Skip the book and have guests sign something that actually matters to you—a snowboard, a guitar, a surfboard, a freaking canoe if that’s your vibe. Whatever it is, you’ll end up with a guest book that doesn’t just sit there, but actually lives with you.

One of my personal favorite wedding ideas…a private last dance after guests have cleared out, this WILL BE the most romantic moment of the night. The party is over, it’s just the two of you, and the weight of the day finally sets in. It’s intimate, emotional, and so worth capturing.

Your first dance should feel like you—not like a wedding playlist on repeat. Sure, classics like At Last and Perfect are beautiful, but if you want a song that feels a little fresher, a little less expected, and still 100% goosebump-worthy, we’ve got you covered.

Picking your venue is a big milestone, but asking the right questions will save you stress (and surprise fees) later. If you’re ready to find the one, book a tour with us at Strathmere and let’s make some magic happen!
