MAKE IT YOUR OWN MONDAY --- A BOLD STATEMENT

MAKE A BOLD STATEMENT 

PICTURE SOURCE couturebridaldesigns.blogspot.com

So many times it seems that brides skip the formal wedding because of a fear of being their selves. 

I have noticed that in the bridal word there is a deep want to make every wedding unique. To step away from the cookie cutter version of weddings. I fear that brides are afraid to express their personalities because of the fear of being to bold. 

Do it 

Be a trend setter. 

Maybe it is with your dress or with your decorations. Show people your individuality. If there is one time in history when i think that you could get away with any thing remember now is that time.

Wedding Expert Friday - - - Don't Let Social Media RUIN YOUR WEDDING!!!!!!!

Don't Let Social Media Ruin Your Wedding

Image source Fasticon..com

 I get the opportunity to work with absolutely the best vendors in my area. Unfortunately I can not tell you who this expert is because i have not been able to get her permission this week. However this photographer gave me some advice that needs to be put out there ASAP!!!

It is a fact that thanks to technology we are able to share our thoughts and ideas almost as fast as we can come up with them. One of the advantages of this instant sharing is that we can also share pictures instantly. 

This instant sharing has come to ruin one of weddings most important traditions , The First Look!!!

If you are like many couples today you practice many traditions that have been around for ages. 

And many couples and their families go through great lengths to keep the bride and groom from seeing each other on their wedding day. This tradition goes back to the times of arranged marriages (but that is another blog).

Chances are that you and your soon to be husband / bride have many of the same friends on the social media. Some of these friends may be part of your wedding party. 

An exited bridesmaid or a joking grooms man can ruin the first look for you. Not on purpose but as a result of not knowing the importance of the moment. A picture posted online can allow your groom or bride to see you before the wedding. 

There is a very simple fix for this...... Just ask your wedding party and family to refrain from posting pictures until after the ceremony. 

Simple as that!!!  

Social media can make weddings fun but there is a time and a place for everything.

WEDDING TRADITIONS EXPLAINED - WHY DOES A GROOM CARRY A BRIDE OVER THE THRESHOLD

WEDDING TRADITIONS EXPLAINED 

WEDNESDAY 

WHY DOES A GROOM CARRY A BRIDE 

OVER THE THRESHOLD? 

Image source holykaw.alltop.com 

So many of the traditions today have almost unbelievable backgrounds. 

Although in todays society we consider carring your bride over the threshold a picture opp, It actually has a very interesting origin. 

(The following was taken word for word from http://people.howstuffworks.com/groom-carry-bride1.htm

it was so good i just couldn't find a reason to change it.) 

Superstitious Western Europeans believed that a bride who tripped over the threshold of her new home would irrevocably bring bad luck to her home and marriage. Since the husband appears to have been immune from such happenstance, the groom carrying the bride into the home proved a good way to avoid such a mishap altogether [source: World Wedding Traditions]. This fear of tripping appears to have its roots in ancient Roman culture, which held a similar belief [source: Nickerson].

Pan-culturally, brides seem to be considered lightning rods for misfortune. In addition to being susceptible to bad luck, brides' bodies also supposedly provide great havens for unattached spirits. Spirit intrusion is the notion that the spirits of the dead or living can live on unattached to their physical bodies and are thus able to enter the bodies of others [source: Ember and Ember]. Once inside, a spirit can wreak havoc on the possessed, generating physical and mental illness.

Belief in spirit intrusion continues in some cultures today, although it was much more widespread in the ancient world. In many of these early cultures, the threshold of the home was thought to be rife with unattached spirits. A bride was considered particularly vulnerable to spirit intrusion, especially through the soles of her feet. By carrying her into their home, the groom was covering all his bases by ensuring his new wife didn't bring along any unwanted spiritual guests into the house [source: The Knot].

Make it your own Monday - Ceremony seating. Make it memorable!!!!

Ceremony Seating 

Why not change it up a bit?

picture source indulgy.com

This make it your own tip is all about sharing an experience with your parents. 

Life has its moments, moments that make life special. Your parents have spent your whole life knowing that one day this day would come. Make it extra special for them. 

Most of the ceremonies in the last couple of years have implemented the "pick a seat not a side" seating technique. We still place parents on the left for the bride, and right for the groom. 

Make it your own. Why not seat the bride's family on the right and grooms on the left. Why would you do that? It simple when you are at the altar and you are saying your vows your family is looking at the back of your head. Now I am not saying that your groom is not important to your family. What I'm saying is, how much more special would it be if your family could see your face as you were vowing your love. It's a twist on tradition that can make the day that much more special for the parents of both sides. 

