

Just like the summer, the weekends in spring are booked up pretty fast for weddings. So, if you plan on having a wedding in spring, it is a good idea to do your venue shopping fast, so you can book on time.

Apart from the venue, you may also need to plan ahead for the caterer, the venue decorators, and the whole gamut of logistics that must accompany a wedding. The moment you find a venue you love, quickly secure it with a deposit, so that it is kept free for your day. The same thing applies to the caterers, florist, decorators, and so on. Make a firm commitment by putting some money down, so that they will make their time available for your day.

Plan your budget –

Brides to be are not often comfortable sharing details of their wedding budget, because they feel that contractors such as the caterer, florist and decorators will be influenced by the budget. This is true up to a point. However, it is important that you plan your budget from the very beginning so that you know if there is the need to cut out a few things, or include others. It is better to plan with a lower budget and have extra cash available than to have to start looking for cash later to handle financial commitments. 

If you need a little help in saving up then this guide from Lending Expert gives some useful pointers. 

Finally

There is actually no better time to have a wedding than in the spring. Everywhere is just so beautiful, it makes the day more special. If you are planning for a wedding this spring, the ideas covered above will help you immensely.

Have a blissful union.

Wedding Bands – What’s the Worst That Could Happen?

written by admin

Most of us dream of a flawless, fairy tale wedding with all our friends and family celebrating together to our favourite tunes of all time. The fact that this dream isn’t always realised doesn’t mean that we don’t deserve all of this – there’s just so much to keep on top of, it’s easy to let something slip through your fingers. Rigid organisation approached with military precision is the key to a mishap-free celebration. Here are a few potential potholes that could disrupt your smooth ride in the run up to, on the day of and in the period following your glorious wedding:

PRE-WEDDING

Expensive early Booking

The early birds among you might think you’ll be getting the juiciest of worms by booking your wedding band months in advance, but this economy is false. Function bands adjust their rates all the time in accordance with current trends plus their own experience, and will most likely be loath to give you a quote for an event too far in the future. Moreover, they may not even wish to commit to the gig at all, as the fast-moving life of a musician features many unexpected twists and turns. Members come and go, as do bands themselves, and popular wedding bands are often inundated with offers and could be holding out for a more lucrative opportunity. To circumvent such flakiness, don’t book your wedding band more than a couple of months in advance tops. Then, you’ll get a realistic quote and still give your band plenty of time to prepare for your big day.

Last Minute Leftovers

If you take a “last minute dot com” approach to booking a wedding band, you could well end up with one heck of a good deal. But you could also end up with a band whose style is at odds with your personal tastes – and by this stage, there’s not much you can do about it. You’ll just have to pretend that you wanted you traditional white wedding to be scored by a heavy metal covers band. Worse still – you could end up with no band at all, and have no choice but to let your overexcited cousin – who’s been dying for a chance to show off his spinning skills – behind the decks. It’s better to be safe than sorry, even if it means paying a little extra.

WEDDING

Nowhere to Go

You’ve just arrived, fresh from your ceremony, with plenty of love in the air, at the venue of your reception. The place is teeming with aunties and caterers, the tables have been perfectly set, and there’s a beat-up transit van waiting for you in the carpark with four disgruntled musicians leaning against it. Not only is there no easy access to the reception room – the stage area is also barely big enough for the drums. And not for the first time – all too often are bands treated as an afterthought. Please make sure they know where they can unload and where they can set up their gear – and give them plenty of room to perform. Yes, your friends and family’s comfort will be at the forefront of your mind, but extra stress and cramped conditions will have a negative impact on your band’s performance. Have a chat with your band, describe your venue to them, and have someone on hand on the day to show them where to go.

Messed-Up Timings

You’re going to want things to run as close to clockwork as is humanly possible on your wedding day – stress levels are going to be running high enough without people showing up at the wrong place at the wrong time. While you’re going to have to be flexible on the day – you can’t predict things like illnesses or vehicular breakdowns – at least have the framework ready. You don’t want a situation where the father of the bride tries to address the room while the band are still in full swing and your guests are still dancing; likewise, you wouldn’t want the announcement that you’re about to cut the cake to be drowned out by your specially chosen 80s cheese playlist. Make sure everyone has a copy of the same schedule – and make sure everyone has their phones switched on in the event of changes.

You also don’t want your wedding band to show up too late or too early – your guests will either be welcomed by an empty room, or a group of bored and annoyed band members. Give your wedding band the rundown of your wedding in advance, and warn them of any possible delays, and ask them to do the same for you – this way, you won’t be wasting each other’s time.

First Dance Disasters

An event second only to the bridal procession in iconic importance, the first dance is something you really don’t want to go wrong. Can you imagine looking into your partner’s loving eyes, waiting with baited breath for those first magical chords of your special song to chime in, only for an awkward, tentative count in followed by the sound of uncertain fingers struggling to find their place on the fretboard to shatter the spell instead? It is imperative that you let your band know in good time exactly what you’re expecting from them, or you’ll set yourself up for a horror show. As an additional safety measure, have your first song ready at hand on an iPod or similar handheld device, just in case your wedding band isn’t confident they can do it justice.

