‼️💍 WEDDING WEDNESDAY 💍‼️

Your wedding party aren’t just there for the matching ’fits! They’re your support squad, emotional backup, and personal hype team! Here’s what they really sign up for:

✨Help with planning tasks: Think dress or suit shopping, DIY projects, and hen/stag/sten prep.

✨Be present for key moments: From fittings to the pre-wedding events, and right up to the first dance, their support matters.

✨Keep the couple calm: Especially on the morning of the wedding.

✨Make sure they both eat & stay hydrated: Someone’s got to hand them a snack mid-chaos!

✨Bring the energy: From getting ready to the last dance, they set the tone.

✨It’s more than a title: It’s a role filled with love, laughter, and late-night group chats.

Couples: save this to share with your wedding party in the run up to the big day or tag them in the comments! 💬👇

Choosing your venue sets the tone for your entire day, here’s what to consider before saying yes:
✨Guest Capacity – Will it comfortably fit everyone on your list?
✨Weather Backup: Does the venue offer a covered or indoor alternative?
✨Legal Weddings: Are they registered with the HSE as a legal wedding venue (if necessary)?
✨Lighting & Sound: Is the space well-lit and good for speeches?
✨Decor Restrictions: Any limits on candles, confetti, or hanging décor?
✨Overtime Charges: What’s the policy if the party runs late?

Which of these would be a dealbreaker for you? 👀

‼️💍 WEDDING WEDNESDAY 💍‼️

Sunset Ceremony: Romantic golden hour glow, perfect for dreamy photos. 🌅

Daytime Ceremony: Bright, airy, and full of natural light. ☀️

Both have their own magic, but which one would you choose?

Or, have the best of both worlds…if your photographer is staying for the first dance you could ask them to take some pics during that lull between dinner and dancing, to take advantage of that golden hour gorgeousness 🤩

Hi Everyone, it’s Wedding Wednesday again! Feel free to get in touch to chat through your wedding ceremony options! Grá Mór 💖

‼️💍 WEDDING WEDNESDAY 💍‼️

The first kiss is always anticipated as the big celebration after the pronouncement of a newly married couple. Why not throw in a first hug at the top of the aisle, before making your way down through your guests, out the door and into the bright beautiful world together? A simple hug can mean so much… a silent promise, a feeling of care and support, and the start of a lifetime leaning on each other. Or, switch the two and hug after the pronouncement and kiss before you leave! Do it your way!

Would you include a first hug on your big day?
