Vendor Roles: Who handles what on your wedding

We have all heard the old saying, “It is good luck if it rains on your wedding day”, but have you heard why? Because a wet knot is harder to untie. How cute?!

We know that might not be the first thing that pops into your head if it is actually raining on your wedding day. It’ll probably be something like worrying about your hair, makeup, flowers, guests, ceremony, and the whole 9 yards.

Kick off your weekend of celebrating with a super fun rehearsal dinner. Whatever your vibe, budget, or guest count, there are always ways to jazz up the evening before your big day and make it super fun as well. We have helped coordinate so many welcome/rehearsal dinners, so we decided to compile a list of our favorites so you can get years of experience and ideas in a five-minute read. Ready, set, GO!

It’s your wedding day, do what you want! If you’re anything like me, that means eating a lot of sweets! You can splurge on a three-tiered cake, call up your favorite ice cream cart, get your grandma’s secret recipe, or do espresso martinis. If you’re somewhere in between (or already know exactly what you want) we’ve got some tips and tricks for you to think about to make sure your wedding day is as sweet as possible! See what we did there ;)

Linens shouldn’t be complicated. You want a pretty fabric, without wrinkles, in a gorgeous color to serve as the backdrop to the rest of your event decor. If easy isn’t your thing, here are a few other reasons to book your linen rentals with Dedicated Linen…

You’re knee-deep (or maybe even shoulder-deep) in planning your wedding, and this idea keeps popping up: Do we do a first look or not? Both sides have pros and cons, and that is what we will discuss in this blog. Some people love them, some people hate them, and some people might not have a clue what it is (no shame!). We will explain IT ALL, so sit back, grab your favorite planning snack (M&Ms are a fav), and let’s hash out all of the details of doing a first look on your wedding day!

They say music sets the tone, so let’s make it a happy, intimate party because after all, it is YOUR DAY! This is a list of all the specific times you need songs during your big day (for a more traditional wedding). Obviously, you can pick and choose which ones you want to keep and which you don’t. We also provided a couple of examples for each, but these are really moments to make the day authentically you. If there is a song you and your boo love to jam out to then play it! You don’t have to play what everyone else does.

Where do your guests spend the most time at during your wedding? The dinner table. Now this does depend on the wedding, maybe you want a short dinner so you have more time dancing, or maybe you are just having a coffee and tea reception, but for the majority of weddings, dinner is the longest time guests are in one place. So, as any good host, we want to make this a time of laughter, connection, eating good food, and celebrating. This blog will have our top tips for making the perfect table setting, with our NUMBER ONE TIP at the end. So turn on that planning playlist and let’s dive in.