Unwelcome Requests

Wedding bands have differing views on this. Yes, it’s your wedding, and you have an entitlement to have whatever music you like – but, then again, they’ve played loads of weddings, and they know from experience what works and what doesn’t. It’s much safer to agree on what’s to be played in advance, so the band can prepare accordingly. There’s nothing worse for a wedding band than a drunken uncle stumbling up to the stage,  grabbing the bassist by the shirtsleeve and demanding that they play his favourite 80s power ballad, then insisting that of course they do know it despite the band’s best efforts to shake him off and continue playing the song he’s interrupting. Hopefully this won’t happen at your wedding, but the point remains that while seasoned wedding bands will have seen it all before, it’s not safe to assume that your guests can just waltz up to them whenever they feel like it – so please make this known to them.

POST-WEDDING

Money Disputes

With wedding bands, you really do get what you pay for – so once you’ve got it, it’s time to pay for it. A professional wedding band will have put a great deal of time and effort into honing their performance and putting together their set list, and usually will have given you a quote beforehand based on this along with the level of experience they’ve achieved and the amount of time they’re required to be present for on the day.

However, things rarely go exactly according to our best laid plans. Things can easily overrun or change, and if you need your band for longer than expected, or require an additional service from them that wasn’t previously agreed, they’re going to want paying for it. Remember: you’re on their time. If you want them to throw in a DJ set and they’ve not expressly told you that it’s free, you can’t expect it to be. Also, if you want them to play a set earlier on, then the planned second set gets pushed back, that’s eating into the time they could be spending on other pursuits. Throw into the mix the stress and tiredness, and you’ll be faced with quite an irritable bunch of people unless you cough up!

Now you know what can go wrong, you can hopefully take measures to prevent such things from happening. Just remember – forewarned is forearmed. And while it may seem like having four arms would be a godsend when you’re juggling so many different responsibilities, all you really need when it comes to booking your wedding band is a solid plan and some strong, regularly exercised communication skills.

10 Awesome Entertainment Ideas That Your Wedding Guests Will Love

written by admin

No one will hate you for being selfish on your own wedding day because, after all, it’s your wedding day and the focus is you. However, your guests deserve recognition, they shouldn’t feel neglected or feel like they could be spending their time doing something better if not for your invitation.

The concept of time won’t even cross their mind if they are having more than enough fun. What they will remember, and keep talking about when your name comes up at the end of the day, is the way they felt at your wedding ceremony, and not how your wedding specifically looked.

The thought of sitting amidst a sea of strange faces is already exhausting, not to mention going through another monotonous routine in the name of a wedding ceremony. Spice things up, deviate a little from what’s obtainable, create sparks that will leave your guests spellbound, and make your wedding a grand event.

If all of that seems too complicated, or too difficult for you to handle, you can always hire the services of a trusted entertainment agency. An agency that perfectly understands that moments gone by are the antecedents of memories, and incredible moments beget unforgettable memories.

Here are ten awesome entertainment ideas that your guests will love, and that will make your wedding an unforgettable event

  1. Photo Booths

Photo booths are popular for a good reason. At weddings, they are a great way to have fun and to also create lasting memories. It’s fun to put up props in a photo booth, and the hilarious photos your guests take will make them laugh long after the event has passed. The pictures will also serve as good reminders of the fun they had at your wedding.

  1.     Casino Royale

This is one of the best ways to break the ice and stop your guests from being aloof and staying apart from each other. At the casino table, they get to chat with each other as they find some common ground. Not to worry, all you need do is provide some fake money that they can play with. Despite the fact that it’s not real, seeing the amount of money they can make in one night will have them really excited.

  1. Ice Cream Stall

Everyone loves ice cream, fresh and delicious ice cream to tamper down the heat on a hot summer day. If you’re having a summer wedding, don’t forget to include this treat. Both your adult and child guests will thank you for it.

  1.   Bouncy Castles

Bouncy castles never fail to make both the children and the adults at your wedding laugh. Who doesn’t enjoy the idea of playing in a bouncy castle? Hardly anyone. There will be so much laughter!

Companies like Jump 4 Adan offer various types of bouncy castles ideal for occasions like these, from combined bouncers and dry slides to completely customized designs.

  1.   Magicians

Skilled magicians know how best to engage the minds of your guests, how to keep them occupied as they try to figure out the magician’s tricks. If you want guests that won’t be yawning. and eager to go home, hire skilled magicians to do the trick.

  1. Wedding DJ

Don’t just hire anyone who claims to be a DJ, if you do, you might be in for a huge disappointment. A good DJ should know the perfect music to play, that will keep guests on their feet all night. Of course, there can’t be a wedding without good music.

  1.   Live Bands

If DJs don’t cut it for you, you can always go for a live wedding band. The most important thing is for you and your guests to have a special and incredible evening. A live band consisting of individuals who understand the definition and importance of good music will ensure that you have an exceptional wedding.

  1.    Wedding Nannies

Children often become easily bored of wedding formalities and when they do, they either start disturbing their parents or causing unwanted distractions. As a result, your adult guests will have their attention divided, and won’t be able to fully enjoy all the goodies you’ve put together for them. Hiring the service of a wedding nanny is the best way to avoid this situation. They will keep your little guests entertained and give their parents breathing space.

  1. Solo Musicians

Hiring a solo musician is the best alternative for couples that can’t afford to hire a live band at their wedding, but want live music. A talented solo musician will keep your guests entertained and also provide a beautiful ambiance for your wedding ceremony.

  1. Firework Displays

Mind-blowing firework displays are such a romantic way of bringing a beautiful and perfect day to an end. Everyone loves an incredible display of fireworks, and you can never go wrong by ending your special day with this type of show.

It’s your wedding day, don’t forget to make it memorable for both you and your guests.
