What wedding detail(s) are you expecting/ hoping will wow your guests the most?

Happy Friday ladies! :)

Re: QOTD

  • i am hoping the hotness of my fiance wows my guests the most ;)
  • We'll have 2 questions for everyone today. Oh well- Its friday. :)
    Im hoping to have a video guest book, that people can record a message for us to include in our video. Its like a photobooth kind of style- Im going to make some fun props and buy things at the dollar store. I just hope it works out well!!

    I laughed out loud to this!

    I hope the chandeliers and draping we're doing in the tent on the terrace at our reception are "impressive" . . . but I suppose I would have never noticed stuff like that prior to wedding planning, so chances are no one will care! :(

  • I'm having a celebrity guest appearance in my photo booth and I'm hoping people will go crazy and take lots of pictures with him:




    Also, my FI's surprise birthday cake is sure to be a hit, and I'm SO excited for it!

    Love it k888!


    I really hope people are wowed by our location.  It's not a formal venue, but I hope the backdrop of the Tetons will make up for that.  The brides I have emailed have all said using this venue was wonderful and the service was amazing.






    My sister's husband - the only person who has been here before - had the nerve to tell everyone that "it's not that nice of a place."  I could smack him.

    Gina, what a jerk!

    I'm hoping to wow people with our father/ daughter 80s dance we're planning. Decor/ colors... can I say my dress?? Hahaha! I mean to say I want to at least wow FI. And if it all works out, gourmet cocktail jello shots!
  • Gina, your BIL (which is Dutch for ass-cheeck) sucks.

    I hope to wow them with pretty string lights and a camp fire, with our beautiful ceremony, with a grand dessert table and with our beaming faces.

    But honestly, I just want to let some jaws drop with my dress :)

    We are hoping to wow ppl with a special tradition from FI's Croatian side of the family. It's a pre-wedding negotiation that used to occur in Croatia back when weddings were arranged. We are basically going to act it out, but in a funny way... kind of hard to explain on here but I'm hoping it's a lot of fun. We both chose a negotiator from our respective families to represent us and they will have to bargain with each other to make the marriage agreement. But it has to happen before the wedding to make sense logically, so we are actually doing it at the RD the night before.

  • although my first post was a bit of a joke, honestly, while i am sure my decorations, food, cake, etc. will all be great, i want people to be wowed by how in love my fiance and i are. some weddings i have been to, i just haven't gotten the feeling that the couple was head-over-heels or frankly even that excited to marry each other. we are, and i hope people see that.
  • What wedding detail(s) are you expecting/ hoping will wow your guests the most?

    I'm hoping the location and the uniqueness of all the little touches FI and I are doing.

    The view from our venue - and the unique charm of our ceremony site..

    oh and how madly in love we are ;) but they already know that.

  • Our venue itself and our dessert experience (aka buffet) as my mom calls it!
    Photobucket
  • Hmmm...I really just want the entire package to wow them lol Maybe our bright colors and how we incorporate them.

    And my dress...when trying on dresses, I kept saying "I want them to say 'WOW' as I walk down the aisle!" So...I guess that's my true answer lol

  • Pretty much the whole package. Also, me in my dress! But mostly I just want them to love the whole expeierence. I get a lot of crap about how I'm "so young" (I'm 24) so I want everyone to be impressed by how elegent and grown up everything is, then maybe they will stop treating me like a child.

  • No one but FI knows that I'm going to sing. I know people love to hear me sing but we aren't telling anyone.

    I think they will be more surprised then wowed.

  • I'm just hoping they're wowed by the reception venue and how we're putting everything together and by my dress! I'm never the center of attention with how huge my family is so it will be nice to be for once. :)

    I'm hoping to wow them in my dress.  Also I think a lot of them will enjoy the desserts (cupcakes and cannolis) as well as the photobooth! I really hope they just enjoy the whole thing.

  • I definitely hope our venue wows our guests! We're getting married in Santorini. 

    Overall, I hope the decor wows them. I'm spending a lot of time figuring out centerpieces and little details, right down to the menus at their place setting, the napkins, etc.
