Are you prepared in every aspect of your wedding? Well, let us help you. Here are 5 helpful hints that will help you through your special day. Some may sound silly, but believe us, these things are often forgotten. Enjoy! Look at each other during your ceremony, NOT your officiant Sounds like a no-brainer, right?

Naked Cakes…?

A wedding cake design that bares all- introducing the naked cake! Now before you go jumping to conclusions, let me explain what I mean by this. A traditional wedding cake has frosting on the outside, but the naked wedding cake uses frosting in a different way.

So lather up with a non-greasy sunscreen and stay in the shade as much as possible when taking your photos. Trust me, your pictures (and skin) will thank you. Fans at the ceremony. Place a small, handheld fan on each guest’s chair so they can stay cool during the ceremony. Better yet, have them double as a ceremony program! A backup boutonniere for the [...]
