Advice on Picking the Perfect Wedding Venue

5/8/2018

 
Picture
Picture
​Every couple wants to create the ideal ambiance for their wedding. Choosing the perfect venue for your wedding and reception is all about location and your personal preferences. Your venue should complement the theme of your wedding and speak to your love story, faith or maybe even your passions.
 
Some religions state that the couple should get married in their place of worship. So religion may be the main driving force in choosing your wedding venue. But even if you plan to say “I Do” in a place of worship, your reception venue can be somewhere unique.
​
Couples who are open to alternative settings for their vow exchange can and should think about unique venues like museums, parks, botanical gardens or even the beach (if you’re on the coast). Think about how the venue will photograph, and how the location will look as a backdrop.
Of course, you also need to consider the guest list. Is the location easily accessible for guests?
What about parking?
And public restrooms?

When looking at alternative locations, couples should take all aspects of the venue or site into account. As for choosing the reception venue, an entirely unique location may be selected. While some couples exchange vows and hold their reception at the same location, others choose to have their after-party elsewhere.

​Here are a few tips to decide how to choose the ideal locations for the vow exchange and the reception:


Make sure the locations are close.

If you’re getting married on the beach, consider reception venues that are nearby.

​Look at hotels, restaurants or other sites for guests to gather after the vow exchange. Some hotels on the beach also offer all-inclusive wedding packages. So you can have your ceremony near the water and the reception indoors…or even on the patio!
Picture
Picture
Picture

Budget is everything.Before you even begin looking for the perfect wedding site, you need to understand your financial bottom line. 

That beautiful cathedral might charge more than you can afford, but your local family church may allow you to host your wedding ceremony for a nominal fee if you’re a member.

​The money bottom line also speaks to your reception venue. Yes, that grand resort may seem like the picturesque place to host your guests, but you cannot spend the entire budget on just the reception!


Ask about the site rules and regulations.
Some venues may require you to use their on-site catering or may stipulate what you can or cannot bring on site. Ask about any rules and constraints...you may even want to inquire about any limitations on décor.

​If the venue is a closed space, and you’re an allergy sufferer, you also may want to make sure your florist steers clear of 
flowers that aggravate allergies (like daisies or sunflowers).
​Check the reviews.
If you’re not planning to marry in a house of worship, and you’re looking for a unique venue, always check the reviews before committing or forking over a down-payment. Read all the reviews and then tour the location.


Ask for recommendations.
If you hired a wedding planner, don’t be shy about asking for site recommendations. 
Talk to your planner about your personal preferences and be open about your budget; your planner likely will have some great suggestions.

Think about a home-based ceremony.
​If your budget is tight, you could consider hosting the ceremony in your backyard. Or in the backyard of your parents’ house. You’ll need to be sure that the space can accommodate your guest list, however.
Picture
Picture
Choosing the right wedding venue is all about finding the destination that strikes the right note. Your ceremony location should speak to your story, personality and even your passions. If the two of you love the outdoors, consider hosting your nuptials at a park or on the beach. Some museums and historic sites also may be open for wedding events. Know your budget before exploring sites, and always read reviews of venues before committing. No matter where you plan your big day, just remember that the vows matter most…not the location.

Where to Dine on Valentine's Day in Loveland - 2018

2/8/2018

 
Picture
We are already 9 days into February, so your lead time on making an romantic Valentine’s Day plans for you and your sweets is dwindling quickly!
Don’t worry, we at My Big Day have done the research and leg-work for you and have found some wonderfully romantic ideas for you to consider:
Picture
Door 222 food+drink
Celebrated as a delectable dining experience by Feasting Fort Collins, Door 222 offers hand-crafted tapas, dinners, and desserts in an upscale atmosphere in downtown Loveland.  This year, in honor of the Sweetheart City’s holiday of Love, Door 222 is presenting a Valentine’s Day, 3-courses of Love.  This special meal is $40 per guest with an optional wine pairing for an additional $15.  The 3 course special will include a first course with your choice of New England Clam Chowder Soup, Steak Tartare, or a Spinach Salad.  The second course includes choices of Braised Beef Short Ribs, Seared Scallops, or a locally crafted Mushroom Risotto.  The third course includes a variety of desserts for you and your date to choose from.

