Exciting times!  We were interveiwed by GetMarried.com and had a grea time!  Questions brought up were some that I feel would greatly help couples planing their wedding as I write.  First Dance,  the question was if the couple should select a song to dance to or if there is anything special that can be done for this.  And the answer is YES and YES.  The first dance is an extrmely important aspect of your reception.  This is where for the first time the couple dance as husband and wife.  I normally recommend my couples select a very special song.  A song that means so much to them and thier hearts.  Being the romantic that I am………….. I love to see couples dancing this first dance and looking as though there is noone in the room but them…………. how can this not get to one’s heart?   In one of the weddings I coordinated, we had a surprise for the bride and groom.  As the court entered for their grand entrance,  the court outlined the dance floor and made a receiving line for the bride and groom while holding a tea light in one hand and a handful of petals in the other.  When the bride and groom were in the middle of the dance floor, the court formed a circle around them “circle of friends” and just as the couples first song began  the court all threw the rose petals on the couple, showering them with the petals and placed the tealight around the dance floor and walked away.  If that wasn’t the most romantic setting anyone has ever seen at a first dance, I don’t know what is.  In the wedding video you can see how the couple is just taken a back on the surprised rose petal shower they’ve just had and how romantic the feeling was and everyone witnesseing this is left in awe.  As a planner, when you can see the emotions of your couple and their guest and see the incredible and unforgetable moments they are experiencing you now you have done your job!   As Always happy planning!
