Considering that this is an event which you will look back at forever and will celebrate among friends and family for years to come, a wedding is a very special event. There is a lot of research that goes into planning and executing a wedding, and scrolling through Instagram, taking notes from your favorite wedding accounts is nothing less than research, and don’t let anyone tell you otherwise! While inspiration doesn’t have to be a direct representation of something, it can lead to similarly inspired or even better versions of the said inspiration, which is truly amazing when we think about it. It is fascinating to think that you never truly know how inspiration will result in. So it is important to keep in mind that while inspiration is a spark behind creativity, it is up to you what you make of the said spark, and where your special brand creativity takes it.

Out-of-the-Box Engagement Party Ideas and Inspirations

Sharing a monumental instance in your life with your close ones makes it all the more special. Studies show that having close connections not only makes you happier, but it also helps you to live a longer, happier, and more fulfilling life. Your inner circle of family and friends has witnessed all the highs and lows of your life and with such a high waltzing into your life, it’s only fair to have the close ones nearby to celebrate this day with the glory that this day calls for. While you can have a cozy intimate setting and celebrate your special day with a simple dinner, there are several other ways you can make your engagement party a raging success- the kind that people will not forget!

•  Beach Party: What can be more perfect than the slated golden hour reflecting off the sea while your close friend and family meet up for a sunset bonfire on the beach. Add in s’mores opportunities in good measure, beach games, and some fancy tropical drinks. You can add in some live acoustic music to the music for the perfect bonfire vibes. Soak in the golden sun as you retell your compelling proposal story. As the sun goes down, let the sun pop up with the brightest of pinks and orange, as the bonfire takes the fire and cast an iridescent glow on everyone. This will be one engagement party that will forever be etched on your guests’ minds.

•  Idyllic Train Ride: How about taking your friends and family on a fun whimsical ride? Imagine having your close ones on a short train ride through the countryside. Imagine an idyllic winding track through the rolling hills as you sit up cozy with your close ones, toasting your engagement. Fancy it up by bringing in the luxury appetizers. Do a bit of research and find yourself the perfect route and best novelty train to suit your purpose.

•  Give Back: When all the joys of the world seem within your arms reach, the best thing you can do is give back! Not only is it in the lines of gratitude and sharing the joy, but it is also environmentally friendly when you are giving back to the planet. Think along the lines of ethically sourced food and decor done by local artisans. Give of scratch-off cards that donate to a charity or potted plants. Your heart will be full and happy by the end of the evening.

•  Put Your Mask On: Leave the low-key for the novices and go for full-on drama! Infuse mystery into your engagement party by going for an elaborate, elegant masquerade ball in celebration of your engagement. Have your guests dressed to the max and be adorned with elaborate masks. The drama can also set the perfect mood for getting your ‘Save Your Dates’ clips shot by our engagement videographers. Win-win!

•  Scavenger Hunt: Infuse fun into your engagement party by arranging a well-planned out scavenger hunt. This is the perfect way to get everybody in an interactive and spirited state of mind. Design a string of clues that will lead your guests from one relationship milestone of yours to another, with the final clue declaring your engagement. This will not get your friends and family in a competitive spirit and will have your guests talking for ages.

•  Sail On: If you want to turn it on and do things the perfect way, with a luxurious undercurrent, invite your friends and family for a leisurely sunset sail. Imagine endless blue water, the sun on your shoulder as you all toast to your engagement. The atmosphere is intimate and relaxed and the pressure is off. Hire a reputed caterer to keep the savories and bubbly, while you lay back and take the sun and the setting in.

The idea is to ensure that the guests present are the people who really have your best interest in their hearts. And as the day comes to an end, you feel like you have celebrated with people who truly care. And when they drive back home, there is a smile on their faces, matching the one in your face as you wrap the day up! There are so many engagement party ideas out there for you to get inspiration from.

Ways to Spread the Love After You Say ‘Yes’!

The man who has your heart got down on his knee and asked you the question! Both of you said yes to being a plus one forever, saving each other a seat at every table, laughing at the same stories, and making new ones along the way.

 

It is surely an epiphany in itself, realizing you want to share your life with someone, and some would say it is a more monumental event than the wedding itself, and we would agree! Since you have made this sliding door decision of your life, there are many things you can do to celebrate your relationship away from the crowd before the wedding activities take over.

