Wedding Wednesday: Destination Celebrations

Are you tired of attending the same type of wedding weekend to weekend? Do you want your wedding to be "different" than the others you've attended? If so, a destination wedding may be right for you!

Here are some ideas and tips for a destination wedding!

1. Decide on your location: look on websites like tripadvisor.com for real-people opinions of resorts. read through the reviews to get an overall impression of your destination choice. 

2. Keep guests in mind: Questions you need to ask yourself before planning your destination wedding include can grandma/grandpa travel that far? Can guests afford airfare and resort stay?

3. Watch your numbers: Some resorts requre a certain number of guests to book the space; while other resorts only have a limited amount of space available for wedding ceremonies or receptions. 

4. Know your destinations wedding rules:  There may be residency requirements or paperwork needs that you cannot fulfill. Some couples have a legal union at home and a nonbinding ceremony at the destination site. 

5. Figure out what is included in the package price: Some resorts only include the ceremony/reception site. Couples may have to pay extra for food, flowers, decor and more. 

6. Hire an event planner: Decide if you want to do everything yourself, or if you want planning help or day-of help. It is highly suggested to have an event planner at a destination wedding, especially so you can concentrate on your big day! 

7. Hairdresser, make up artist and photographer: These are all people that should travel with you to your destination. Unless you like to take chances, it is highly suggested to bring them along. 

and finally...

8. Tell everyone you're getting married: When checking in for flights, or making hotel arrangements, make sure to let people know about the big day! Hopefully you'll be able to score a big upgrade, if available!

Last minute Wedding Details!

Hello all brides or future brides! Another Wedding Wednesday is upon us! We have come up with some last minute wedding details to take care of before the big day so that you can enjoy your day with ease!

1. Assign a point a person! This is crucial. Whether it's your maid of honor or a relative, it is important to have somebody there for you to do all the little things! You might choose a relative over your maid of honor if you want your maid of honor to be at your side and keep you calm! The point person can be in charge of:

    -Telling family about reserved seating

    - Someone to collect gifts and telling everyone to sign the guest book

    - Putting overnight or honeymoon bags in car

    - Picking up your dress after the wedding! (You obviously aren't going to take it with you on the honey moon so you need someone to hold on to it for you)

 

Here are some other things not to forget!

1. Remembering a pretty hanger for your dress

2. Packing your cell phone charger- A lot of stressed out friends and relatives may call for directions or other questions so make sure you have a fully charged phone! You may want to put one of your bridesmaids in charge of answering it though :)

3. Vendor Contact List: If you are working with multiple vendors on your wedding day, it will be useful to have their contact information on hand. Hand the full vendor list over to your point person, or keep the list in your wedding emergency kit, just in case.

4. Bringing extra cash and international travel documents - You may want to tip your hairdresser, the band, or a bellhop! 

6. Writing your thank-you speech- Even though it is not required to give a big lengthy speech, it is a good idea to thank you guests for attending as well as your bridal party and parents!

7. Packing an emergency day-of kit, including a back up CD!

8. Making a "Just Married" sign or put a crafty friend in charge of that ;)

9. Of course- don't forget Something Old, Something New, Something Borrowed and Something Blue!

10. Bringing your cake cutter- The caterer's might not be as nice!

11. Creating an itinerary- You may know where to be at all times but create an itinerary for your guests and out of town relatives so they know how much time they have inbetween the ceremony and reception and if they should eat in between!

22. Marriage Certificate! This is actually the most commonly forgotten thing!

Of course, don't forget the big things like booking a DJ, band, or photographer! Contact Breezin' Entertainment for all your entertainment needs! Contact us at 813-348-4998 or breezin.com

Who are your picks for the Oscars this year?

It's that time of year again when the best films of the year are recognized at the Oscars!  Who are your favorite picks? 

 

The nominees this year for best picture feature some really great motion pictures, but only one can take the cake! My vote is for Silver Linings Playbook!  There's something about Bradley Cooper and Jennifer Lawrence's performances that reel you in.  This feel-good movie is one you shouldn't miss!

 

Why not throw an outdoor bash featuring some past Oscar winning movies with Breezin Entertainment!  Our DJ will set up a blow up movie screen and entertain your guests all night long.  A Marlon Brando movie would be perfect for a 50's themed party that is sure to be remembered all year long!

New Event Ideas

It doesn't have to be summer for you to embrace the trend of serving up fruity, tropical cocktails. Go for classics like tequila sunrises and mai tais or work with your caterer  for newer variations on old-school favorites like singapore slings or planter's punch. You could really get into the theme by designation a separate bar to serve the tropical punches in coconut shell cups with colorful straws and fruit garnishes.

Want to make your next event a Breeze? Call 813-348-4998!