Sounds like a tasty option for anyone out on the town on Valentine’s night!
Picture
Starlight Dessert Bar
One of our local favorite spots is the Starlight Dessert bar – Loveland’s Sweetest Spot!  Known for their enticing desserts and tasty displays, Starlight will be offering a special Valentine’s Dinner this year on the holiday of Love!  Parties of 2 can enjoy a 4 course meal for $38, or add some wine for a total of $66!  The evening includes appetizer choices, a Strawberry Spinach Salad, three choices for your main dish – including stuffed chicken breasts or Beef Tenderloin in Red Wine Sauce served with roasted asparagus and parmesan risotto.  And of course, there will be DESSERT!  Starlight will be offering a delicious Raspberry Chocolate Blitz to their Valentine’s diners.
If you can’t make if for a dinner reservation, don’t forget that they have specialty treats and gifts for your Valentine as well – you can purchase a 12” Heart Message Cookie for your love!
Picture
Mo’ Betta Gumbo
If you are after a more relaxed and “down home” kind of vibe for your Valentine’s celebration, you should consider making reservations at Mo’Betta Gumbo.  They bring a taste of the Southern Bayou to Northern Colorado in the best way!  They have an extensive menu full of the Flavors of the South, including hush puppies, Chicken Gumbo, Po’ Boys, and Crawfish Etouffee!  They also have an extensive bar stocked with specialized Moonshine Flavors and Mixers, as well as a variety of Mules and signature drinks.

You will want to make sure to stop by for an after dinner drink and some Beignets at the very least!!
Picture
We hope that these options inspire you to get your plan on now!  You don’t want to have a Blue Valentine due to poor planning!

And just in case you want to take the leap and say vows with your Love or renew the ones you’ve said before, you can plan to attend our Valentine’s Day Group Wedding and Vow Renewal Ceremony before your dinner reservations!  

Check out the event details here:  
http://www.valentinesdayinloveland.com/
This event is based in Loveland, CO but serves all of Colorado and surrounding states. While the majority of our guests come from Northern Colorado and Denver, we have had wedding couples join us from NE, WY, MS,  and MO!  Celebrate Valentine's Day in the most unique way with us!

Site Visit Review: Ginger and Baker

12/18/2017

 
Sugar, Butter, Flour……….baking from the heart!  

In the musical, Waitress, the protagonist, Jenna, expresses her hopes, dreams, and fears through the whimsically named pies she creates and bakes each morning.  Like Jenna, the owners and lovely people at the newest Downtown Fort Collins attraction, Ginger and Baker, had dreams of their own - specifically of opening a little pie shop where people could gather in fellowship and with food.  They put their hopes and dreams to work, and their vision expanded from pies to much, much more.  


Picture
The My Big Day team had the opportunity to take a private tour of the amazing new facility, and let’s just say we were blown away.  
The love, details, and innovation that went into the remodel of the Old Feeders Supply Company building, a staple of downtown Fort Collins since 1905, was apparent the moment we walked in.  The coffee and bake shop were full of wonderful scents and cozy decor. The new building additions of the The Cache restaurant and patios offered a nice modern flare to the historic landmark, blending the past with the present and future.  No detail in design was overlooked, making the entire facility a site to see!


Picture
Picture
Picture
Our tour took us through all seven of Ginger and Baker’s unique spots: The Market & Bakery, The Cafe, The Teaching Kitchen, both levels of The Cache Restaurant, The Rooftop Bar, and two separate special event spaces - one upstairs in the old building, and a beautiful wine cellar below.  All of our planners were giddy with all of the future event possibilities that Ginger and Baker could hold!  
Picture
Picture
Picture
There is event space for small groups such as book clubs, date nights, and small corporate functions, as well as larger spaces for holiday parties and receptions.  We were so impressed and excited, we booked a reservation on the spot for our upcoming team Christmas party!
Picture
Picture
We couldn’t be more thrilled to promote this gem of an entertainment spot, and cannot wait to see the impact that this “little slice of heaven” has in Northern Colorado!

Make Your Wedding Creative, Original & Unique with a CUSTOM Song Made for YOU!

12/5/2017

 
Picture
We LOVE love here at My Big Day and we LOVE everything about weddings. Often when interviewing couples we ask them to describe their vision for the day and what they are most looking forward to. Most everyone wants their day to be original, unique, and memorable!

We've worked with a gal who can give couples that original and memorable element you are looking for on your Big Day.

Meet our friend, Sharon Glassman!

Picture
Colorado weddings are beautifully unique. My name is Sharon Glassman. I create custom wedding songs that celebrate your Big Day in a uniquely personal way.
 