 

This is the ‘calm before the storm’, so enjoy it and make it perfect so you always look back at it with fond memories for years to come.

 

•  Revisit and Relive: Take a winding trip down the memory lane with your fiance and acknowledge and revel on how far you have come.  You can do an exclusive version of your first date together by booking the entire place for the evening and recreating the magic. Order the same dishes, wine, and dessert as you did on your first day and we guarantee you will feel the butterflies again. Add in some celebratory bubbly and voila! What better way to celebrate the day than going full circle?

•  Spa Date: The next few months will be nothing short of crazy, so take this opportunity to slot in a spa date with your man into your planner. Book a luxurious day in the spa and head out with your fiance for a relaxing couple’s massage to melt all the chaos away.  It will not only act as a pause button and let you soak in the peacefulness before the wedding planning starts but will also let you soak into each other’s exclusive presence. Add in a facial or a manicure to complete the spa session, sit back, sip your champagne and relax!

•  Just-engaged Session: While that just-engaged glow is still working for you, get some pictures clicked with your fiance. Whether you want to take tons of adorable selfies, or go all out with a professional photographer, make sure you capture the spark in your eyes forever in photo squares. Bonus: Not only do these pictures make an adorable keepsake, but they will also be charming engagement announcements or save-the-dates.

•  Take a Trip Together: Escape the world for a few days and bask in that new tingling feeling of being just engaged. Fly to a beachy location on the other side of the world or check in to a luxury hotel in the same city for a stay-cation- whatever your and your fiance’s schedule allow. You can also rent a yacht and sail through the water and soak in some sun while you unwind. Sneak in some quality time before the mayhem of wedding planning sets in. Also, it is an apt way of sealing the deal and getting a tiny taste of the honeymoon ahead!

•  Host a Soiree: Happiness multiplies when shared with people who have nothing but good vibes for you. Have some of your closest people over and celebrate this momentous event with some exquisite champagne and finest of delicacies. Ensure this soiree has just the choicest of your inner circle, soak in the happy feeling of being around the people you cherish before you make a formal announcement!

 

Your day of engagement is one to be forever marked on the calendar and will hold special significance for years to come. Take time to breathe in, soak in the happiness, and stretch out that post-engagement bliss a little longer. We dare you to indulge a little before you declare your news. Enjoy before wedding preparations unfold!

Why is Investing in a Wedding Video Worth it?

A wedding day is potentially the most anticipated day of one’s life. It is a social declaration in front of everyone you hold close in your life, that you and your spouse are each other’s ride or dies, for as long as ‘forever’ lasts. It is a day you will want to live and relive for years to come! You will talk about this day whenever you make friends and are sitting together cozily, swapping stories. You will talk about this day when your grandkids are wrapped around your armchair, begging for the story to be retold for the umpteenth time. You will want to hold to those moments forever in your heart as your wrinkles grow deeper and the memories grow fainter.

 

And sometimes the photo squares in the album are not quite doing it, as they can only capture so much. However, a cinematic representation of the day went by can really transport you to the day, making it a memoir for you to revisit for decades to come. It can act as a time capsule, encapsulating your memories, your high points, and the cracking emotions in a perfect movie. It might cost you a little more to get a panoramic video made, but can you really put a price tag on memories? Let us go through some reasons why wedding videos are definitely a good investment:

 

•  Play-by-play of the day: As witnessed by many married couples, the wedding day goes by very fast. Most people say their wedding day is a giant blur of activities and they don’t remember what went on exactly. Having a dedicated video acting as a reference point and a play-by-play of how the day went is just about perfect. It reminds you of the trivial details of the day which will make you smile in years to come. Investing in a wedding videographer lets you relive your special day, even when your memory fails you.

•  People make a wedding: The guests of the wedding day are essentially the people who make the wedding a special event that it is. Seeing the friendly faces of your well-wishers will warm your heart and remind you how important these souls are in your life. As it is the close circle of people who make a wedding more special, having them forever captured in your wedding video will make you cherish them more.

