Ceremony Ritual - Ring Warming

My job as a wedding blogger and wedding planner is to share great information I find.  When I read this blog, I just had to share this with you.  If I ever tie the knot, this will definetly be apart of my ceremony.

Looking for a way to pesonalize your wedding ceremony or step away from other traditions? Well I think you will love this idea, Ring Warming Ceremony posted by Interfaith Minister by the name of Dawn.  During a ring warming, the couple’s wedding rings are passed among their guests, who are asked to say a prayer or make a wish for the couple over the rings while holding them. Read her post for helpful advice and more how to have a ring warming ceremony for your wedding.

Ask The Planner


Here's a question that I received as a comment for my post on Destination Weddings

Q: Thanks soooo much for doing this post. I have been thinking loooong & hard about this option!

D, I've decided that I want to have a destination wedding with a really grand reception/party for all my family & friends when I get back. Now of course pricing can be high no matter what you do (depending on how BIG you do things) however I was looking at this option as a way to save $$. Do you think this is a smart plan or is this just as expensive (generally speaking) as a traditional church wedding/reception?  Keep in mind that I plan on having approx. 25-30 ppl at the destination.

A: A destination wedding will definitely cut the cost of your wedding. Like you said, the cost can still get high depending on the choices you make but generally speaking it can cut cost. If your only reason for having a destination wedding is to cut cost than it would defeat the purpose if you come home and have a grand reception. If you want to have a reception/party when you return for those who couldn’t make it there are ways to do it without it being too pricey.


1) Instead of the tradition wedding reception, host a cocktail party. Serve heavy hor’douvers instead of a 3 course meal. Have a lounge style seating with couches and high ball tables. Have simple but elegant décor. This will decrease the cost of servers, food and floral.

2) If you leaning towards the summer months, you can host a barbeque and still make it look like a wedding celebration. It can casual but still elegant.

3) Remember, you already had a wedding so keep in mind that some of the traditions elements that add to the cost can be eliminated. So as exciting as it may be, resist the urge to hire a photographer, videographer, expensive invitations and so on. Keep it simple, remember you are already married. This party will be an extended celebration

Another Satified Customer

I love all my clients and every time I work with a couple, I feel like family.  This was especially true when I worked with Teasha & Nigel for their August 2009 wedding of 400 guest.  Teasha was one of the sweetest brides I've even met and her family made me feel so welcomed.  Thanks Teasha for your heartfelf words!!

Reception Décor – Table Numbers

Small touches at your wedding make a big difference. Instead using the black and white stand a reception venue will supply you; use these silver numbers that can be inserted into your centerpiece. This small detail will give your table a wow factor your guests will be sure to talk about.

You can find these table numbers at The Wedding Outlet.