Remember to make it your own. Just because it has been done one way doesn't mean it is the only way to do it. 

Remember to share this with a bride.

IT'S YOUR WEDDING DAY - - - TIME TO BE A MAN!!! (FOR THE GUYS)

TIME TO BE A MAN

PICTURE SOURCE http://ardenrr.files.wordpress.com/

OK  So it is time for some one to talk to the Grooms. There are a trillion forums, blogs, and tips for the bride. I think it is time that we talk to the grooms about a small problem at weddings. 

Some times the problem is the groom!!!

OK  . . . Let me explain myself. I am a wedding entertainer (DJ). I get the opportunity to be a part of so many couples lives every year. I do my best to help them with planning their perfect party. I also get the chance to provide audio for the ceremony of many of these couples. I can not tell you how many times ,I have sat across the table from a couple and explained that the lapel mic will be concealed by the tux. Only to hear the groom grunt,  and the bride say "he wont be wearing a tux". 

So here we go. Guys I think that we have a false understanding of what the wedding day really is. To most of us it is just a day when we will be paraded in front of our friends, love ones and people you have never met. Where you will have to dance,  eat food, and take pictures. Right? Wrong!!! 

Now lets go back to when you were a kid. I am willing to bet that you never played groom as a child, unless you had an older sister. A vast majority of women have been dreaming about this day for longer than most will admit. 

You have now dated for a while, and you decide that this woman is the one that you have to share your life with. You do the most cheesy thing you can imagine and get down on a knee. You ask a 4 word question, and she accepts your proposition. This is where it gets tricky, the planning for a celebration begins. Decisions start to be made, and for the most part, it doesn't matter to you whether it is a pure white or off white invitation. Then you start killing the dream! "I will not wear a penguin suit" "I will not take Dance lessons" "I will not take engagement  pictures" and so on. 

Let me explain something to you. If they could have the wedding without the groom, some would, and some have tried. Your bride, not wanting to scare you right out of the gate, will compromise with you. You will then feel as if you have some control of the disaster that this has turned into. All you wanted was a party!! 

Guys, It's time to be a Man. This woman is about to dedicate her life to you. She will stand behind every stupid business idea you have. She will give you kids. She is going to be the rock by your side. Now, don't you think that deserves one day?? You are going to be in front of your friends and family proclaiming your love for her, why not do it in a tux. You see, to a bride one of the most important things is to see the grooms reaction when she steps out. Why not look just as good for her? At the reception they are going to make you dance, just the two of you, for about 4 minutes. Forget the world, focus on the woman in front of you. Use the dance moves you learned from that weird guy you have told all your friends about. 

Men, when people tell you to choose your battles, let me suggest that you go with the flow and, help your wife, fulfill her dream. So many times I see Boys who hold a wedding hostage with the whole My Way or the Highway attitude. Chances are that you WILL have a say in the wedding. You will become a music expert by the time of your reception, not to mention the many wineries that you must visit to make sure the guest have good spirits. As a man it is your responsibility to help, not hinder your bride. You have told her that you are going to do your best to make her happy. . . show her.  Plus this is practice for the day it is your responsibility to give your little girl her dream wedding. 

It is time to be a Man, Show her what she really means to you. 

It is a tip that will help you now and down the road.

The question we asked Ester was, Do brides really need a wedding planner? 

You might want to ask yourself is a wedding planner an accessory or a necessity? Wedding Planners have become  indispensable today to many brides and grooms, who find their service well worth the expense. A wedding planner guides you through the planning process and the wedding day itself , assisting in whatever capacity you need. He or she can help you refine your ideas, connect you to the appropriate vendors and suggest ways to use your budget wisely.  A good wedding planner will help you every step of the way making sure nothing is forgotten. Just like you shop for a wedding dress or the best caterer so should you shop for a wedding planner that has your vision and a passion for detail.

Thursday - Tips for the Smart Bride - - Why You Should Take a Minute to Yourself on Your Wedding Day!!

Tips for the Smart Bride 

WHY YOU SHOULD TAKE A MINUTE TO YOURSELF ON YOUR WEDDING DAY.

 So the wedding day is here.  You hit the ground running to plan your big day the minute after he asks you to marry him. Lets face it, you probably had the day picked out the second after he got that ring on your finger. In what seemed like no time you had a wedding venue, caterer, DJ, Photographer, and if you wanted to take some of the edge off, you hired a wedding planner.

