Modern or Traditional?

I would say modern for sure. Getting married in court and doing our wedding ceremony in 6 months to celebrate with family and friends, so definitely not traditional.

Hi Lynnie, this is #3 for my Fiance and I and we are going so off traditional. Doing a " I Do BBQ" and keeping it rustic and very informal. Red & White checked theme and I am wearing a red tea length dress. More to come. Just started planning. Going to check out venues this weekend! Getting excited!~

View Quoted Comment Sounds like something I would do. You're getting married on my daughter's birthday. Congratulations

We are definitely having an "in between" kind of wedding. I wanted to get married in a church and my fiancé wanted a traditional "old fashion" wedding cake, but I refuse to walk down the aisle to the regular wedding march and we are not planning on doing the bouquet or garter tosses.

Modern completely

Completely our own style. Modern I guess? We both don't really care for traditional things. Too many are steeped in sexist and backwards ways, or it's too consumerist.

Going more modern.

Modern is what I’m going for

My youngest daughter and her FH are “old souls” and going very traditional. My oldest went modern while my middle daughter had both modern and traditional elements. I love how unique their weddings are to each of them.

Definitely modern.

A little of both! Some parts traditinal and others more modern! It’s the best of both worlds!

When I first started planning, everything was traditional and looked like what others wanted it to be. However, when I scrapped the idea and went with my heart, I ended up planning in less than 3 months before the actual wedding date.

Traditions we kept:

1. Minister & pre-marital counseling

2. My grandfather gave me away

3. We sent thank you cards via USPS

Traditions we chucked:

1. traditional venue--we had our wedding in a public venue downtown, which was free of charge and gave a beautiful industrial backdrop

2. Boutique dress--I ordered my dress online and it was lace and knee-length. I wore it with grey Mary Janes.

3. Only the bride can wear white--I invited everyone to wear white.

4. Huge reception party--We had an intimate dinner party with our 45 guests and still did the cake cutting, toasts, and provided booze.

Definitely modern!!! I never “dreamed” of my wedding or anything like that... I hate traditions, even the word (ok not to that extreme lol). I want my wedding to be modern.. I don’t even want a veil, or a white dress, or to be walked down the isle, or even go dress shopping, I don’t even want to plan the wedding.. hence why I’m doing a destination wedding, I just want to show up and boom lol. Just enjoy the day with family and members, stress free...

Definitely more modern but we did some traditional things like no first look, we stayed apart the night before. But I didn’t wear a vail, we scratched the garter & bouquet toss. We also had an outdoor afternoon wedding.

Modern (especially the ceremony) with some traditions.

I think when it comes to planning my wedding I'd be considered modern. I feel the wedding should reflect what makes bride and groom happy and it should be planned that way, where as the more tradtional caters more to the family and guests.

Doing mixed spin up like simple ceremony as if it’s court then exchange vows instead along with engagement rings we already have, that’s it. As for invitation, rsvp, settings reception and gifts will be customized as well as videos and photos. I’m keeping tradition by having bridesmaid and groomsmen walked the aisle along with “Ninangs” but no flower girl nor ring bearer. Having a custom setlist to play for ceremony. Already got it all planned out. Think I’m planning to do buffet for reception.

We went traditional

Traditional all the way

We want something special and different
