More Quality Time on Your Wedding Day
A wonderful way to enjoy more time as a couple during the reception is the Sweetheart Table.
Instead of sitting at a long head table with the wedding party, the two of you sit at a small private table just for yourselves.
This allows you to:
- focus on each other
- talk about the day so far
- actually eat your dinner in peace
And yet, you are still surrounded by all your loved ones.
The First Look has become increasingly popular — and for good reason.
You meet before the ceremony for an intimate, emotional moment.
Benefits:
- It calms your nerves
- You get beautiful photos
- You share one of the most meaningful moments of the day privately
The surprise remains: the groom stands with his back turned and then turns around when ready.
As the party comes to an end and your guests leave, a private last dance is a truly magical moment.
You choose a meaningful song and dance alone in your wedding venue — just the two of you.
It’s a heartfelt, intimate way to close the day and soak up all the emotions.
During the party, sneak away for a few minutes — just the two of you.
This could be a garden, a quiet corner, or anywhere slightly removed from the crowd.
You can:
- breathe for a moment
- watch your own celebration from afar
- reconnect and share impressions
These small pauses feel incredibly grounding.
Schedule 15–20 minutes during the cocktail hour or reception for a private toast.
Create a small area slightly away from the guests where you can celebrate the moment together.
A glass of champagne, a quiet moment, and the reminder:
“This day is about us.”
It’s entirely up to you how you include these moments — but if quality time is a priority, make sure to plan it intentionally.
Wedding days are fast, full, emotional — without structured “us-time,” it often gets lost.