      From the second that you wake up you will be in WEDDING MODE. You will wake up and meet with your bridesmaids for breakfast. The photographer will arrive, the videographer will be tailing you the whole day. Mom and Dad arrive, hair is done, Make up is perfect, time to dress you. Through out the day your friends and family will be checking on you. You are the center of attention, and you will be asked every question under the sun. And you will probably have forgotten something that your dad must go retrieve. Hurry it is now time for the wedding, here comes the bride. Pictures, now reception, Sit down to eat, time for the first dance, time to cut the cake, talk to family and friends who are fighting for a chance to congratulate you. Now bouquet toss, thank your parents, send off. 

Whew. . . what just happened. Months of planning and you aren't even sure you ate. 

Here is a step that will put it all into perspective. Make time for yourself!!!! In between you being ready, and walking down the isle, take 5. Kick everyone out of the room. If you pray, pray. If you want to listen to a song, do it. Take this time to reflect on what is about to take place. This small window of time will actually slow everything down for you. It will hit the brakes on the auto pilot, and bring focus back into your day. 

How many brides have you heard say " It all went by so fast" ? This small tip will keep you from missing a beat.

Make sure you share our blog with a bride!!!!

WEDDING TRADITIONS EXPLAINED - - - WHY DOES BRIDE CARY A BOUQUET?

WEDDING TRADITION 

WEDNESDAY 

WHY DOES THE BRIDE CARRY A BOUQUET

PICTURE SOURCE www.flowergirlsoftulsa.com

Wedding tradition Wednesday has to be probably one of my favorite days. Make sure that you share this blog with a bride. 

It is a fact that at most weddings that we attend even the  smallest of details may have deep rooted traditions . The modern day wedding is filled with traditions that have been gathered through out ages, and heritage.

Do you know that the bouquet is just a twist on a type of scary superstition / and a common practice ? 

Ancient Greek, Roman and Celtic brides carried bouquets and wore garlands of fragrant herbs and spices including dill, rosemary, myrtle and garlic. Young couples thought the mixture of plants had mystical capabilities and could ward of evil spirits on their wedding day. While Queen Victoria made history by replacing many of the herbs with fresh flowers, she still retained a few bunches of herbs in her bridal bouquet in 1840.

During the 15th century the most popular wedding month was June.  According to the Huffington Post, during the 15th century, people took their yearly baths in May and would generally get married in June. Just to be safe, brides carried bouquets to mask the smell of body odor.

Early Victorian-era brides carried bouquets of flowers as a symbol of the couple's love, devotion and future. Brides and grooms chose the blooms based on meaning, not the wedding color scheme. Orange blossoms --- the most popular flower included in early bridal bouquets --- symbolized fertility, chastity and purity, according to Chinese culture. Roses, pansies, hyacinths, stephanotis and tulips represented romance and also commonly graced the bridal bouquet. Daisies often made an appearance in the bouquets for their symbolism of innocence. Couples who desired wealth included chrysanthemums.

    In this day and age brides most commonly pick the flowers that fit their color scheme and budget. The wedding bouquet has a history of protection. Whether it was from evil spirits, or bad odor, it seems that the selection of flowers that the bride carries has always had a special meaning.

Make it your own Monday - - - A Twist on tradition (TRY THIS!! )

WHO WALKS YOU DOWN THE ISLE

PHOTO SOURCE - GREENWEDDINGSHOES.COM 

Weddings are a time of family and friends. Where the bride is given to her groom by her parents, to start and make a new life together. One of the most traditional elements of the wedding is the wedding ceremony. So much so that guest, for the most part, know how and when to react. For example the guest know that you are suppose to stand when the bride walk in.  

One of the traditions that has been around for a long time is the one where the father of the bride escorts her down the isle to be presented to the groom as his bride. A beautiful and emotional time for everyone, even mom. 

The woman who has been by your side through out the planning, through out the struggles of life as you were growing up. I am not sure why this has not been changed yet, maybe for the sake of tradition? I am not saying that any one at the wedding party thinks that the mom is less important. Most weddings have a father daughter dance also. So there is plenty of time to honor dad. 

Here is my proposal. . . .  What if you were to be escorted by both of your parents? Would it be traditional . .  maybe not. I believe that there was a time when this would be completely taboo. In this day and age I believe that you could totally get away with including mom.  Not to mention I believe that it would make mom feel appreciated.  I also feel that it would make it just that much more memorable. When the preacher ask, "who presents this woman?  a simple "we do" or "her mother and I " would be amazing. 

Remember that it is your wedding, and you should always make it your own. Don't think that the way that it has always been done is the only way. Weddings are all about sharing special moments with family and friends. Think about how special this would be for at least one woman at the ceremony!!

