There was a great article on LAStyleUnveiled.com today about wedding traditions- the history behind them and what they mean to today’s brides and grooms. I don’t typically make these kind of posts, but I thought the article was really interesting and even answered some of my own questions about where wedding day traditions originated.
I especially loved this passage at the end of the article written by Orange County wedding coordinator Jesi Haack:
“We are unique, quirky, and truly individualistic beings who will always be striving to make our own mark in the world. Ask yourself, “What STATEMENT do I want to make to my guests?†… And make that statement from YOU, not from your mom, your grandma, or any website you have been stalking. Do something different. Be unique. Surprise your guests. Create something unexpected. Do the opposite of tradition. Create your own tradition. Be remembered for YOU.”
I could not have said it better myself!
Happy Monday!
Heather, THANK YOU!!!!! I’m glad it was at least informative 🙂
