My Wedding in Canada

Recently I attended my friend's wedding in Toronto, Ontario. Although this was not my first wedding to attend it definitely was one of the most memorable ones. While this was not the first time to come to Toronto, for some reason it was felt like it was the first time. The beginning of spring was marked by my arrival to Toronto to celebrate Sarah's wedding. It has been almost two years since we have last seen each other but we felt like it was only yesterday that we said good bye to each other. It took a for a very special wedding day to finally reunite us back together!! My flight to Toronto has been relative short as I have slept through the most of it :) Refreshed and looking strong I came there Thursday evening and luckily for me Sarah came to the airport to greet me. We hugged and started historically laughing as much we could. It felt right finally being reunited. The slow ride back to her house has been marked with countless giggles and stories about her wedding day. On the way home she revealed to me that I would have a special honor of picking the wedding favours for her wedding day. I was amazed that she would entrust me with such an honor especially since I have never picked wedding favours for a wedding before. My first worry that came to mind was how and where I could find the right wedding gifts. I never game much thought about wedding favours so I didn't quite know what to expect. I knew that if I was to pick the right wedding gift I had to ask Sarah as many questions as possible. So....I started asking :) I was asking about the wedding theme, wedding colors and her wedding dress. I wanted to make sure that if I picked something it would be good. To my surprise I was able to find very cool wedding favours at wedding favours canada The best part about them is that all of the wedding favours came from Canada and I knew that I would have my precious treasures just in time. Now, I am off to go out but keep on guessing which wedding favours I got....I knew you would want to know what I got but you will just have to wait until the tomorrow :)))) XoXo

Music Tips

A great way to save money on your wedding is to use an iPod. It’s cheap and easy. You don’t need to be nervous about the sound system because you can rent big speakers and plug them into the iPod. The worst case scenario is that the iPod doesn’t work, so make sure to have a backup plan (another iPod with the same song list). iPods can be left on shuffle, but have someone in charge of changing the playlists from cocktail to dinner and so on.

Creating a reception list can be daunting so it is always a good idea to start building the list a month before the wedding. Remember, the list is not set in stone so you can change it or add new songs whenever you like.

Also, to make it easier for yourself, instead of having one long list break it down into three smaller lists: cocktail, dinner and dancing. For cocktails you’ll want to have something laid back, dinner go with soft music and the dancing list should be full of uplifting, fun songs to let the people know it is time to party.

Brides and grooms always wonder what the best way is to guarantee a good mix, and the rule is usually seven to one. For every seven songs have one slow one. The slow songs will give couples time to connect and singles to catch their breath. Also, a mix of classics and newer stuff is a must if you want everyone to enjoy your party.

One thing to remember: a wedding is not a concert. During cocktails and dinner people will be talking so the music should blend into the background. Once it’s time to party you can crank the volume up.
