Wedding Ceremony Rehearsal

Wedding Ceremony Rehearsal

This, for me, is very important and I always encourage my clients to schedule it with the entire Bridal Party, including everyone that will walk down the aisle, and also, the ones that will have part with a reading and/or escorting a family member. I suggest this takes place one to two days prior to the wedding day. It usually takes approximately 35 to 45 minutes. Your Wedding Planner should be there, of course, to guide you all through the steps. 

The rehearsal is the perfect time to familiarize with what you'll all be doing, as well as to help you all get more comfortable in your spot. It will also show the parents/grandparents where exactly they will be sitting, and where they should go when they're done walking down the aisle. Always consider and schedule with your Wedding Planner a Wedding Ceremony Rehearsal, so your entire Bridal Party will feel comfortable on the day of the Wedding. They will appreciate it!

- Is this Love, Bob Marley
- For once in my life, Stevie Wonder
- Crazy little thing called love, Queen
- Cheerleader, Omi

Pet Friendly Wedding

The Beautiful Bride and the Best Man, Gucci. He did so amazing! 🐕  

After you have assured your Wedding venue is Pet-Friendly, here are some great Tips to consider: 
1) Ask a trusted family/friend ahead of time to oversee your dog that day. Important!!! 
2) The wedding day outfit should remain minimal and comfortable. Do a trial prior to the day!!! 
3) Cast your dog in the appropriate role. Best Man or Ring Bearer, perhaps. 
4) Be sensitive to non-dog people. 
5) Don't forget their eating, potty and nap time.

Hire a Professional Wedding Planner

Ask yourself these questions before you decide that you will coordinate your own Destination Wedding and not hire a Professional Experienced Wedding Planner.

“Have you ever planned more than one wedding before?”

“Do you have the time to plan a wedding?”

"Do you know how many hours it requires to plan a wedding?"

“Do you have any contacts abroad?”

“Do you have any experience checking: contracts, vetting suppliers, visiting venues, verifying their insurances and credentials and what assurance do you have of their professionalism at your wedding?”

*These are only just a few questions to answer before you put on your Wedding Planner's cape.

"Day of the Wedding" Coordinator

You have planned everything, and you need someone to run the show so you can relax and enjoy the big day. 

These are my duties as a "Day of the Wedding" Coordinator: 
- I will introduce myself to your vendors and get an idea of what to expect on the wedding day. 
- I will review your contracts and understand exactly who is doing what and when. 
- I will create your day-of timeline, which will break down all the details regarding arrival times, setup and breakdown. 
- I will do a site visit with you both.
- Discuss all of the details you have planned to get an idea of how you envision the space on your wedding day. 
- The day before your wedding, I will run your ceremony rehearsal. 
- On your wedding day, I will be there to take care of everything. 
- Distribute the final payments/tips to the vendors.
- At the end of the evening, I will pack all of your goodies up (cake knives, flutes, gifts, etc.)

The Day after the Wedding

Picture this: 
The day after the Wedding, after a nice rest, meet with the family/friends for a nice brunch and then head out for a half-day trip to the local keys around Fajardo. 
Can you imagine it? Ü 
This is one of the many services/trips that my friends at @aquaadventurepr offer to my clients. This is a great alternative you can consider for the days prior to the wedding or after the wedding day. Puerto Rico is an entire experience.

Love and Sparkle

Happy 3rd Anniversary to Kristina and Shane. 
They had their beautiful Destination Wedding at the Hacienda Campo Rico. They made sure their guests had the "Puerto Rico Wonderful Experience" (as I like to call it), through out their entire stay. They had a blast!!!

Pineapples for the Bridesmaids

How cute this idea, right? 

The Bride hand out fresh Pineapples to her Bridesmaids to walk the isle with, instead of flowers bouquets. Then, we used them to complement the Reception decor tables. I truly loved the idea. And by the way, the delicious smell was through out.
