Festive Christmas songs for your Special Holidays!

Personally, I’m totally in love with the shimmering atmosphere of December and, although this year will be a bit different for all of us, you cannot lose the magic spirit of Christmas. What’s better than a festive Christmas playlist for your holiday season?

And if you’re planning to get married during the season of love in order to get everyone in the festive mood for your Christmas Wedding Day, you should take a look at some of my favourite festive Christmas songs!

Michael Bublé, Holly Jolly Christmas

“Somebody waits for you, kiss her once for me
Have a holly, jolly Christmas and in case you didn’t hear
Oh by golly have a holly jolly Christmas this year.”

Katy Perry, Cozy Little Christmas

“I don’t need diamonds, no sparkly things (no, oh, oh, oh, oh)
‘Cause you can’t buy this a-feeling (no, oh, oh, oh, oh)
Nothing lights my fire or wraps me up, baby, like you do
Just want a cozy, a cozy little Christmas here with you!”

Bobby Helms, Jingle Bell Rock

“Jingle around the clock, mix and a-mingle in the jinglin’ feet
That’s the jingle bell, that’s the jingle bell, that’s the jingle bell rock.”

Whitney Houston, One Wish (For Christmas)

“If I had one wish for Christmas, there would be joy and peace here on earth
If I had one wish for Christmas this year
“That we’d all, we’d all come together as one, as one yeah!”

Michael Bublé, Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas

“Have yourself a merry little Christmas
Make the Yule-tide gay
From now on our troubles will be miles away…”

Andy Williams, It’s The Most Wonderful Time Of The Year

“And hearts will be glowing when loved ones are near
It’s the most wonderful time, yes the most wonderful time
Oh the most wonderful time of the year!”

Michael Bublè, Let It Snow

“And my dear we’re still goodbye-ing
As long as you love me so
Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow.”

Bing Crosby, White Christmas

“I’m dreaming of a white Christmas with every Christmas card I write
May your days be merry and bright and may all your Christmases be white!”
I hope you will capture the heartfelt sentiment of this special moment!

All you need to know about Wedding Invitations

As many engaged couples who are getting married during this year, you are forced to handle a wedding postponement and reschedule your wedding celebrations too. Probably, you’ve already slowed down your planning process and went for a change-the-date, but luckily your invitations weren’t ready and sent yet!

Wedding invitations are one of the key things to focus on during your wedding planning. Here, you’ll find out everything you need to know about Wedding Invitations.

Choose Your Style

Your Wedding Invitations give your guests a first idea about what kind of ceremony your wedding will be, so the style of your invitation will say a lot about your marriage: classic and elegant… or casual and romantic?

Whatever the style of your ceremony is, your invitations must represent it to the fullest! If you want to give a romantic touch you should opt for a classic calligraphy or modern graphic design if you prefer a sparkling look.

Match with your Colours

Never forget your Wedding Colours! In order to give your entire ceremony a cohesive look, you should incorporate your colour palette into your wedding invitations as well. Basically, brides-to-be go for ivory, cream or milky-white paired with a dark color which highlights the texts… You could also opt for lively hues, pastel colours or gold and silver metallic fonts. And then, carry them throughout the rest of your wedding paper such as cards, stationery, menus combining them with your venue for example.

Play with Shapes

If you don’t want to choose the classic rectangular shape for your wedding invitations, you could focus on modern and alternative forms such as circular or squared shapes in order to give your invitations an original look!

Choose accurately Your Words

The wording on the invitations should be accurately thought. Traditionally, the main information to be included are bride and groom’s name, date of the big day, general information about location and reception and finally time of your ceremony. You might use traditional wedding invitation wording such as They celebrate their union or informal invitation wording such as Celebrate our Wedding with us, for example. Furthermore, be sure to give your guests a deadline to confirm their presence at your wedding including a final line such as The favor of a reply is requested by… or a more informal one such as R.V.S.P. Last but not least, do not forget your thank-yous!

Put a decoration

Add some personal touches to your Wedding Invitations such as a wax seal with your initials, a ribbon, a tiny flower or a scented item. Your guests will feel pampered from the get-to!

When to Send

Generally, invitations should be sent 3 or 4 months before the Wedding. You & your Hubby-to-be have been planning your big day for the last year, but your guests need to save the official date on their calendars in advance. Moreover, if you’re having a Destination Wedding, you should send out your invitations even earlier… your guests may also need to ask for time off from work and make hotel reservations.

Book your Wedding Bond!

Wedding Amalfi Team can’t wait to meet you to design, step by step, your destination wedding and your bachelorette party together. As a wedding gift, I will be happy to put at your disposal a Wedding Bond and freeze my fees for the wedded-to-be 2021 offering them the same fees of 2020. My goal is to make dreams come true!

How to seat your guests at your Wedding Reception: here come my tips!

Deciding on the seating arrangements for your guests can be one of the trickiest tasks in wedding planning. Yes, I fully understand it! Usually, invitees like to know where they’re sitting and with whom and if you’re having a considerable number of guests, a hundred or more, you’ll want to make sure everyone sits at the right table.


A&D’s Wedding Ceremony

There are many couples who start their seating arrangements just some days before their ceremony, but I’m sure you will have more important things to think about at such times. Since you have enough time to think about one of the last tasks on your wedding-to-do-list ….Here come my tips on how to arrange the wedding seats!

Table shapes come first

Before you start your seating arrangements, you should have already pick the shape of your tables. The size and the shape of your tables will tell you more about the number of invitees who can be seated at each one. Traditionally, round tables tend to be the most preferred ones… but lately even the imperial tables are in vogue allowing a greater number of seats due to their capacity.

Bear your venue in mind

When it comes to setting tables and guests up, the second most important point is definitely your venue! Older guests, for example, may prefer to be seated a little further from the band or out loud music. On the flip side, your friends may prefer to be given the best seats in the room to join the dance floor with you!

Mix & Match your guests

Once you’re sure about who’s coming to your ceremony, mix and match your invitees according to their relationships and interests creating true and proper small groups of people, such as: family members, old friends, work colleagues, distant relatives and so on. This will help you to make every guest feel comfortable with other invitees during the wedding ceremony having a pleasant chat or why not meeting new people.

Where and with Whom?

Classically, the newlyweds seat at their ‘special table’ in the middle of the room – where everyone can see them – and depending on how large the table is…the Groom and the Bride could sit with the maid of honor and the best man. Regarding the parents of the couple, they often take sit opposite each other at large family tables, with grandparents or close family friends. Considering another option, you could also arrange them at the same rectangular table if it is long enough!

Keep your friends close

Your friends should take a seat at the third-best tables in the entire room. You should bear in mind: the first is the newlyweds’ table, the second is parents’ table and the third nearest table is reserved to your coolest friends!

Don’t forget the kids

If you’re inviting several kids to your ceremony, you should seat them together at the ‘kids’ table’. Do not forget give them some activities in order to keep the kids busy during the lunch or dinner – their parents will appreciate it! On the other hand, if your flower girls and the ring boy are the only kids invited, let them simply seat with their parents.

Wedding tableau & place cards

As soon as you’ve figured out where to seat everyone, you need to decide how to lead them to their seats. Usually, places are displayed by table in a Wedding Tableau placed near the entrance of the reception, listing your guests’ names with their assigned tables. In addition, if you want you can place cards at each table to give clear seats or leave your invitees free to choose how to seat by themselves.

I’m here for these and many other tips on how to plan your #destinationlove together.

Let 2021 be the happy one!