From the Experts / Wedding DJ / Importance of a Timeline

Wedding Expert 

Friday 

Angel Pacanins 

Wedding DJ - M and A Entertainment 

Web Site : WWW.MandAEntertainment.COM

Phone # 325 627 6677

Well I believe I will start out  with myself on expert Friday  As a wedding professional I get the pleasure to work with so many wonderful brides and grooms. I also get a chance to meet the people who are of importance to them. 

The tip that I would like to share today actually has to do with the timeline of the wedding. When I first started doing weddings I didn't quite understand what the purpose of a timeline at a wedding was....... It wasn't like we were going to stick to it anyway. The bride and groom will let me know when they are ready to do their dances, or cut the cake, or bouquet toss and so on. If you are the really easy going bride that just wants it to go nice. Not wanting to tell people what to do. Then this is for you.

Not every wedding reception is the same, however they all seem to follow the same structure: 

Guest Arrive - Listen to music, enjoy cocktails and either snack on Hors D'oeuvres or dinner line begins 

Wedding Party arrives - Introduction of the bride and groom into their reception, 

First Dance -  there is a reason that this fits in right at this point but that is another blog. 

Dinner- In the event that you decided to allow the bride and groom to be the first ones served. then you allow the guest to be served at this time 

Cake - cut the cake 

Toast - Remember that it is formal for the best man to go first 

Father Daughter Dance -  tearjerker time 

Mother Son Dance - keep the tears flowing 

Open the Dance Floor - 

Bouquet Toss - all the single ladies 

Garter Toss - all the single guys who you drag out. 

Toast by the bride and groom- thanking their guest 

Send Off - That's all she wrote

Disclaimer------ It is your big day, Do it your way. this is just the normal flow of things, But if you want to start off with the garter toss. DO IT!!!

    Why is it important to write down a timeline and make sure that all of your vendors understand it? Its simple, to make it easier on your self. You don't want the DJ, Photographer, videographer, caterer, to come ask you if you are ready for the next thing while you are trying to talk to one of your guest. This is the classic example between professional and hobby wedding vendors. 

  I actually attended a wedding, as a guest where the bride finally literally threw her arms in the air and told the DJ to stop bothering her. This was a bride without a timeline, and well, lets call him a starter DJ (witch only got worse through out the night).  The bride and groom at this particular wedding left their reception with out ever dancing their first dance!!!! Here is what happens in this situation. The bride and groom arrive and after their introductions they are immediately surrounded by their family and friends wanting to personally congratulate them. They never make it past the front door, metaphorically speaking. 

  The time line is not something that is set in stone. It is a guideline to whomever is the Master of Ceremonies (MC) that lets them know, what time guest arrive and what time you are leaving. Here is a list of all the things that we would like to get through in between those two times, and here is the order we would like to do it in. You are not being rude or a bridezilla, you will find that this one step of sitting down and writing it out, will actually make every ones day go a lot smoother. Make sure that your wedding planner, wedding photographer, videographer, DJ or band, venue manager, caterer, all have copies of this timeline. All of these people are your wedding team and they are the ones who are going to make it memorable (good or bad). This is a tool for wedding success.

I hope that with a bit of knowledge you will have the wedding reception that people praise for years to come. 

Remember Fridays are expert day!!!! Share this with a bride or bride to be. they will thank you.

TIPS FOR THE SMART BRIDE - - - - HOW TO CREATE A BUDGET

CREATING A BUDGET 

Your groom just asked you to make him the happiest man in the world. You thought long and hard about it . . .. and said "YES".

  Now what??  Who do you call first?? How much does it cost to get married?? How much is dad willing to pay towards his little girls big day? Is it a beer or champagne budget?

It is a fact that most people have no idea what an average wedding in their area costs.  According to Realsimple.com the average low end cost of a wedding in Texas is somewhere around the $28,000 range. I believe that in our (Abilene) area it is closer to $20,328 according to The Wedding Report. 

So how do you go about creating a budget? Before I start with my suggestions, I must say that I am just a DJ. Not a financial planner, but I do see many brides who spend too much or bust their budget just because they do not prioritize.

Prioritize?? What does that have to do with the budget? EVERYTHING!!!! You have talked to dad, and with some help from your mom, you now know how much your parents are willing to pay. You must now ask. . . . how much are you willing to pay? It is a fact that a larger portion of brides and grooms are taking on part, if not all of the financial burden of weddings.   Before you talk to one vendor,  or go to one bridal show all brides should do this .  . . . Sit down with your groom, and write down the parts that make up a wedding 

Ceremony 

Reception 

now split that into what you think you will need for each. Keep in mind you may add or take off certain things later on according to your budget. 

Ceremony:

Venue

  Attire 

Flowers 

Music 

Officiant 

Reception :

Venue

  Entertainment 

Food 

Cakes 

Flowers 

Tables 

Chairs 

Decorations 

and so on. 

