13 THINGS BOUND TO HAPPEN ON YOUR WEDDING DAY

1. You won't eat much.
    Nerves, getting ready, chatting with guests... other things will more than likely take priority.

2. Something will go wrong...
    It's inevitable. Don't fight it. Just prepare as much as possible and take it as it comes. 

3. ...But you won't really care.
    You have more important things to focus on... like marrying the love of your life.

4. You will be nervous...
    Some anxious butterflies are to be expected.

5. ... But also strangely calm.
    Just relax as much as possible and enjoy the day.

6. You'll secretly love the attention.
    It's your day - enjoy. Have your Beyonce moment. 

7. Tears will flow.
    Maybe you'll cry, or your spouse, or your parents, or the officiant... someone will cry.

8. Your cheeks will hurt.
    All the smiling will take it's toll, but it's worth it.

9. At some point, it will hit you that you have a husband/wife now.
    Super weird and super awesome.

10. You'll have a blast. 
      Enjoy. Live it up. Bask in the wedding glory.

11. The day will fly by.
      It will seem to move at the speed of light.

12. You'll be glad, but also quite sad it's all over. 
      You're relieved to be free from all the planning, but will strangely miss it all. 

13. You'll be married!

      Congratulations!

WEDDING TREND TUESDAY - CIRCULAR SEATING

We here at The White Dress Boutique have seen a lot of weddings and we love new and interesting ideas and ways of breaking the traditional wedding "mold". That's one of the reasons why we love what we've been seeing the past few years when it comes to ceremony seating. More and more couples are veering away from having chairs and seats in rows and arranging them in circles and semi circles instead.

Now, you may not think this is such an exciting or interesting topic, but just wait until you take a look at some of these photos of weddings that have arranged their ceremony seating in circles.

Arranging your seating like this allows all of your guests to have a killer view of the ceremony. They are less likely to have someone directly in front of them since you can more easily stagger without it looking off kilter. It is also easier to get more family members closer to the "action" so to speak, and people can more easily see your faces as you say your vows instead of your backs.

We also love this trend because it allows the happy couple to be literally surrounded by love and happiness. To be able to have your friends and family from a literal ring around is such a neat idea and allows you to see all of your guests' smiling faces while you marry the love of your life. So cool!

Obviously, this style of ceremony seating may not be an option for you at your wedding venue, but if there is some freedom there, consider circular or semi-circular seating as a happy alternative to rows.
