Are you ready to get started and go over some options we love?

Involving Friends and Family

Many people choose to involve their friends and family in their wedding and there are alot of different ways that you can make this happen. Take a look at the following options and see if any of them could be right for your big day.

Reading

Having someone read something during your ceremony is a traditional option and a great way to directly include people in your wedding. If you want, you could even have someone read something at your ceremony and then have someone else read something at your reception. This is just an option, but it can be a great way to include others and show them how much they mean to you.

 

Consider thinking about if there’s a passage that is meaningful to you as a couple.

Getting Ready

Having friends and family getting ready can be meaningful and fun! Consider inviting those that are close to you to help you get ready and help with any last minute preparations that may need to happen.

Photos

One easy way that you can include friends and family is by being intentional about getting photos taken with them. One great touch is including those photos in your thank you notes, as this can be meaningful and a great way to remember your big day.

Special Dances

If you love dancing, then why not incorporate that into your wedding?

 

Having a special dance for the people in your life can be really fun and a great opportunity for photos. Consider thinking about those in your life and whether or not a special dance would make sense for your big day.

Picking Out the Wedding Dress

Inviting friends and family to pick out your wedding dress can be a great option. Make sure that you only invite people whose opinions you trust, so that you can feel confident in the advice dn the direction that you’re given by those who attend.

Cake Tastings

If you’re not looking to have a lot of people at your wedding dress selection, then including some people in the cake tasting is another great option! We love this option because it’s a great way to include those who you’re close to and show them that their opinion matters to you. Plus, who does love cake?!
