The ugly truth about Wedding Details..
1. Those beautiful large installs?
We love them too — statement arches, hanging florals, big wow moments!
But those gorgeous pieces take time. You may need extra venue hours for setup and teardown. Beautiful details don’t just appear — they’re built.
2. Personalized cocktail napkins?
They’re so cute (we’re obsessed)… but here’s the truth — there are always tons left over. If you’re okay with extras, go for it! Otherwise, scale down your order and save the budget for something guests will notice more.
3.Personal items & décor:
Anything you bring in? It has to go back out.
By the end of the night, you’ve added cards, gifts, flowers, maybe even leftover cake. Suddenly, those boxes double — make sure you have a trusted person or team to take it all home.
4. Exits are tricky:
They look magical in photos — but behind the scenes, it’s a few minutes of chaos.
Guests are chatting, the night’s wrapping up, you’re doing a private dance, and then everyone’s told to grab sparklers/item ( whatever it is) and head out. It’s a bit like herding cats 🐈 — go with the flow, enjoy your moment, and end on a high note!
5. Weather & Plan B’s:
It’s not the pretty part, but it’s the real part. Wind, rain, humidity — they all affect florals, candles, and décor setups. A great vendor team always has a Plan B ready so your day stays beautiful no matter what Mother Nature decides.
So yes, Pinterest gives you the inspo, but your vendor A-Team brings it to life. ✨
Beautiful details don’t just happen. They’re planned, timed, and handled by the right crew.
