Weddings & Social Media this Bridal Season

Social media has been embraced by just about everyone in daily life and wedding

celebrations are no exception!

With the excitement of their engagement, brides are setting up personal wedding websites  to share engagement pictures; their beautiful new ring and in some cases, it serves as an introduction of her fiancé to friends and family from afar. It is an effective icebreaker for the wedding party to interact and get to know one another online, prior to meeting for the first time.

Emily Post manners recently released a statement that said,  “all the old rules that are stuffy can be tossed out!”

While social media is still relatively new to weddings, this generation of couples are internet babies and they want to embrace technology in as many ways as they can. And what better time than on their special day.

social media

Social Media is hot at weddings this season!


One cardinal rule,  that is a definite no-no, is using your mobile device during the ceremony. The bride can appoint one Chief Tweeter to quietly sit in a remote area of the venue to capture the vow-taking.  Attach a hash tag to the event and those who couldn’t make it can still be in the loop and follow the day’s proceedings.

At the reception, brides are setting up a computer station, where guests can post their well wishes and upload wedding day pictures they have captured. Other friends who couldn’t attend  can post and have their comments read much like the telegram of days gone by.

Webcasting is growing as weddings are broadcast on a live stream feed. If there are elderly relatives or guests who are unable to be with the couple at their location, they can still see the day live from the comfort of their homes.

It’s the 21st century and brides will wow their guests with this emerging trend, and many other special touches that make their wedding distinctive while shining a spotlight on their unique personalties!

Wedding Workshop a Success! The Wedding Guide Sponsors 3rd Consecutive Year

As a sponsor of the 3rd annual Wedding Workshop at St.  Clair Centre on  Thursday, October 21, we tip our hats to the organizers, A Perfect Day Wedding  and Event Planners, Cristina and Richelle, who skillfully put on this  SWEET evening-as SWEET as these cupcakes!!! Thank you for your efforts in bringing  this forum to Windsor/Essex County brides and grooms.

This was a new location this year and a great move to accommodate more  brides-to-be. St. Clair Centre, with its gorgeous view was a great place to showcase wedding professionals and make the event feel very special; like a wedding!

My role besides being a  valued sponsor (thank you ladies!) was to talk to the assembled audience of brides, grooms, moms and maid of honours, about emerging wedding trends that I’m spotting for 2011.  The audience was fixed on the conversation and they made a point to come up to me after the speeches to discuss my findings.

It is always terrific to hear the feedback immediately and I want to thank everyone, who took the time to ask their important questions, discuss their upcoming weddings and compliment The Wedding Guide and the very important role that it plays in bridal planning in this region.

The Wedding Guide has proudly been serving area brides for over 19 years and, we provide all the answers to the questions that are asked every t ime a wedding is hosted.

We endeavour  to address all the elements of weddings including this website which is Windsor/Essex County’s wedding web portal.