•  The promise encrypted: While the wedding might have a lot of moments to cherish, the most monumental one has to be the ceremony. As the vows are shared between the couple and the promise of forever is exchanged, the video will capture the slighted detail of the ceremony in exquisite details.

•  Feel the feels: You are probably going to be moving through a wave of emotions on your wedding day, and what better way to capture that than to have it in a wedding video for years to come? Feel the jitters, the excitement, the love in your heart, and the thrill of the future ahead forever. You can add in your special touch to make your wedding video more representative of you. Many videographers have collections that you can choose from and personalize your wedding film accordingly

 

A wedding video is a ride back to the day it all happened, and it will forever be yours to revisit when you are feeling low, or reminiscent. There are so many talented wedding videographers out there who will weave your day in a perfect movie, give words so your feelings are articulated perfectly, and bring your day alive in vivid colors and elevated shots, as you and your partner star in your unique love story!

5 Tips to Ensure Your Wedding Vendors Work Together Fabulously

Weddings are elaborate affairs. They require a lot of planning and preparation. And mostly witness the involvement of third-parties and vendors. Hiring vendors for your wedding preparations is not an easy task. From florists, cinematographers, and decorators to caterers and DJ, the list of vendors is highly important. They are your support system throughout the wedding.

Starting with the research, you have to thoroughly familiarize yourself with their previous works so that you can pick the right one. Once you make your decision for one vendor, it feels like a battle waiting to be won. It becomes relatively easier to decide about the others.

When you finally sign up with all your vendors, things become relatively easier for you. As you share your wedding dreams and delegate, you are tempted to sit back and relax. However, to be sure of all the work completed as per your requirement, you have to keep a watch on the vendors.

To get your vendors to do their work properly and as per your requirements, you have to have a healthy relationship with them as well. It’s all about positivity. There are various ways in which you can have a successful relationship with your vendors. We have compiled a list of some of the most effective ways to ensure you and all your vendors can work in good harmony. Read on to know more.

Be prepared and prepare them, too

Do all your research diligently before you meet up with your vendors. It is always good to be prepared as it implies that you are all into it and are well-informed. Have pictures, links, and other such things ready so that they know what you have in your mind. Also, if their work needs to be coordinated, be prepared, and informed beforehand so that they know what you are expecting from their collaboration.

Communication is the key

One of the most important requirements to have a dream wedding is communicating what you want to the people that are involved in making it come true. Begin with sharing all your wedding details with the vendors. Then move on to ensuring that they communicate well with you too. Be accessible and a good listener so that they are confident about telling you stuff that you should know, especially if vendors have a misunderstanding among each other. Healthy communication between you and the vendors goes a long way to create a friendly professional relationship aimed at the reality of your dreams.

Be honest and encourage honesty

Honesty, if kept everywhere, does wonder. And why should any wedding be a stranger to this fact? After all, the foundation of your marriage is also honesty. Be as honest with your vendors as you can. If you do not like something, tell them. It’s your wedding and you are paying them for their services. They are obligated to provide you with exceptional services. So, if you do not like something, be honest and tell them about what you have in mind. At the same time, encourage them to be honest with you, more so when it’s about other vendors that they need to coordinate with.

Be a gracious bride

As stressful as it might get, remain calm and happy as it’s your wedding! On a big occasion like a wedding, misunderstandings, miscommunications, and other misses are bound to happen. Do not be a bridezilla and let it go, shining through it all. Since there is more than one vendor involved in your wedding, chances are you might take out your frustration regarding one vendor on the other one. And well, you might just scare them away or make things worse for your wedding. It’s crucial to be welcoming, positive, and cordial with all the vendors so that they work in camaraderie.

Put your trust in their work

Trust is the essence of any relationship, professional or personal. Your bond of trust with your vendors goes a long way in making your big day a big hit. Trust them to give their best and work with them as much as you can. If you have selected great professionals after scrutinizing their past projects, trust their capabilities. If you do it with one vendor, chances are the word will spread across others as well. Trusting and letting it go also creates a healthy work relationship which will be evident in your wedding preparations.

It’s highly important to have a great cordial relationship with your vendors for them to give their best. And the more positivity you give, the more it is likely to reflect in their relationships and further interactions with the other vendors. Their camaraderie is the need of the hour. After all, your vendors play a vital role in bringing your wedding dreams to life.

