Keeping this comment here so I can share it with my fiance: - 3:25: Eat when you can, so you can last through the event - 3:53: Plan some face-time with each guest - 4:39: If you love dancing, designate someone to pull you'll onto the floor regularly - 5:14: Pause and take it all in - 6:10: Plan some alone time - 6:54: Pay ahead of time, so you don't have to pay things during the wedding - 8:10: Plan transportation - 9:15: Hire (designate?) a day-of co-ordinator - 10:12: Hair and Make-up - 11:13: Don't worry too much - 11:49: Don't stay too long - 12:39: Be yourself

I went to my cousin's wedding this past weekend and they actually left their reception for a half hour or so. They said they were "taking more pictures" but their photographer was totally not hopping out of that cab with them. Whether they went to go consummate or just have a quiet drink together, I couldn't help but think, "Wow, I really want to do that on my wedding day." They are so in love and spending that little time just to relish in it must have been beautiful.

That's what I like about Jewish weddings. The couples actually have built-in time for them to get away and be alone together. I wish more couples would do this regardless of their faith or beliefs. It's a busy day when they're always "on" for their guests. It gives them some down time to have self care before going back to caring for their guests.

That is actually something I didn't think about and a great suggestion.

My favorite style of receiving line I have seen done is where after the ceremony guests are asked to stay seated. The couple exit and return about 5 minutes later to release and greet guests row by row. All the guests get to sit down while waiting and are then motivated to be quick with their greetings. It takes the pressure off of greeting at reception tables where there is navigating the dress and food, as well as guests not wanting to miss their chance, also means that the couple don't have to rush eating together.

My brother did this at his wedding over the weekend. They exited and then popped back out from a door in the front. Suprise! Then they zigzagged their way back up the aisle, dismissing one half row (one side) at a time starting at the front and gave everyone a hug or handshake greeting as they exited their row. Everyone loved it. The family (first dismissed) all hung around right outside (in the foyer) to speak with guests on their way to the reception space (on the other side of the foyer) and wait until everyone exited the ceremony space to return for photos.

Thanks for sharing that! I actually just posted a question about that! I thought visiting tables would take to long and didn't know if I liked a receiving line. That sounds like a very good option!

Just a note on professional hair/makeup. For my wedding I wasn't able to afford both for all my bridesmaids and I didn't want them to have to pay too much for anything. I hired makeup artists, which was great because everyone has coordinating makeup looks. For hair, I was able to have a family friend do my hair, and I just let everyone else do their own/eachothers hair. I think if you have to choose one, makeup is the way to go! And everyone's hair looked great!

My favorite tip was get some alone time with your husband. My bridal party set up a spot where me and my husband was able to sit right after our wedding to get some quiet time between us. They were so great, the Best Man "stood guard" to make sure we weren't disturbed. :0)

Can you do a video on some of your favorite personal touches to incorporate into a wedding?

I conducted a Facebook poll to see what my friends thought of receiving lines, and the overwhelming response was that they HATED them. So we'll be opting for table visits! This is likely a "know your crowd" kinda thing.

We do both in my country. It is so weird to me to have no receiving line. The bride and groom are the hosts and should be receiving their guests, not having the guests receive them... The same way about visiting tables, at least once during the evening the bride and groom should spend some time with each guest. But I guess it's a cultural thing.

Our cousin had one and it was the most awkward thing ever, but neither of them are extroverted people so them looking uncomfortable made everything just beyond unbearable. We're doing a first look so after some quick family photos we're gonna join in at cocktail hour instead, and then make rounds during the reception to make sure we catch everyone.

@gardenjoy5223

lol. I didn't know there were countries, where they didn't have a receiving line. Where I live it is done a 100% of the time. Completely normal for kisses and congratulations. Also the time, when people give their gifts. We were very pleased, that most of our gifts were envelopes with money in them. In total we got enough to pay for the wedding reception and party. Otherwise we'd been in debt...

The first video I’m watching of you ACTUALLY ENGAGED lol! I am so excited to check out master plan because after our meeting with a wedding planner yesterday I was left in tears about how expensive everything, and specifically her, was. We decided it’s best for our budget just to have day of coordination but that left me saying “how tf do I make a plan for tables and where they go and seating charts” and “when do I book this?” etc etc. I think master plan will help a ton!