My happy, original love songs have a Colorado acoustic sound that pairs beautifully with the setting and your special wedding day.
I call my songs Smile Songs because the music, lyrics and mood of each song makes folks smile. (And cry happy tears sometimes, too.)
Here’s how I create your custom wedding song:

   1     We chat in a friendly, easy way, about your life, your love story, your wedding plans. Your dreams. Anything you’d like to share and celebrate! How you met, where you got engaged. Your dog’s name. Favorite pizza. Mountain. Or flower. Sentimental is great. Serious rocks. Silly’s great, too. It’s all about you.
 
   2     Next? I write an original acoustic song that celebrates moments. Words. Images you’re shared.
 
          Instrumentation can be pure and simple as me and my guitar. I can also add mandolin, fiddle, bass and harmony vocals.
 
   3     Then: I record your song for you and deliver it as a high quality mp3. You can add it to your DJs set list. Play it during your wedding ceremony. Or first dance.

I also design personalized Smile Songs wedding song posters and art print. They play your song when you scan the QR code in the design! Great event artwork and to enjoy at home.
 
          Here are some of my love songs and singing poster designs. I’d love to work with you to create a unique, custom wedding song that sings to your heart and ears.

"Shiny & Sparkly Fall BBQ Wedding in Loveland"

9/21/2017

 
Fall weddings have always been a favorite of ours and My Big Day, and Nicole & Tyler’s beautiful fall ranch wedding was no exception!
Picture
Picture
Picture
Picture
Hosted by the fine folks of Ellis Ranch outside of Loveland, Nicole and Tyler crafted the perfect celebration of love that merged her love of all things shiny and sparkly and his love of BBQ and the Broncos! There were special touches throughout the event, from shining votives on the dinner tables, to pops of orange and blue in the wedding bouquets and floral arrangements.
Picture
Picture
Picture
Following a beautiful gazebo ceremony, guests were treated to an open bar, staffed by the talented Ellis Ranch crew, and appetizers provided by Nicole’s Father and Step-Mother.  After the wedding party concluded their after-ceremony photos, the entire party moved into the dining area where Hog Wild BBQ was served, complete with brisket, shredded pork, chicken, and peach cobbler!

An Exquisite Italian Summer Wedding

9/4/2017

 
Picture
My Big Day clients, Brittany and Eric, are a sweet couple with strong roots in Northern Colorado who hold a strong love for each other, family, travel, and fun!  It was only fitting that the celebration of their marriage combined the love and support of their “close to home” families and friends with a “global flair”!
Picture
Picture
The couple was actually married in a beautiful ceremony in Italy in early August.  They chose Italy because Eric’s Mother is of Italian descent, and there was a long generational tradition of being married in a particular Italian church, graced with Frescas painted by world famous artist, Donatello.
Picture
Picture
Picture

After traveling with family to celebrate their marriage in beautiful Italy, the couple continued the celebration of their love in a reception set on Brittany’s parents’ Timnath property.  The location was simply stunning with mountain vistas to the west, fields and grasslands to the east, and a gem of a newly constructed barn in the middle that housed the cocktail reception kick off.
Picture
The celebration started with cocktails and a delightful anti-pasta spread - catered by 3 Tomatoes from Denver in the gorgeous barn.  This barn was not your typical farm barn.  This barn - or, house, was constructed with rich finishes and beautiful accessories, and included a full service French-Country kitchen and Horseshoe Shaped Bar that could sit up to 15 people at a time!  Guests were treated to delicious food and drink, and mingled with Brittany, Eric, and their families.
Picture
Picture
Picture
After cocktail hour, the party moved to an expansive tent, decorated with gorgeous chandeliers, drapery, lights and stunning table decor - provided by Palmer Flowers of Fort Collins.  Guests enjoyed more delicious food provided once again by 3 Tomatoes - luscious salads, roasted veggies, Ratatouille pasta, Lemon Glazed Chicken, and freshly sliced Prime Rib.  Spirits were served table to table and at two beautifully decorated bars, located just outside of the tent.  
Picture
Picture
Picture
Picture
There were heartfelt toasts and dancing to live music provided by the Diamond Empire Band.  Brittany, Eric, and all of their guests celebrated in beautiful style all evening long!
Picture
This gorgeous event wouldn’t have been possible without the detailed vision provided by WhiteTine Interiors, Brittany and her mother, Renee.  Eric and Brittany’s personalities were highlighted in all the special details, from photos fresh from their Italian dream wedding, to the little touches of Italy and all of their world travels, in the selections of food and other decor.
Picture
Picture
My Big Day was honored to be part of this wonderful celebration of love!  We love working with our clients and other vendors to create memorable events, encouraging all to Dream Big and Live Big - For Life’s Events!
