It’s the day you've dreamed about since you were a little
girl. You already knew what kind of cake you wanted to serve, the color of the
bridesmaids’ dresses and the type of wedding dress you wanted to wear. And now
you've found the perfect groom. But what does he want from what’s a pretty big
day for him, too?
Sure, guys are rarely as invested in the tiny details of the
wedding. The differences between aqua, teal and sea foam blue are lost on most
of them. But that doesn't mean they don’t have input on what you’re planning.
And while you may be focused on the details that are important to you, there’s
a whole set of things that are important to him.
Music: Make sure you both sit with the band or DJ to pick out
your favorite reception tunes. That song from 1998 that you love? May just have
some not-so-favorable memories for him. And his favorite jam might just be that
song you never want to hear again. Better to eliminate those songs before you
hit the dance floor.
Food: Have him make sure he knows of any special allergy or
food requests from his side of the family. You won’t know that his great-aunt
Gertrude can’t eat salmon, but he might.
Wedding weekend events: A full-service resort like the
Heritage can offer you and your bridesmaids the best in pampering in our day
spa. But he deserves stress-relievers, too. Plan a whiskey tasting at our pub,
Shadrach's, or let the guys go blow of some steam at our golf course. It’s a
great chance for the men from both sides of the family to get to know each
other better, and he won’t begrudge your mani-pedi time.
It’s an important day for both of you, so make sure he gets
to feel special, too.
