What are our thoughts on a cake cutting moment? Is it an ageing tradition or are we seeing the return of the addition to your day?

I have seen so many couples choose different moments throughout the day to cut their cake. Often times the moment right before the first dance is given to the cake cutting however I’ve also seen couples cut the cake as they enter their reception!

If you’re not a cake lover, perhaps opt for a dessert table! Just don’t do what I did and not even indulge in any as I’m was too distracted by the dance floor 🙊

A reception dress is becoming an iconic moment of your day and I'm here for it. As much as you adore your wedding gown that you said your promises in, there is nothing that says PARTY then when a bride walks out in her chosen mini dress. The dance floor is in demand, you make your entrance and everyone (including confused nana) brings the vibe.

If you're still on the fence of whether to rock a reception dress change, consider this is your sign.

Being mindful of the scent you choose to wear on your day can hold so many memories in the future. I often spray the specific scent I wore on the day I said ‘I do’ and it immediately transforms me back to that exact moment.

WEDDING DAY TIP - remember to give your perfume to your photographer for your detailed shots, particularly if it’s a boujee bottle.
