We’re a week or so into the New Year and I stumbled onto this great blog post, “Resolutions For The Newly Engaged,” on Huffington Post Weddings.
Although all of the resolutions are great words of advice for Kansas City wedding couples planning their wedding reception, I took special note of Resolution #9, “Resolve To Celebrate Who You Both Are.”
The author’s words, “This doesn’t need to conflict with resolving to compromise, but listen, you only do this once….If you are quirky, don’t be afraid to be quirky. If you are formal, be formal. Celebrate Culture, Celebrate Faith, Celebrate the things that made you love one another” are elements I encourage in the couples I work with.
There are no rules when it comes to how you celebrate your happiness. Don’t let anyone or any trend hold you back from being who you are or from celebrating your wedding reception in your way.
I also love Resolution #10, Remember, personal is not generic and inspiring doesn’t mean replicating.
As the author states “Somewhere, personalizing a wedding (making it seem reflective of your personalities and unique to the two of you) got confused with slapping a monogram on anything that was imprintable and replicating every cute idea seen around the blogosphere. Use blogs to inspire, but try, really try to make it personal.”
The creative process knows no bounds. From out of the ordinary wedding attire, to fun little surprises that engage your guests and special, memorable, picture perfect moments that frame your amazing love for one another, your limitless imagination is your greatest tool for making your wedding so very personal.
