Both artists and enthusiasts of all things “Ital Both artists and enthusiasts of all things “Italy,” Aubrie and Russell had no hesitation about where they’d celebrate the beginning of their marriage. Initially, the couple had open minds about their Tuscany wedding venue. However, Borgo Stomennano (which dates back one thousand years and once hosted the famous Italian poet, Dante Alighieri) quickly won out over the rest. “Dante says he was so struck by the site of the powerful towers of the nearby town Monteriggioni, emerging from the mist that he decided to mention them in the Divine Comedy,” Russell says.

Is it ever okay to “fire” someone from your we Is it ever okay to “fire” someone from your wedding party? We consulted Conflict Resolution expert @damalipeterman to get her thoughts. She says yes, BUT… 1 - When you are selecting your wedding party, do not expect those who have acted poorly at weddings in the past to be different just because it’s YOUR wedding. You’ll want to be extra careful to protect your peace on your wedding day! 2 - Try to mitigate conflict or issues by giving each person in your party a job to focus on. This way, there is less opportunity for toes to be stepped on. Listen to the full episode on DESTINATION I DO, THE PODCAST by following the link in our bio or searching on your fav podcast platform! (P.s. We’re on YouTube too!) Do you agree with Damali? 🤔 📸 @jameephotography
In the small residential community on Florida’s In the small residential community on Florida’s Gasparilla Island, a long tradition has been held. On the eve of a wedding happening on the island, brides are given a bottle of gin to hang upside down in a tree, which is rumored to provide clear skies on the couple’s wedding day in Boca Grande. Natalie and Steven helped carry on this sweet tradition and can attest to two things. One: the tradition really works. Two: Gasparilla Island is one heck of a special place.

As a people pleaser, it was so hard to say “no” to requests for plus ones at our destination wedding. So, here are five thoughtful response examples to kindly deny someone a plus one to your wedding: “Due to limited space, we can only accommodate our invited guests.” “We’re aiming for a more intimate gathering, so we’re keeping the guest list tight.” “Unfortunately, due to our budget constraints, we can only invite the people on the list.” “We’ve made the decision to keep the guest list focused on family and close friends to make it a more personal celebration.” “Unfortunately, we can’t accommodate an extra guest. We’ve had to make some tough decisions about our guest list due to venue limitations.” Additionally, it may be wise to express your enthusiasm to have them in attendance with something like - “I hope you understand. We can’t wait to celebrate with you!” Obviously, you’ll want to customize these responses to fit your speech/texting style, but they can act as inspiration. Share this post with a people-pleaser friends who’s planning a wedding. They’ll thank you, trust me! 😉
