Little Wedding Tips (II) - 結婚小貼士 (II)



蜜月篇 
當您的假期供應短缺,沒有什麼比"minimoon"更好:只要有4,5天,您就可以沉醉在一個浪漫而且離家不遠的地方,享受二人世界。當你有時間後,才去補渡蜜月也可以。  
On Honeymoon:
When your vacation days are in short supply, nothing beats a minimoon: typically, four or five days of indulgence in a romantic locale close to home. You can always book that longer honeymoon later when time allows.
From Modern Bride


接收篇 
您可以要求婚禮舉行的場地,給您看以往舉行宴會,而且不只是婚宴的照片。你在過程中或者會找到些佈置場地的靈感!
On Reception:
Ask to see photos of previous events-not just weddings-that have taken place at your reception site. You just might pick up a few great styling ideas in the process

準備篇 
在籌備您的婚禮時,靈感可能在任何時間飄來,所以隨時要有紙筆在手,令你可以寫下好的靈感。
On Planning & Preparation:
Wedding inspiration can come at any time, so keep a pen and paper on hand so you can write down ideas on the fly.

禮服篇 
作為新娘,你一定會知道你和新郎當日的服飾。如果您唔想他知道任何細節但仍可以配合您的服飾的話,為他選擇一條領呔或者袖口鈕來配合你的婚紗或主題。如果您擔心他會估到您穿甚麼,可以吩咐伴郎當日上午才給他帶上。  
On Tuxedos & Suits:
As the bride, you will know what both your attire and the groom's will look like.  Without letting him know any of your dress details you can still coordinate your looks.  Select a tie for him to wear that will match the color or accents of your dress or buy him cuff links that complement your theme.  If you're concerned he'll figure out what you'll be wearing, have the best man give him the complementary accessories the morning of the wedding.

鮮花篇 
當您準備場地佈置時,不要忘記裝飾您的椅子。具創意的椅子裝飾,例如以鮮花圍邊和別緻的布料有助美化任何場地,令人有難以忘懷的感覺。
On Flowers:
Don't forget about the chairs when planning your reception decor. Creative chair treatments like floral wreaths and chic fabrics help spruce up any site for an unforgettable look.

Little Wedding Tips - 結婚小貼士

We have taken some wedding tips found online for you:


音樂篇
如果您的婚禮會有樂隊演奏,如果您又準備讓他們演奏古典音樂,您可以考慮在適當時候例如敬酒或玩遊戲時讓他們轉從古典到現代樂譜,讓您的賓客都能輕鬆盡興。
On Music:
If you’re having instrumentalists perform at your cocktail hour, consider having them switch from classical to contemporary sheet music. You’ll give your guests a treat and get them ready to for the reception festivities when the musicians change from Bach to the Beatles.
From Modern Bride


酒水篇
想酒席埋單時候輕鬆一D?只提供啤酒,紅酒,果汁汽水,或偶爾加一種特色飲品就可以。您也可以選擇較經濟的的白酒和紅酒,多數客人都不會留意。
On Food and Drinks:
Looking to minimize your bar bill? Providing only beer, wine, soda and a signature drink can cut your bill in half, says Los Angeles planner Mindy Weiss. You also can choose off-brand liquors and house wines instead of premium brands. Most guests won’t notice.

婚紗篇 
如果你因為揀婚紗而頭痛,想想那一種室內設計的類型您最喜愛。會否是現代簡約?英國鄉村?法國宮廷?這可能就是你感到最舒適快樂的style。
On Dresses:
If you’re struggling to select a gown style, then think about which interior design movement is most striking to you. Is it graphic modern? English countryside? Eclectic and relaxed? This is likely the look you will be most comfortable and happiest in on the wedding day.
From Elegant Bride


健美篇 
在婚禮前最少一個禮拜,避免鹽和含蘇打水的飲品(汽水),以免出現水腫,亦讓自己覺得苗條及健康一些。
On Fitness and Health:
Avoid salt and soda prior to fittings and for at least a week before your wedding in order to stave off puffiness and feel your most slender. It’s amazing what a difference it makes.
From Elegant Bride


求婚篇 
仲等緊男友的浪漫求婚呢?不妨給他一點提示:向他提起你最喜歡的求婚故事,可以是電影中的情節,或者是您已經結婚的朋友的求婚經歷都可以!
On Engagement:
Still waiting for a romantic proposal? Drop your guy hints about how you would like him to pop the question by mentioning your favorite proposal stories. Talk about scenes in movies that you loved or share your married girlfriends' proposal tales.

It's the touch of your heart - 暖在心頭的感覺

為了令自己更了解婚禮的最新趨勢,我們經常上網搜尋關於婚禮嘅網站。當我們睇得越來越多,我們發現了一些非常好的婚紗照片,想與大家分享。這些圖片不僅是一張張婚禮的紀錄,而是充滿了照片裡面的人的歡笑,淚水和所有的情感的照片。好的相片無須用文字來形容,因為他們不言自明。我相信這是婚紗攝影的意義所在。關鍵在於他們能夠捕捉細緻的一刻。這些相片不僅使新郎和新娘,甚至唔認識他們嘅人,當他們看到這些照片時都能夠感染到他們的喜悅和情感。

隨著情人節和農曆新年的到來,也許是一個好機會去提醒自己,愛你的人正在您身邊。你的父母,朋友,當然還有伴你一生的伴侶。
To get ourselves more informed of the latest trends on wedding and as a habit, we browse online very often looking for websites on wedding. As we read more and more, we had found some very good wedding photos which we really like to share with you. These pictures are not just a documentary about a wedding day, but they really captioned the moment, the laughter, the tears and the all the emotions of the human being inside the photos. It really touches your heart. You don't need words to describe these photos, they speak for themselves. And I think that is what wedding photography is about. It's about capturing the moment, that makes not just the bride and groom, but everyone, even if they don't know them, will feel their joy, their affections when they see the photos.


With the Valentine's Day and the Chinese New Year coming, maybe it's good to remind yourselves that you are being loved by so many people. Your parents, your friends and of course, your loved ones.
