A MORNING WITH THE PARTNERS
Before the start of the wedding ceremony, more brides may want some one-on-one moments with their partners. Apart from the glitz and glam, the wedding day is also usually full of jitters. By the mere fact that the couple left their home to go somewhere different to get married, they may need some words of affirmation or reassurance from each other to lower the anxieties of the day. A morning with the partners may alsow be the perfect time to take first-look photographs with the couple while they are still fresh and before everyone else has a glimpse of your intimate moments.

WELCOMING FAMILY TRADITIONS
Although the bride and their partner may want privacy on their big day, the need to include family and family traditions is becoming a popular trend, especially for the majority of people who value family ties. You want the adventurous intimate aspects of the wedding but you just don’t know how to include guests. While some couples will continue to elope with just them two, we see more wedding parties organized for a later date, with the aim of honoring families and their traditions. Another way to have a small, intimate wedding but still include guests would be to find a location where everyone can get to. A place that is easily accessible but also has the
THE DITCHING OF THE VEIL
Ditching the veil might make some brides feel guilty for breaking traditions. However, here is the truth about veils; The veil tradition dates back to Roman times when there were arranged marriages and veils were used to make sure that the groom did not have a chance to see
the bride or change his mind in the case that the bride was not as beautiful as he anticipated. Veils were a symbol of purity, they were meant to protect the bride from evil spirits that would either inflict harm on the bride or the nuptials.