5 Fabulous Reasons to Have a First Look at your Wedding

In years past people have been believing that seeing your wife before the wedding ceremony brings bad luck for the groom. However, the progressive world has evolved since then and most couples have stopped being superstitious about these things. More and more couples are opting to have a first look at their weddings.

A first look is relatively a modern custom where the bride and groom see each other for the first time in the wedding attire, earlier than at the aisle. It’s the moment of revealing the couples’ wedding look to each other before the wedding ceremony. It is a great concept and is becoming popular by the day. If you are planning to tie the knot, it’s worth a consideration. Let us take you through some of the reasons why you should consider having the first look at your wedding.

First look brings the best look

Since it’s done at the beginning of the day, you are your freshest best! Your look and attire are flawless at that time, hence, it’s the perfect moment to capture your perfect looks. As the day progresses, which will be real quick we might add, your look is not going to stay as immaculate as it did early in the day. Therefore, this time is best to have some great wedding photography.

Great to calm the wedding jitters

Pre-wedding jitters are understood and no one has escaped from them. However, the first look can help ease those butterflies. During the first look, you and your partner get some quality time to be alone and calm each other’s anxiety down. Plus, you get out of that ‘will he like my look?’ or the ‘how do I look?’ thoughts as you walk the aisle! The first look gives you ample time to discuss how great you both look and we all would agree to that – once your partner compliments you, the world becomes a better place already.

For that precious alone time before the big exchange

Your first look is ironically the first time being single and alone with your partner and also your last, and by that we mean, you won’t be single anymore when you walk down that aisle. So if you decide to go for your first look, you would be spending some quality time with your partner before you both get sucked into the celebrations. Then it’s all about being surrounded by friends and relatives.

Gorgeous photo ops

With first look come fresh appearances and solitude of you both. This means – great opportunities for clicking your wedding portraits. In fact, if you have decided to hire a wedding videographer, even photos won’t be able to do justice to your first look. That first expression of your partner when he sees you all dolled up for your big day is too precious to be captured only in photos. And such wedding photo ops are more vital during the winters when you have a lesser number of hours of natural light needed for a perfect wedding photoshoot.

Save time for your guests

Getting your first look means you can have your wedding photoshoot before the ceremony begins. Which in turn saves a lot of time which is usually taken up by wedding portraits. That, in turn, gives you ample time to spend with your guests and enjoy your happiest day with them. Since you are done with most of the photoshoot for the both of you during your first look, you can utilize and devote time after the ceremony to your family and friends. Well, after all, their purpose is the same as yours – to celebrate your love!

Times have changed and superstitious beliefs have given way to progressiveness. That being said, it is still a personal choice as a couple has other reservations when it comes to having the first look at their wedding. This happens due to various reasons like a couple might not be comfortable displaying their emotions or might want to save time for the wedding celebrations only. However, most of the time, the pros outweigh the cons.

Why You Should Consider Filming Your Rehearsal Dinner

By now, it’s pretty standard to hire a talented videographer to capture your wedding and incorporate it into a gorgeous film. But, have you ever considered having a videographer there to film your rehearsal dinner too? This is an add-on option that is quickly growing in popularity here at byDesign! Here are a few reasons you might want to consider adding a rehearsal dinner film to your package:

Candid Moments

Because the rehearsal dinner is less structured and hectic than your wedding day, it’s a great opportunity to capture candid moments between loved ones. All of the important people in your lives will be there, including your wedding party and closest family. It’s the perfect chance for everyone to get to one another ahead of the big day, and you will really value getting to look back at some of those moments.

Important Speeches

Oftentimes, the rehearsal dinner is when some of the best speeches come out. It’s a more casual event, and your guests probably will feel more comfortable opening up in front of a smaller group of people. Think funny memories, loving sentiments, and all sorts of future well-wishes. Having the ability to watch these back at a later time will be absolutely invaluable.

Pre-Wedding Bliss

The Rehearsal Dinner is “the calm before the storm.” There are few opportunities to document this incredible moment, when everything is suspended in pre-marital bliss. Everything has already been planned, you’re surrounded by loved ones, and everyone is giddy with excitement for the upcoming nuptials.
