Wedding Transport Ideas

Getting yourself and the bridal party to and from the wedding venue’s is rather important in the grand scheme of things. Though everybody does it not everyone will do it the exact same way.

Horse and Carriage

A horse-drawn carriage screams romance and is perfect for a fairytale or Victorian themed wedding. However, you must be sure to find alternate transportation for your wedding party if everyone will not fit. I don’t think these come in a stretch version.

Vintage Automobiles

Beautiful vintage cars are always in style and they make for gorgeous photos. A beautiful vintage Rolls-Royce is one that is mostly used for weddings due to its sophisticated and glamorous look and feel.Again, you may have to find alternate  transportation for your bridal party because this vehicle will most likely only fit the bride and groom.

Limos

This is the classic mode of wedding transportation. It’s less of a headache because everyone will surely fit. There are many different variations on a limo from luxury to town car and from stretch sedan’s to stretch SUV’s. The choice of which style of limo depends more on your personal taste and the size of your wedding party.

A Party Bus

This is another option that will assure that your entire party will fit and then some, these buses usually vary in size and can seat up to 45 people depending on the size. Depending on your personal taste and budget you can get anything from the basic party bus to a glam’d up ready to rock bus.

There are many other choices when it comes to choosing how you’ll get back and forth to your wedding, these few selections just scratch the surface of your many options.

 

 

Spring Wedding Color Ideas

A beautiful spring wedding is the ideal setting for many wedding, that’s why it is usually known as “wedding season”, Picking colors for a spring wedding can often be more fun than any other season because your color selections are often fun, funky, and just outright stunning in this weather.

Your colors always set the mood for your wedding and how your guests will feel in the space. The best advice will be to look at as many inspiration boards to decide exactly which group of colors will be best for you and your overall theme. Remember your colors have to fit everything you want for your wedding whether it’s formal, semi-formal, spring chic, or just wedding casual.

Here are some of my favorite spring color combo’s:

Pink and Orange are always great together. Especially for a beach wedding, the colors just pop!

 

 

 

 

Yellow , Orange , and Teal how gorgeous are these colors for an outdoor soiree.

 

 

 

This is another twist on Pink and Orange with softer shades of the colors.

Teal, Light Blue , and  Green. A lovely soft color combination that we love.

ENJOY!!!

Grooms Cakes

Though the main cake at your reception will be the center of everyone’s attention (outside of the bride of course!!! ). The groom can often feel left out with everyone marveling at his new wife’s beauty and the overall decor of the reception venue. However, things don’t have to be this way the bride can choose her own special way to make the groom feel special on their big day.

Groom’s cakes are usually funny reminder’s of exactly who the groom is and how much the bride adores those things or is willing to put up with them. It can also be something that they enjoy together and a reminder of how they first met if this was not already done for an engagement party cake.

For the most part everyone will be enjoying the main cake at your wedding but you want to assure that the flavor you choose compliments that of your main cake and doesn’t clash with it. Who know’s some guests may want to try both and it’d be better if they went down in harmony. The most interesting thing about a grooms cake is its extraordinary design being that they don’t have to stick to the rigid wedding uniform. Choosing this design will very likely be the most fun you will have with your cakes so enjoy every bit of it, especially if it’s going to be a surprise for your groom.

Grooms cake doesn’t have to adhere to anyone’s rules but its own, and there aren’t any! Your only limitation is your imagination. ENJOY!!!

Finding the perfect wedding venue is usually half the battle when you start planning your wedding. It can set the tone for the entire ceremony and the party afterward. This is why the choice is almost as pain staking as picking the perfect dress ( well… Maybe not that hard) but close. In Maryland there are plenty of beautiful places to exchange vows but which one will be right for you?

This inn is a great Maryland retreat for any great couple and their families. This renovated barn dating back to the early 1900’s is a jewel for historic themed weddings. Weddings and receptions are the main events held at this location since 1995 when the inn opened.

Pier 5 Hotel in Baltimore, MD

A lovely venue right on Baltimore’s inner harbor, this location is sure to give any couple exactly what they want. Boasting that they don’t specialize in the “cookie cutter” wedding , this locale and their wedding reps are sure to give you exactly what you’re looking for.

La Fontaine Bleu in Glen Burnie, MD

This spectacular venue is by far my favorite of all the Maryland venues! I am calling this venue a favorite due to it’s highly customizable decor and cake designs, all of the many variations they offer will allow one couples wedding and reception to look entirely different from the next, even if they were in the same room. Their newly updated chapel gives off a cozy and comfortable feel so that the couple can and will feel close to each other and their guests while not being cramped and overcrowded.

Renditions Golf Course in Davidsonville, MD

If you’re a golf lover this is the venue for you. While the bride primps and presses herself on the day before and day of the wedding , the groom can spend his time golfing a few rounds with his best man and even the brides dad. The great “Groom for a day” package is sure to make any groom’s feet nice and warm. During your reception the guests can enjoy the amazing clubhouse overlooking the entire golf course.

No, choosing a venue isn’t easy but it can definitely be fun for you and your groom. ENJOY!!!
