Say YES! to Wedding Etiquette!

To post or not to post....that is the question!
Via thesocial.ca

Wedding Etiquette, aka Weddiquette is always a topic of contention. I blame the need to constantly define what is socially acceptable/unacceptable on life in the year 2016 and in the Age of Social Media; we are social creature but through our phones and apps. When mom and dad are Instagram and Twitter, real life away from the 'rents has become a little skewered.  Add in our worship at the church of celebrity and you got the potential to run into a lot of star culture/real people confusion. Case in point: BeyoncĂ© and Blue Ivy decked out in white at a wedding last year, pictures splashed across the Internet and giving everyday brides who want their wedding dresses to be the only white dresses in room a much weaker case.  So it just seemed fitting that as we head into prime-time wedding season that we bone up on some common wedding issues that might crop up in the next few months, and what better way than with Etiquette expert Lisa Orr who delivered some wedding etiquette gold on 'The Social' last week!

We've dipped our toe into the fashion waters from last night's GG awards, but what about the hottest faces of the night? Luckily, The Social did a segment today featuring a collection of beauty products to help usachieve some of the highlights from the carpet, including a great Urban Decay Naked Smokey dupe palette by Annabelle, the statement Red Lip (a lip look deserving of respect and capitalization!) and the lowdown in strobing to give you a glow like no other!

Hot Wedding Accessories for the Season!

Image Courtesy of CTV’s The Social
This past weekend, on a scorching Saturday in May  (goodbye winter and hello HUMIDEX WATCH 2015!) with the threat of insane weather looming in the not-so-distant skies (seriously, at one point there was a ‘severe thunderstorm watch’ in effect, which also ominously called for heavy rains, strong winds and possible hail)  Limitless Events welcomed in the Spring wedding season - congrats Jann and Nick! You guys not only survived the heat and foreboding weather forecast but were a lovely couple who hosted a fantastic wedding for your family and friends! All the best today, tomorrow, and always…..
Last week on The Social,  resident fashion expert (and soon-to-be Bride) Erica Wark had a great segment on some smokin’-hot wedding accessories for the upcoming season and I was remiss in not posting them right away because they are definitely swoon-worthy!

Maybe  because it’s been such a long, dreary winter and spring has reared her beautiful and promising head, but I found everything so fresh and inviting.  Delicate, drape-y, bohemian-inspired headpieces? Yes, please!  A decadent fascinator-esque bloom that can be perched jauntily? Amazing!! Art-deco inspired clutches? We’re in!!!
Speaking of smokin’-hot – what about the men?  A man in a good suit is a beautiful thing but just what constitutes a ‘good suit’ changes with the seasons and just as bridal and wedding guest attire is continually offering new options and looks, men’s wedding day fashion is updating all the time too! Here was a segment on The Social a few weeks ago that showed the newest in new looks for men:
And things are just heating up! Wedding season is on and with that, we’re in for a fashionable, exciting ride! Make sure you visit us often and if you’ve got some wedding festivities lined up in the next little while - smile and BREATHE! You’re almost there and it’s going to be just fine!  Enjoy the lead-up to your special day!!

Introductions and a Modern Refresher on Etiquette

Hello Lovely People!
We are Limitless Events and we’re thrilled you’re stopping by! For 2015, we’re kicking off the year with a new website and a shiny new blog to go with it so please drop by often! We’ll be blogging about all things Wedding – cool new trends, pictures to make you swoon, decor ideas and themes, anything really! – so make sure you bookmark us and visit frequently. We look forward to sharing what grabs us, inspires us, amuses us and enlightens us with you!
For our inaugural post we wanted to share something that aired last week on CTV's daytime talk show "The Social". The show is broadcast daily Monday to Friday, and features informative segments that cover the bases from fashion, beauty, health, finance, food and drink, celebrity gossip all the way to delving into current news events, lively discussion and debate. And that's not even taking into account the people who stop by to chat with the ladies, guests that run the gamut from Eugenie Bouchard to Lena Dunham to Justin Trudeau. Last Friday, they interviewed Bettie Bradley, a seasoned wedding expert who answered some timely questions about wedding etiquette.
As time goes on and wedding ideals evolve and new ideas take shape, the rules of the game find themselves subject to revision or change. But this interview was a good reminder that even though trends come and go and then make way for the next big things, good wedding etiquette never goes out of style. Take a look, and don't forget to catch "The Social" for more good stuff like this!
