The company has a large selection of yachts of different styles and characters to choose from for your yacht wedding. The definite ‘queen’ of the team is the elegant Ocean Flyer, which can hold a party of up to 150 people – although if you’re looking for something a little cosier, it’s also intimate enough to hold a small wedding party of 10 people! Ocean Flyer is the creme de la creme  of the fleet, with three decks to choose from as a place to say your vows.

The beautiful Sea Star is the most spacious yacht of fleet, and after a massive refurbishment in early 2014, she also has three gorgeous decks for you to party the night away on! If you want an early start to your wedding day, then take a look at the Kurosivo yacht, which caters from 2 to 30 people and is available from 10am. This yacht is also the most popular choice for hen and stag parties and small gatherings!

Then the elegant Serenissima is your best choice, as this beautiful boat holds from 2 to 8 people. If you choose the East coast of Cypus as your wedding destination, then the Greek schooner San Antonio may be the perfect place for your ceremony! Moored in the stunning turquoise sea of Green Bay, this graceful wooden vessel holds 55 people.

The Magic of FamilyMoons at Beaches Resorts

beaches-1

Have you heard the story of Beaches Resorts?  Sandals Resorts recognized the need for a family-oriented resort where everyone can come together and have an amazing vacation. Beaches Resorts are designed for everyone, allowing you to celebrate the most important time of your life with all of your loved ones- including kids.  At Beaches, you can have the full involvement of children participating in the wedding proceedings, if that is a part of your vision. You also have the flexibility of when the adults want to continue the celebration for the kids to happily slip away and enjoy the many (and I do mean many!) age appropriate activities that Beaches has geared towards tots to teens.

“What about all those gorgeous wedding options available at Sandals?”

beaches-2

No worries! All of those beautiful wedding options are available at Beaches. Just like Sandals, Beaches locations are scattered throughout Caribbean with two in Jamaica, one in Turks and Caicos and one coming in Barbados.  Just like Sandals, Beaches offers breathtaking wedding locations spotted along flawless stretches of beach and intimate locations in various gardens. As a matter of fact, one of Sandals’ recent real weddings took place at Beaches Turks and Caicos and the photos speak for themselves!

Every wedding detail from the flowers to the cake is available at Beaches. It’s the exact same Weddingmoon.  Beaches just calls them FamilyMoons because your entire family, including kids, are a part of the magic! You can even plan your wedding colors, details and designs online with the interactive wedding designer at Beaches online just like you could do with Sandals online. Trust me the only difference is kids are welcomed to enjoy your wedding. You can explore all of this with the interactive Beaches wedding planner .

“What if I want an adults only honeymoon experience?”

Here’s the best part: after your magical wedding day at Beaches witnessed by your friends and family, you and your hubby can slip off to enjoy your romantic honeymoon at one of Sandals resorts in Jamaica.  You can opt to have your wedding ceremony at Beaches Resorts and then leave your friends and family behind to begin a stay at Sandals. This combination truly gives you the best of both worlds.

Sandals Resorts is the ultimate brand for two people in love; it is dubbed as uniquely romantic. It’s a win-win situation to wed at Beaches and honeymoon at Sandals.  The benefits of a destination wedding with both are truly endless.

Bridesmaid Clutches in 3 Styles: Modern, Preppy, and Retro Glam

light gray clutch

One of my very favorite gifts for bridesmaids is the handy-dandy clutch. It matches the dress, it fits the necessities like a phone and lip gloss, and if you select the right one, can be used again and again.  Here are 3 separate Etsy studios that all make some of our favorite clutches in modern, preppy, and retro-glam styles.  And as this month is all about the power of accessorizing, we think any of these clutches would perfectly complete your bridesmaids’ looks.

You will notice that some design elements remain the same throughout the styles. For example, ruching.  These loose pleats (for lack of a better definition) look stunning on a clutch and depending upon the fabric, color, and other details, can accompany any style.  The pale gray clutch above is an example of very loose ruching–it has a casual, but refined look. But the monochromatic palette and linen band makes it very modern.

polka dot wristlet clutch

Other elements, like leather, really only go well with certain styles.  This navy polka dot and leather wristlet clutch would be divine with a summery sundress, but look really out of place with a black mermaid gown.  These modern bags represent a laidback sensibility and a willingness to mix fibers, textures, and textiles.

colorblock clutchsilver ruched clutch

Of course, modern knows how to dress up, whether in minimalist chic like this simple gray ruched clutch, or all-out with earth-toned metallic sequins (below).  This sequined bag would look equally fantastic whether it was paired with a cocktail dress or a chambray romper.

sequined clutch

Now that it is summer, it seems like preppy weddings are in full swing!  And preps love nothing more than personalizing with a name or monogram.  They just do.  Maybe one too many shirts were stolen from them at summer camp, but I dare you to find a preppy wedding where the bride and groom haven’t put their initials on everything.  Extend the trend to your bridesmaids’ gifts, making each one unique to the gal.

floral and polka dot clutchmonogrammed preppy clutch

Also super-preppy is the effortless charm of mixing key prints and colors. Embrace kicky florals and seashore-worthy madras plaid on your clutches, and mix them with solids in like palettes.

This last set of purses might make you give a happy little sigh.  They are pure retro glam, bringing to mind Grace Kelly, gin martinis, and dashing white tie.  This oversized bow clutch (below) is perfection for a traditional event, and will be used again for many special occasions to come.

This pale ivory pleated clutch (above) is understated, but highly sophisticated, partially due to it’s formal structure.  The silver ruched purse below has a more relaxed structure, but it’s soft silk fabric billows out to form a classic shape.

Old-school glam also embraces unique and decadent fabrics.  Even at the most formal event you can play with some elements of pattern or texture, such as with this black peacock brocade.

Alcohol-Related Concerns at Your Wedding

pink-spritzer

There are so many sticky issues surrounding serving alcohol at your wedding reception.  Here are 3 common situations and some ways to minimize fallout from your decisions.

Not serving alcohol?  You’re ten years sober or your religion doesn’t allow drinking or you simply don’t want to deal with the extra paperwork and event insurance–no matter the reason, you aren’t planning on serving booze.  While your guests may really love to imbibe, it is ultimately your choice on whether or not to serve alcohol.  There are some hard-and-fast wedding rules regarding your reception, such as inviting everyone at your ceremony to your reception or greeting every guest at your event.  But serving alcohol isn’t on that list.  If guests complain, briefly explain your decision and then move onto how happy you are to see them.

Guests getting drunk.  Turns out that your college roommate still becomes a hot mess whenever there is tequila in a room.  Who knew?  If you are serving alcohol (especially hard alcohol), some of your guests will get drunk.  They just will.  Make sure water is readily available, and it wouldn’t be a terrible idea to stock up on carbs.  Task a member of the wedding party on sloppy-guest management, and arrange for cabs (or sober drivers) ahead of time.

Cash bar offenses.  Everyone has different opinions on cash bars.  Personally, I think they are a bad idea.  Serve what you have the budget for and move on.  But if you do decide to have a cash bar, I recommend offering it for cocktails or premium liquors as an addition to the beer or wine you are already serving your guests.  Make sure that you thoroughly understand the tipping policy of the cash bar bartenders and plan accordingly (it might be a good idea to take care of their gratuity instead of having them display and depend upon a tip jar).
