The Berber people may (not always but it is common and considered the norm) organize a wedding for several couples on the same day and consummate the marriage on the same night. Of course, every couple sleeps only with each other, no group consummation is possible. But their first wedding night is a common experience and they spend it in the same space. For 5 days, the couples stay together, make love, and support each other in their first steps as a married couple. This tradition strengthens the small society and makes its members closer to each other.

It’s typical to hire 2 shooters to work a wedding. They can capture more important moments and, if something happens to the photo equipment, there always is a second photographer with his camera. Two shooters can ensure you’ll have your wedding pics no matter what. But those couples whose wedding budget is small can hire only one photographer. Again, some of the significant moments of your wedding will probably be lost, because one person can’t be everywhere, but the photos you’ll get will be professional and of high quality, instead of amateur snaps made by your friends and family.

If some of the beauty products you plan to use on your wedding day are new to you, your skin is going to need time to adjust. So, start applying them on a regular basis about 6 months before the big day. This way, you’ll be able to change the product if it doesn’t work for your skin.
At the same time, add regular facials.

If you’re planning to have an outdoor wedding, specify this info in your wedding invitations, on your wedding website, and through any other means. It’s very important. Your guests should know what to prepare for, what clothing and shoes to wear, etc. Partying outside, even in a very beautiful and prepared location, is different from having a fancy marriage ceremony in a wedding hall or your usual venue.

Traditionally, most couples want their bridesmaids and groomsmen to wear matching clothing. But it’s not always so great. Just remember all those movies where bridesmaids hated their dresses because they didn’t suit their body (not always you can choose a style and silhouette that is good for everybody). Or the members of your bridal party can have a problem with paying for their expensive outfits. So, there is a compromise – you can establish the color or general style but let your bridesmaids and groomsmen buy whatever they can afford and want to wear. Also, a lot of weddings these days show mismatched costumes of the wedding party, and it can look fine. If you’re still not sure, search Pinterest for such wedding photos.

Some couples choose neutral colors for their wedding bouquet and boutonniere – cream, beige, tan, nude, etc. But remember that such wedding accessories look much better with a suit in dark color. Otherwise, your boutonniere will simply become invisible. Make sure your wedding clothing and boutonniere or buttonhole look good together. Another option is to add a touch of color to a neutral buttonhole, for example, a bright ribbon with a cream-colored flower.

Find out if your particular rental company delivers, sets up, and picks up the furniture after the event is over. It may probably cost you extra for these services, but otherwise, you’ll need to find someone else to do it, and believe us, you don’t want to make your wedding guests or bridal party drag tables.

The backyard wedding infrastructure is a serious issue. A backyard wedding needs a lot of power, especially when you plan to party until it’s dark. The lighting has to be enough, the kitchen and dance floor (DJ or live music or even music systems) need a lot of power, the kitchen also needs running water, as do the restrooms. Be ready to provide all the infrastructure for your vendors, and don’t forget to discuss this matter with them beforehand.
There are places that don’t have electricity at all or not enough to provide for all of the users. In this case, you can bring a generator, but notice that it makes a very loud noise, so you’ll need to put it far enough from the party itself.

The more unique and personalized your boutonniere or buttonhole is, the better. Today, various unexpected plants, herbs, dried florals, etc are trendy.

There is a unique wedding ritual in Peru, a symbolic sacrifice to Mother Earth called “despacho”. They take a traditional woven piece of fabric, spread it on the ground, and put different symbolic items onto it (food, flowers, and other items made from natural materials). Then, each wedding guest comes to this cloth, adds some coca leaves to the arrangement, and says his/her wishes to the couple. After that, the despacho is wrapped, blessed, and given to the bride and groom, who can either burn it or bury – it’s a sacrifice for Mother Earth.

The assortment of wedding chairs is huge, so you have plenty of options. Chose those that match your other wedding furniture, theme of your wedding, décor, type of a venue, etc. But avoid cheap plastic chairs that squeak when a person is moving. This squeaking can be really annoying and ruin all the atmosphere. Take wooden chairs instead – they’re more expensive but it’s worth it.
