Don't forgot about the bar! .On inquiry calls with potential couples, it seems like so many lately say that the most important part of their wedding day is:
1. Spending quality time with their families and friends, and
2. Having an epic and fun party!
Thinking about your bar early on will help make sure that your wedding day is the party you've been dreaming about.
Here are some things to consider when planning your bar:
--What do you want to serve? Beer & wine only? Signature cocktails? A full bar? There are many possibilities that work that will fit your budget & vision.
--How will guests get their drinks? Will you have bartenders pour and serve everyone? Will anything be self-serve? Do you want a bar trailer, or a showcase bar set up?
--What about non-alcoholic options? So many more of our couples and guests do not to drink alcohol, so what will you have available for them? Can you include a fun mocktail?
--What special moments do you want your bar to be a part of? Do you want a welcome drink or glass of champagne for your guests as they enter the ceremony? What about a champagne toast or a commemorative shot? Are there special elements you want your bar to help with?
Got a question about your bar set up? Drop it below and we'll answer with some ideas!

We've noticed a trend this year:.Many of our couples are opting out of photography coverage for the "getting ready" portion of their days.
This can be the absolute *right* choice for some couples and events. Photography coverage is typically based on the number of hours you want photographed, so that means you can capture more of the party if you skip the early portion of the day.
But for other couples having these fun details and casual moments caught on their day is so important.

Today is the final day for our series"The Best Parts of Weddings Aren't Always Planned".
The finale to this list is that our groom got called onto the stage to perform with his *dream* band, . To say it was incredible would be a total undersell!
So, now that we've been talking about surprise, unplanned moments from this wedding all week you might be wondering why.
Really, this entire theme, that unplanned moments are sometimes the most amazing, is one of the biggest planning philosophies here at Kosi Events.
We truly believe in well thought out, organized, beautiful, and planned events. But, it's when our couples give in to the day, the hour, and even the minute that they often find true bliss and the memories that they want to create.
Of course we can help create and curate amazing memories for our couples and their guests, but sometimes letting go of that pressure to create moments, leads to organic ones that are even more special.
Does that resonate with you? Do you want to plan a wedding that gives you space and time and room for authentic, surprise moments? Comment below and we'll DM you a link to our inquiry form so we can talk about how to make that happen.

As a reminder, this week we're doing a series called"The Best Parts of Weddings Aren't Always Planned".
Number two on our list from this amazing wedding is an impromptu first dance.
This couple had originally planned to skip just about all traditional wedding day items and opt for a laid back dinner followed by incredible music.
That is exactly the day they got, but the band called them onto the dance floor for a surprise first dance that was really just perfect.

One of our FAVORITE options for your big day is combining your first look with privately exchanging your wedding vows. .We did this for the first time waaaay back in 2019, and now it's become one of our go-to suggestions for couples who aren't sure they want to *spill their guts* in front of all of their family and friends.
This unique option accomplishes three things:
1. Sometimes it can feel awkward to have a first look! Like, what are you supposed to do? This gives your first look an extra purpose.
2. Not everyone is an extrovert, right? This option also allows our couples who just don't want to share their vows in front of everyone, while still giving them a place and space to write down how they feel on their wedding day.
3. Finally, this allows our couples to have the time and space to share a special moment before their guests arrive. This means their ceremony can be a bit shorter and they can get to partying with their guests sooner!
Are you doing a first look on your wedding day? Will you be sharing private vows during your first look, during the ceremony, or not at all? Comment below!

In honor of Valentine's Day, let's talk about planning an intentional, love-centered wedding day, like these two cuties. .Everything about this day was considered and carefully chosen to reflect the couple's love, as well as enhance the experiences of the guests. We didn't think a lot about the *traditional* wedding elements when working with these two!
Flip through these photos to see some elements that made the day feel intentional and love-centered.
Photo 1: Memorable first dance with cold sparks. Also, carefully chosen venue!
Photo 2: First look, just the two of them.
Photo 3: Multiple lounge sets where guests to sit and hang out and catch up through the night.
Photo 4: The perfect dress for our bride.
Photo 5: A glittery floral installation by that called guests to dance.
Photo 6: Adorable guest favors made by the bride's mom.
Photo 7: A family love letter printed on the cocktail napkins. We *cried* when we read them.
Photo 8 & 9: A DJ that kept them, and their guests, dancing all. night. long.
Photo 10: Cold sparks again because the guests truly FELT the love that this couple had when they went off.

With wedding sneaking up on us, there's a question that keeps coming up:."Will my dress get dirty?"
With enthusiasm, we always answer, "Yes!"
We're located in western Colorado and most of our weddings take place in the mountains or in the desert. Our ceremonies are almost exclusively outside, and our couples usually choose their venue based (at least partially) on the surrounding scenery.
We tell our couples that yes, their outfits will probably collect some dirt, dust, pieces of plants, and little bits of everything else that's happening that day, but we like to think that all of that debris tells the story of the day.
So instead of worrying about your wedding-day clothes getting too dirty, worry about them not getting dirty enough.
