Aster + Birch Weddings, Atlanta, GA (2024)

09/15/2021

Someone on a page I’m in asked this question yesterday. A popular question I get asked by couples and one that I was so excited to answer.
Check out my response below!

“Opinion from a wedding planner!
I have mixed feelings on favors. I completely understand the want to have them. I know it’s both traditional and a nice way to explicitly thank your guests for being there. And I support anyone who wants to have them.

But from a sustainability standpoint (one of my companies core values), they really are a huge waste. And from a financial standpoint, they MIGHT be a waste.

I can’t tell you how many favors I’ve seen left, thrown away or straight up ignored at the end of the reception. Unless it is something REALLY meaningful or personal, I assure you, you’re guests don’t care.

Since every aspect of a wedding has become so much about guest experience, It’s not really expected anymore to receive favors as a guest (the event/food/drinks/entertainment is the favor!)

I HAVE however seen and done weddings where certain types of favors go over really well. These have either been a personalized gift from the couple (like miniature engraved Christmas ornaments) or something your guests would use or display in their everyday lives (with one of my couples, we used mini potted succulents as es**rt card holders and the guests were instructed to take the succulent home).

Ultimately, it’s completely up to you though! If you want to have favors but want to ensure they don’t go to waste, try to find a way to double the function of them. That way if some get left, you can know that you didn’t waste them.”

The term "elopement" has definitely evolved over the years. Unlike 10 years ago, the word has come to mean not just the 'spur of the moment Vegas weddings' but also a beautifully crafted, Instagram-worthy adventure ceremony. Simply put, eloping means that you forego a formal wedding and instead, choose to elope for the ceremony. Whether you chose a courthouse, a chapel or a scenic location is completely up to you.

Today when I woke up and drank my coffee outside, I felt the sting of crisp morning air for the first time of the season. I couldn’t help but smile as I thought about the coming months and all the beautiful weddings we’re going to have.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
There’s a reason September - November are our highest sought after months. There’s something special about an autumn wedding. The cozy colors, the savory food and drinks that warm your soul, the smell of candles burning the rustling of the leaves as they fall… it’s surreal. It’s magical. And it takes our breath away every time.

What are you looking forward to most at your wedding this fall?

It’s wedding season y’all and we are over these custom invitations! Have you ordered yours yet?

Typically you want to send out your wedding invitations 6-8 weeks out from your wedding. So, if you’re having a fall wedding, now is the time to finalize and place your orders. Whether you’re purchasing from an independent stationer or a company, turnaround times vary. So make sure you allow yourself some wiggle room.

One of the easiest ways to show off your personality on your wedding day is your wedding dress style. You might not realize it, but everything from your dress's shape and color can say a lot about who you are as a person. And on your wedding day, there's no greater success than living in the moment as your true, authentic self.
If you're a fan of the mermaid style dress, this speaks to the level of glamour and sophistication in your life. You know what you want, and you're confident in how you go about getting it. 🧜‍♀️
But what if the A-Line style dress is more your thing? That's perfectly fine! In this case, you're more traditional in your looks. You want to look well put together, but all the extra bells and whistles aren't for you. 🔔
And finally, if you're opting for a princess gown for your wedding day, not only are you a hopeless romantic, but you're embracing your full fairytale fantasy, too. 👸

“Today is the day we will reminisce about as our hair turns grey and the wrinkles crowd the spaces on our cheeks. With grace and wisdom, I know I will look back on this day as the beginning of a journey – challenging at times, but an incredible journey nonetheless. And even as my memories fade, as the moments of my younger life seem farther behind me, I promise to never forget this day, our wedding day.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I promise to inspire you the way you have always inspired me, to lift you up when you falter, to bring you coffee in bed and kiss your cheeks when they are stained with the tears of hardship and the tears of happiness.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I promise to be the best friend, the secret keeper, the laugher-till-you-cryer that you have come to love. You are my everything and I can’t wait to call you my husband.”

¡Feliz Cinco de Mayo! 🇲🇽🎉

Today we celebrate the outnumbered Mexican Army's victory over the French Empire at the Battle of Puebla. It is a celebration of Mexican and Mexican-American people and culture. But why do we, as non Mexican-Americans observe this holiday?

Despite the free Taco Bell and Chipotle specials, it’s important that we remember what significance this historical victory had for the future of not just our southern neighbors, but to the U.S as well. In fact, this underdog Mexican victory played a large part in preventing French Emperor Napoleon III from helping the Confederacy win the American Civil War. 2021 marks the 159th anniversary of the battle on Cinco de Mayo.

Today, remember to celebrate respectfully, and with our fellow Americans, this major victory that changed the course of Mexico’s AND The United State’s history.

Ways to Celebrate Cinco de Mayo this year

🌮 Enjoy your favorite traditional Mexican meal by visiting an authentic and Mexican owned restaurant
Or for a more Covid-friendly option, visit your local “tienda” and purchase ingredients to make a recipe at home!

🎺 Broaden your horizons and check out a new Spotify playlist of Mexican artists

📝 Take a Spanish course online or sign up for a local class. It’s never too late to learn a new language!

💃🏽 Sign up for a Latin Dance class (or YouTube it!). From traditional Mexican Jarabe Tapatío to other dances like Samba, Rumba, Bachata, Merengue...there are so many options!

📰 on the current Mexican immigration policies and advocate for change where you see necessary

💵 Research and support a cause you resonate with like or (this can be either monetarily or through service)

Happy Celebrating! 🎊

Letting the natural backdrop of your venue be the focal point in your ceremony not only celebrates the beauty of where you are but cuts down the cost and waste of purchasing additional decor ! This alter space uses a simple wooden statement piece with minimalistic and in-season florals to spice it up a bit. Perfectly beautiful and eco-friendly!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
✨ : Build the structure yourself (or have it built for you) and after the wedding, incorporate the wood into a heirloom piece of furniture, art or functional piece like a picture frame or cutting board. ♻️ 🪵

Just a reminder that sometimes the candid photos of the unexpected are the ones you remember forever. And word of warning... your spouse may accidentally throw cake down your dress and that’s okay 👍🏼 📸

Introducing: Papaya Orange
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
One of the 2021 wedding colors we’re most excited about right now is Papaya Orange. If you’re not convinced quite yet, hear us out on this one. Over the last couple of years, orange tones (especially dark orange and rust) have continued to grow in popularity for bohemian and whimsical weddings. This earthy alternative is just as unique and eye-catching, with a slightly more playful vibe.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
“You can think of this wedding color as an updated and punchier version of coral or peach. It's slightly more saturated than its pastel counterparts, but it isn't as bold as a rust or tangerine orange, making it much easier to incorporate into a variety of wedding aesthetics.” -
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Want to incorporate this 2021 trend into your wedding? Let’s work together!

Have you ever thought about having a signature scent on your wedding day? 👃
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Your sense of smell is another awesome way that you can make memories that last a lifetime. By incorporating a specific scent into your wedding preparations, every time you smell that scent in the future, it will likely bring back imagery of your special day.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
There are three major categories of scents: warm, florals, and fresh. Each scent type has unique notes that make it stand out in a crowd. ☀️💐🌱
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
What's your favorite perfume/cologne that you use daily? Will it be part of your wedding day routine, or are you looking for something more exotic or something that will stand out when it comes time to say, "I do."
