Ah, the timeless love affair between brides and shoes. Why do brides obsess over finding the perfect pair to walk down the aisle? Well, for starters, we all know that Cinderella's story wouldn't be quite as magical if her glass slipper was replaced with a frumpy pair of flip flops. Brides want their shoes to make a statement, whether it be a touch of sparkle peeking out from under their gown or a bold pop of colour daring to steal the show. Plus, let's not forget about all those photos capturing every angle of their footwear - they want something picture-perfect to remember for years to come! So, in short, brides and shoes are a match made in wedding heaven - because who needs Prince Charming when you've got a killer pair of heels?

Do we set up an open bar or do we ask our guests to pay?

When it comes to choosing between setting up an open bar or asking our guests to pay, let's think about it this way: do we want our wedding reception to be remembered as the place where people danced until dawn and had the time of their lives, or as the event where Uncle Bob got into a heated debate at the cash bar over who should pick up the tab for his seventh gin and tonic? Sure, an open bar might cost a pretty penny, but can you really put a price on creating unforgettable memories with your loved ones? Plus, let's face it, no one likes being hit with a bill at the end of the night - especially after they've already given you a gift. So why not treat your guests to a little liquid courage on the house and watch the magic unfold? Trust me, it'll be worth every penny.

While it may seem sacrilegious to some purists, serving pork at an Italian wedding is not necessarily a grave sin. In fact, pork dishes have long been a staple in Italian cuisine, from succulent porchetta to savoury prosciutto. However, if your guest list includes devout vegetarians, vegans or observant Muslims and Jews, having pork on the menu could lead to some raised eyebrows (and possibly a few empty plates). So, while pigging out on porchetta may sound like a delicious idea, be sure to consider your guests' dietary restrictions before digging in. After all, you wouldn't want any disgruntled grunts ruining the matrimonial merriment!

To buffet or not to buffet at your wedding, that is the question! While the idea of a smorgasboard of delicious options may seem tempting, it's important to consider logistics and overall vibe. Buffets can create a fun, interactive experience for guests as they mix and mingle while choosing their own culinary adventure. Plus, it can be more cost-effective and accommodate various dietary restrictions. However, there are drawbacks to buffets such as potential long lines, food getting cold quickly, and possible wastage. For those going for a more elegant affair, a plated meal might be the way to go. Ultimately, whether you choose to buffet or not to buffet depends on your vision for the big day - just make sure whatever decision you make is catered to perfection!
