Episode Notes
Wedding Rule #1 - Don’t get arrested on your wedding day. Seems pretty obvious, right? Not so much! In this episode, we talk about things you definitely should do and things you definitely should not do at your wedding. We also answer some burning questions that we’re sure you’re asking yourself… Can you do sparklers at your destination wedding in Hawaii? What happens if the groom and his groomsmen get into a fight and the police show up? Do you need to feed your wedding planner? What happens if you forget to bring your pants to the wedding venue? Listen in to hear our thoughts and advice for all of the above, and more.

Our Dos and Don’ts for your Wedding Day

  • Don’t get arrested and end up in jail. Does this even have to be said? Based on our experience, yes. Yes it does.  
  • Do know your guests. “Know your audience” and focus your time, energy and budget on what’s important to you and your guests.
  • Don’t pack in too many things on your wedding day. Give yourself time to breath (and troubleshoot issues that may arise). 
  • Do take care of your vendors. PRO TIP: Feed your vendors - they’re working hard for you all day! Also, give them time to use the bathroom. (Joe needs to pee!!) 
  • Do put thought into your wedding photos. Curate a family photo list, but give your photographer the creative space to take your photos throughout the day. 

Links and Miscellaneous Thoughts from this Episode:

  • Intro: Joe talks about a CRAZY wedding in Florida, where a bride and caterer were arrested after lacing the food with weed! Is that crazy? Or a good idea? 
  • FACT: You CAN do a cannabis bar at your Colorado wedding, and at Canada weddings, too! 
  • Tessa made a mistake!! I kept saying corsage, knowing it wasn’t the right word, but couldn’t actually remember the correct word. It’s a CORSET-back, ladies. CORSET.
  • How to correctly lace up a corset back wedding dress.
  • Do you know how to tie a bowtie? (Joe can’t!) Check it out HERE
  • Do you know how to tie a double windsor knot? Check it out HERE.
  • Take care of your vendors. Remember, Tessa needs to eat, and Joe needs to pee.
  • Vendor meals are ALW