Now you have in front of you a list of what you think you will need for the wedding. Now next to each item on a scale of 1-10 rate each of the items in relevance to how important this particular item is to complete your vision of your perfect day. 

So lets say you are a DJ and so for me under Entertainment I would rate is as a 10. Flowers on the other hand would probably rate about a 5 for me. Remember I'm a guy and a DJ. 

Now you know exactly what parts of the wedding are very important to you as a couple, and what is just a formality. You should put the most money towards those items that are really important to you. Lets say you , like me, think "I want my guest to leave saying it was the most fun wedding I have ever attended". You should probably do some research and find out who the best wedding DJ  or Band in the area is and put more money there. Lets say you want the Venue to be the most jaw dropping place you can afford. You should probably spend more of your budget on the venue. 

The reality is that no two couples are the same, and while one couple wants a great time. Another couple may be more interested in making sure that the moments are all documented . Yet another couple may want to share the most incredible meal with their friends and families. So make sure that your budget reflects the items that matter most to you. 

So many times I have ran into brides who say "I wish I would have not had to have chair covers and hired you instead" or some derivative of that. This to me is a bride that didn't know her priorities until she had already put down her deposits. 

I truly hope that this helps at least one bride. 

Don't forget to share this with a bride . . .  You will be helping them out.

WEDDING TRADITION EXPLAINED - - - - BRIDE ON THE LEFT

WEDDING TRADITION EXPLINATION

Why does the bride stand on the left of the groom at the altar???

PICTURE SOURCE aarography.com

    Long ago, the right arm was considered the sword arm of most fighting men. If a man had to protect his bride, he would hold her with his left hand, and fight off attackers with his right arm.

The reason that men may have had to fight off others was because quite often women were kidnapped. Family members naturally wanted to rescue the stolen brides. Sometimes even during the wedding ceremony, the grooms had to fight off other men who were desirous of their brides, along with the bride's family members. So having his right arm free was an important strategy.

This tradition is followed today by when facing the officiant, having the bride stand to the left, and the groom stand to the right. (source -wikianswers.com)

Welcome to Bride Education (MY STORY AND MISSION STATEMENT)

 

Welcome to Bride Education

 

My name is Angel Pacanins. My beautiful bride and I were married on October of 2010. I have been blessed with her company since the winter of 2005. We dated and, like most couples today, lived together for 4 years before I finally decided to ask her to be a part of my life at the stroke of midnight at the stroke of midnight December 31 2009.  With both of our families present. As a guy I had no idea of the whirl wind that the next 10 months of my life were about to become.  It seemed like for the first 3 months I was bombarded by questions. Naturally my wife insisted that I be a key part of the wedding planning. Being a DJ, the only part of the wedding that interested me was the PARTY. So we visited every venue in the Abilene area, tasted cakes till I became diabetic, chose colors and flowers, tasted food, and drank cocktails, hired a DJ ( she wouldn't let me work my own wedding), interviewed Photographers and video graphers. After meeting with just about every wedding "Professional", in what seemed like the whole world. We made decisions and put down deposits. For the next 4 months the storm had passed, and then. . . . .  the engagement party happened. This was the kick start to what may have possibly been the most hectic times of my life. I am not kidding there was a time that i thought that there was no way we were ever going to make it to this wedding. Like always love prevails and we did it we made it to the wedding day. The most perfect day surrounded by all of our friends and love ones. Followed by an amazing reception and then ....... it was over. Just like that.

 

     I started my entertainment company M and A Entertainment a month after we were married and strive to be the best Wedding DJ in my area. It was brought to my attention at a recent wedding that we are all put through the wedding machine and come out with no more information then when we went in. This blog is dedicated to Educating our brides about the many traditions and informing them on the many alternatives to the cookie cutter weddings that we all seem to attend so often.I want to use this as a vehicle to making sure that brides understand why things are done a certain way and give you resources to make sure that your whole wedding experience is a positive one. Whether you are on a beer and nuts or a caviar budget, every bride deserves to feel that the day just could not have gone any better. I want to share ideas that are out there just not everyone has a chance to search for them.  So I will have days where I share the meaning of traditions explained, Things you should know before talking to vendors, The almighty budget, and many other things that I think are relevant along the way. I have an ever growing support group of true professionals in the Abilene area that I will be relying on for many of my blogs. I thank you for sighing up for my blog and ask that you check it often. DON'T FORGET TO SHARE THIS BLOG WITH YOUR FAVORITE BRIDE TO BE, THERE WILL BE PRICELESS INFORMATION ON IT.
