We will be parting from some traditions for our wedding while maintaining others. Here are a few decisions that have been made thus far:
- Brian and I will be seeing each other prior to the ceremony to take pictures. We did this for a number of reasons. We want to get pictures taken at a location other than Patriot Hills which would be difficult to accomplish any other way given that the ceremony and reception are both at the same location. We want our wedding party (and ourselves) to be able to attend the cocktail hour and spend time with their (our) families.
- There will not be a Head Table for the same reasons mentioned above. Everyone will be seated with their family, spouse or significant other. Brian and I will be seated at a smaller table together.
- We will not be doing a bouquet or garter toss. We are looking into possible alternatives but are not sure there will even be a substitute.
- There will be a Memory table set up with candles or flowers for loved ones we wish would have been able to attend but can not.
- The bridesmaids (and flower girls) will be able to pick out the styles of their dresses. I will choose a color, fabric and designer (to ensure the colors actually match) and the bridesmaids will be able to pick the style that they feel most comfortable wearing.
That is all for now!
