The Most Beautiful Wedding in the Word: Yours!
There’s a secret to making everybody happy and having a wonderful wedding: listen to no one but yourself and design an event that fits your personality and lifestyle. Yes, you’re allowed a short non-white wedding dress, a beach or mountain lodge wedding, rock music all over the place, no blue, old, or new, no priest or church, sandwiches in the menu, and unconventional wedding rings. Follow your heart and instinct and don’t worry; everything will be perfect!
Weddings are accompanied by traditions and rituals, spiritual moments, and big parties. They can last several days and need months of preparations. We see fairytale weddings in movies, read about celebrity weddings in magazines, and participate in our family and friends’ weddings. No wonder that the expectations are very high! Besides, everyone has an opinion on how you should plan your wedding. And the opinions are hardly similar.

Book a professional photographer to document the moment
A wedding starts long before the vows. It starts with a long list of preparations such as dressing, hair and make-up sessions, and, of course, welcoming relatives and friends. A professional photographer accompanies you along the big day and documents each moment. In your photo album, you’ll discover touching perspectives, loved ones portraits, and unique moments. The wedding is a sum of little details and your photographer will capture them for you.
Plan the wedding photo session on the beach
If you choose an exotic destination such as Mexico, consider a private photo session on the beach. Enjoy stunning ocean scenery and an intimate moment just for the two of you. You can walk barefoot on the beach and let the photographer capture your love and emotions. Or you can plan the entire wedding on the beach and create the décor you’ve dreamt of.
Invite only close friends and relatives
You’re allowed a small outdoor wedding so make a list with your closest friends and family. Instead of having people you don’t know at your wedding, choose to be surrounded by love and care. A wedding with 50 people that know each other and are ready to party till dawn is a great way to celebrate your commitment. Don’t impose dress codes, gifts, and other fancy and expensive customs. It’s a day of happiness and celebration; no one should worry about anything.
There are no limits to planning your perfect wedding. From scuba diving to a traditional church event, you can choose anything you like. But it’s important to choose something that represents you and let you be yourself. Otherwise, it’s just a fake.
