Weddings on Holiday Weekends
Gift or a curse? š«
Think of your guests
We really do not believe in telling our couples what to do or giving definitive ārulesā. We will offer guidance and advice based on our experience and sometimes that means some tough love advice, but you never have to take it.
Your wedding ultimately should be about what you want. It is part of our job, however, to think of guest experience. So if you are thinking about a Memorial Day Get A Way wedding weekend or a New Years Eve First Kiss as a married couple in front of everyone with a ceremony on December 31; go for it! But consider your guest experience.
Make it perky
Your guests are investing more time + holiday traditions to celebrate with you. Give them some perks! Here are two great ideas from our CEO and NYC wedding planner in NYC for over 10 years, Lara Mahler.
Have scheduled planned events that guests have the option to RSVP for and attend.
Comp a night stay for them.
Make an Uber code for the weekend so people can get around for free.
Make the wedding REALLY FUN. Heheā¦ need ideas? Check out our sister company THE PRIVILEGE IS MINE and stay tuned for our wedding planning app, ALTARE, dropping end of Summer.
