Vintage style weddings are all the rage and they are definitely not going anywhere. Things that remind us of our childhood are fun touches to add to a wedding where adults reminisce about old memories such as toys, objects, colors and ideas… which will definitely make for a wedding with even more special memories.
The engagement or dating photography shoot is a growing trend, especially because it is a great way for the bride and groom to get to know and feel comfortable with their wedding photographer. Another trend for engagement sessions is to incorporate a certain style into the shoot, in order to tell a little story.

Be it because of the economy or because everything that is handmade makes a wedding even more special, a growing number of brides and grooms from all over the world will not go without their very own contribution to the wedding – elements they handmade together make for a very unique wedding.
The wedding cake table no longer has only one protagonist – the wedding cake. It now exhibits desserts and sweets neatly arranged and aligned so as to complement the wedding cake in a very organized and elegant way.
Smaller weddings that are focused on details and on the quality of socializing between guests are a reality. The maxim “less is more” is also applied to the number of guests attending the wedding. Spending more on small details, while creating a more homely atmosphere is a major wedding trend for 2012.
A rustic chic decoration is a major wedding trend. Outdoor weddings continue to be very popular and the rustic chic décor that accompanies it (such as a wedding in the country) is a growing option for brides and grooms everywhere.
Instead of the old and boring wedding movies, the growing trend is wedding movies which are short films where the bride and groom tell a story. They are the true stars. Filmed with the quality of a big screen movie or inspired by a 1970s flick, this short story is a beautiful memory for reminiscing and sharing with the guests, for example.
Although old tradition has it that the bride and groom should not see each other before the wedding ceremony, the new tradition says that they should see each other, in private, right before the ceremony. Right before the wedding, the bride and groom should surprise each other (the photographer must also be present to capture the moment!) and admire one another in a very emotional pre-wedding moment. Not only is this a fantastic moment to get on camera, but it also makes the wedding even more special.
As tradition has it, after cocktail hour and once guests have been
seated for lunch or dinner, the newlyweds make their grand entrance.
Walking into the reception hall, hand in hand, to the sound of a great
song and the applause of the guests is pretty common in most weddings.
And while there is nothing wrong with this type of entrance, why not
make it extra special? Here are 6 great ideas.

6 creative entrances for the wedding reception
1. Dim the lights
If possible, meaning if the venue is properly equipped, make a Hollywood entrance under one beaming spotlight. Before the newlyweds enter the reception area, have someone dim the lights and, as the bride and groom walk, have a spotlight that gets brighter and brighter shining only on them. Don’t forget to choose a wonderful song for the occasion and have the spotlight follow you until you reach your seats, where you can seal that glamorous Hollywood entrance with a kiss.2. Introduce your parents
Following your entrance into the reception hall and once at your seats, take a moment to introduce your parents to all the guests, thank them for all their help and support and, of course, make sure you let them know how much you love them. Besides being a great way to show your appreciation, you’ll definitely hit a chord with the guests and, as you know, the more emotional the wedding, the more special it becomes.3. Use a theme
Together with a group of friends, plan a surprise for all the guests who are going to see you walk through the reception door. Be inspired by a specific theme and get all dressed up for a 1970s disco night or recreate the scene from a musical, for example. This requires rehearsing everything prior to the wedding, so that on the big day everything runs smoothly once you burst through the wedding reception door singing and dancing in all your glory.4. Let the bridesmaids and groomsmen shine
If you decide to have bridesmaids and groomsmen at your wedding, than use them for a fun and creative entrance. Let them lead the way for the newlyweds with a short choreography danced to the sound of a great song; the bride and groom can enter and finish the dance. Great fun and totally unforgettable! Don’t forget to thank the bridesmaids and groomsmen for their moves and participation!5. Ask the DJ or a friend to read a short introduction
Create a romantic entrance, with a touch of suspense. Prepare a short biography of your own personal love story (no more than 3 minutes) and before you enter the reception, dim the lights and have someone read it (preferably without being seen), accompanied by some background music. At the end, the newlyweds make their grand entrance to the sound of happy applause.6. Paparazzi effect
Before you make your grand entrance, ask the DJ to instruct the guests to pick up the disposable cameras (preferably with flash) previously set up on all tables and to photograph your entrance just as if you were a celebrity couple in the eyes of the paparazzi. As soon as you walk into the reception area, you’ll have a ton of flashes illuminating your entrance.
