Get Out Your Dancin’ Shoes!
June 22, 2010 | Filed Under Uncategorized | Leave a Comment
What’s better than dancin’ a jig to live music at a fabulous party? When it comes to your wedding reception, you want to be the hit of the year. Your guests are looking their best and ready to celebrate the beginning of the next step of your life!
We asked our favorite and highly recommended wedding and music industry professionals for a few tips to pass along to couples planning their wedding. Here’s what the experts have to say:
- Look for personality and friendliness among the members and how they interact with an audience ~ are you comfortable talking with them? Do they spend time meeting with you? It’s important to develop a relationship with the band so they get to know you. This will ease your stress about one important element on your big day.
- Look for universal appeal ~ you want all your guests to like the band; they make the party. Find a group that can play a little bit of everything and is versatile enough to please your parents and your friends. Look for music that spans generations and will get everyone moving!
- Live music is energetic, entertaining, and contagious! A band can customize and personalize their performance for your function. Music is an integral part of your wedding day and you want a band that LOVES what they do because their enthusiasm will be reflected in a positive way at your wedding.
- A good band will learn a song or two just for your event. Discuss whether or not the band knows the songs you may want for your special dances, dedications, or for the party after dinner.
Using the expert advice provided by our recommended wedding professionals in addition to the interview questions located in your Workbook will ensure you choose the perfect music and entertainment for your reception!

Going Green: What’s the Hype About Digital Photography?
April 6, 2010 | Filed Under Uncategorized | 1 Comment
Many photographers have made the switch to digital photography over the last several years bringing a new trend that has proven advantageous for couples planning a wedding, as well as doing our part to preserve our ever-precious planet. What was so un-green about photography?
One photographer estimated that, over the course of nine years, their team of two photographers has saved the earth from approximately 18,750 rolls of film, 4,687 AA batteries, 1,578 camera batteries, and 4,468 gallons of toxic and corrosive chemicals used to process film.
By cutting down on processing chemicals, using rechargeable batteries, and doing without rolls of film, many of the best photographers have made going green great for our earth, as well as couples concerned with the environment and the product quality from their artistic professionals. The experts all seem to agree that there is virtually no difference when using digital photography instead of traditional methods. Photographers who keep on top of their industry are typically much more concerned with educating themselves and producing a superior product.
Bridal Networks is a big supporter of considering our planet when choosing your photographer, but we also want you to remember the basics: match a photographer’s style to your tastes. While you want to stay within your budget, you don’t want to sacrifice your captured memories for mediocre impressions of your wedding.
Make sure to ask questions during your interview that will give you insight into the photographer’s motivation, product, and equipment. For important and necessary questions, bring our workbook to the interview! Being mindful of the environment is another way to add significance and beauty to your wedding!
