This proposal trend 2023 is getting more and more common. People started to involve florists, pro photographers and videographers, stylists, and other wedding vendors in their proposal prep. While a few years back, only grooms who wanted a really fancy proposal hired vendors to help them organize everything, today, lots of ordinary people do it. It’s become so popular that many vendors mention these services on their websites and offer rather affordable prices. If you want to really impress your partner, make your proposal smart, well-prepared, and professional, using wedding vendors.

If your wedding budget is limited, be inventive and think wider about making deals with wedding vendors. If you provide some service in your line of work (maybe you’re a constructor or a baker or a shop owner), you can try to barter with a potential vendor – a favor for a favor, a service for a service. Sometimes, it’s advantageous for both of you. Especially when you’re working with a small wedding vendor company or a private vendor.

Wedding rentals tip – make arrangements for your full guest count. Order the number of tables and chairs for maximum people, even though you know that some of them won’t come. You’ll be able to reduce the number later, but there is no guarantee that you’ll be able to order more chairs if the need arises. So, always talk with the rental company about the maximum count.

Elaborately decorated and motley wedding invitations are so not trendy in 2023. This wedding season, go for simpler designs of wedding invitation suite – clean strict lines, simple fonts, minimum of text, and classic style of stationery. Often, black letters on white paper, nothing else, no colors and decorations.

This is a very handy and charming trend – instead of changing a dress sometime during the wedding day, you can just take the sleeves off and your attire will look different. Besides, the sleeves of wedding gowns that will be trendy in 2023 are pretty large, puffy, and eye-catching. They are a good accent in your wedding look. Among the most favored types of wedding dress sleeves, there will be sheer puffed sleeves, bishop sleeves, leg-o-mutton sleeves, and similar spectacular designs.

Do you remember the time when public proposals were so popular you saw someone popping the question practically every week or even more often if you lived in a big city? It’s over. The latest trend is to propose to your honey in private, where there are no strangers sharing the experience with you two. People choose various remote and privy locations, like a beach, a backyard, or a botanical garden. Often, they are ready to pay for a private space.

To make your expenses on wedding dessert more affordable, be inventive. If your budget doesn’t allow you to order a professionally-made wedding cake, go for individual mini desserts or buy sweets in a local bakery and arrange a DIY wedding dessert table. Or you can cut the costs by delivering your cake from the baker and setting it up by yourself (not yourself actually but someone from your bridal party). This will help you save some money.

If you decide to have wedding signs at your wedding location, think about using DIY wedding signs. They are easy to make and can be prepared months in advance, so you won’t have to stress about it when the wedding date approaches.

May is not a popular month for weddings in Czechia. Why? This tradition is rather old. If a couple got married in May, they would have had the first baby born in February. And in the past, February was a rather hungry month, the end of the long winter when supplies were getting thin. People would have had difficulties with feeding the young mother enough for her child to be strong and healthy. That’s why Czechs started to avoid getting married in May. Even today when life is a lot easier and the ration is equally rich all year round, not so many couples choose this month for their wedding.

Wedding florists and flower companies in America talk about a shortage of flowers delivered to the US from abroad where the plants are grown. A number of reasons – from strikes to weather conditions to lack of shipping containers, etc – caused this shortage. So, if there’s no particular flower type that you have to have at your wedding, consider opting for less popular florals. You’ll have better chances to get them than those flowers everybody wants.

Historically, the official Crimean Tatar first date happened only after the official engagement. The groom came to his bride’s house to see her and present her with a small gift to show his devotion. But he wasn’t allowed to enter her house at first. He talked to the girl through her window and gave the gift to her. Only after this ritual, the groom was able to come to the house and meet with the bride, ask her out, and so on.
