For many engaged couples, planning a wedding often means meeting a host of expectations from friends and family and following a long line of matrimonial traditions. Weddings are one of the few remaining conventional customs that still follow a fairly consistent, structured course of events, and it is easy to feel pressure to maintain the tradition and structure of the ceremony.
But if you are a more progressive, modern couple, you might want to steer away from the dozens of etiquette rules in favor of a more personalized celebration. Whether you choose an unconventional Atlanta wedding venue or forego the iconic white gown, knowing which etiquette rules are going out of style will help in knowing where to bend and where to break.
When planning your once-in-a-lifetime wedding, you’ll likely spend some time organizing an equally memorable reception. If you’ve been to a wedding this year already, you may have experienced the popular Great Gatsby themes, purple mood lighting or other familiar scenarios of weddings past. A blushing bride (and her handsome groom) deserve to have their own special theme, and rightfully so.
