    What should the parents of the wedding couple wear?

    Collaboration with Villisilkki Picture: Vill Sander There's no strict etiquette for what the parents of the wedding couple should wear but it's most likely a big day for them as well and they also want to look their best. Each participant is expected to follow the dress code, which in most weddings is a suit for men and a nice dress for women. I think there are some classy exceptions that can be made within the dress code, women can also wear a pantsuit if it's dressy enough and men can...

    First day as a married couple

    We woke up to the first day as a married couple from our wedding suite at St George hotel. We were really tired, all the stress, hard work and not enough sleep before the wedding had taken its toll on us and we were exhausted. Luckily we didn't need to do much that day as Eerikki's bestmen went to pick up the wedding decorations from the venue so that we could rest and take in life as wifey and hubby. We got breakfast in bed and I had brought our wedding china there for the breakfast. Eerikki had received his morning gift before the wedding so that he could wear it on the...

On the wedding morning my Maids of Honor and I woke up having stayed the night at the St George hotel. I had slept a bit over five hours so that was pretty good, I had worried that I wouldn't get any sleep at all, after all. I had wanted a room with a view to the Old Church Park...

    The week of our wedding: Day 4

    So here we are, on the last day before the wedding! Our wedding was on a Friday as we had to postpone our wedding from a Saturday in July due to corona and there weren't any Saturdays left for August. We'd had our rehearsal dinner at Brasserie Kämp the night before and we had continued the night from there so we were pretty tired. On the other hand, knowing that it was the last day before the wedding gave us energy to get everything done and I doubt we would've had so much fun if we hadn't been so tired. The wedding team was coming to our place around noon...