We recently decided on no bouquet toss or garter toss!

Love that! I couldn’t decide between a cape or veil or train and ended up going with a tule train so its kind of like a veil! Also my fiance and I are not traditional, but we still sat down and were like “what traditions do we want to include/leave out and why” it was interesting to think “what is the purpose of a cake cutting?” and things like that. It made us feel better about the traditions that we decided to keep and it feels more like our day.

Totally agree with the one about worrying. I wasted time on my wedding day being worried about our choreographed first dance when in reality it went totally fine and people don't care or even notice if it's perfect.

My last video before getting married in 48 hours. Thank you Jamie ❤Some of my personal tips before getting married: -Get a venue where you can BYO and save soo much $$$ -Get the week before the wedding off work to do the final touches that you didn't know you would need to sort - If you're like me, start your tanning, hair, nail trials far in advance. I am a simple girl who does not get any of this in my day to day life - Do not book your honeymoon for the day after your wedding (consider the pack up) - if you cannot afford a MC and/or day of coordinator like me, recruit your trusty sister or someone you trust fully and remember they will be doing A LOT more work than you think - Stand back, you are not going to be as hands on as you think.. otherwise you will not enjoy the day at all! - I was a bridezilla the entire process, i plan on being the most chill bride on the day.. go with the flow Love, bride from Australia x

This video honestly couldn't have come at a better time. I've been so incredibly stressed out with the wedding plans this week. The advice in this video has helped to calm me. I feel like I can breathe again. Thank you!

I’ve been married for 20 years now, so not planning on a wedding, but I love your channel! You’re so awesome and entertaining! Congrats again on your launch! Here’s to you, Boss Lady! 🥂

I love your channel. I would have never even thought about going around all the tables to greet people.

You have such a good personality!! You make me feel good about the decisions I’ve made! Paying “day of coordinator” and “transportation.”

Oh man I needed this course 6 months ago haha my wedding day is in like 20 days!

Thank you Jamie! I was so excited for this video

I love your channel. You are a professional planner but understand not everyone can afford one and you share all your information here without feeling like it is a threat to your business. I’m getting married sometime late next year and want to do it on a relatively small budget (still in the brainstorming not officially engaged stage) and your tips have been amazing. Although there is no way the actual wedding/reception will last 4-5hrs. My limit would be 3 MAYBE 4 hours lol

Thank goodness for your videos. They are helping me bring clarity to the madness of planning my wedding.😃

I’ve been watching this sooooo much I’m still engaged to my amazing fiancée but we’re still trying to plan our wedding down here in Ontario Canada!! When I saw one of your videos for the first time I fell in love with your videos!!! A lot of helpful info!!!

I’ve been a part of many receiving lines and I think it’s a great idea for a wedding! You get to chat with every single person!

Gaahhh, I wish I found your channel BEFORE I got married! Still obsessed with your videos even though I am no longer planning a wedding :)

When i get engaged, I'm definitely gonna get your course! I was sad when I realized you were in cali and couldn't be my planner 😂

Hi! Your advice is so applicable and helpful! One thing I've wondered and tried to think through is all the different options for the bride and groom greeting all the guests. I would like to hear your favorite ways to say hey to everyone while still keeping the day moving and not getting stuck talking with a chatty Cathy for 30 minutes. 😁

I love this video! I am 10 days out and so ready but these videos are always so affirming!’

Is it common in the US to pay vendors at the end of the wedding day itself?? In the UK we settle all bills anywhere from 6 to 1 week before the day! No worries on the day :)

Thank you for your great tips as always💕

Can you please do a tips video on destination weddings?

All your videos have been so helpful, I’ve been binge watching them the last 2 days 🤣 its a little stressful knowing I counted out some things that you recommend, because my budget is Soo strict(I decided I probably couldn’t do professional hair and makeup).. now I’m wondering if I should find out how to fit it in! Since my wedding is outside, I know my hair and face will be faced with the elements Lol. I have already planned moments with my fiancé where we are having moments alone, we are having a last dance.. just the two of us before our official grand exist. It will be on the dance floor and everything but it’s just us two to soak in the whole day and actually be in the moment alone. I hope for other moments during the day but I made sure to include it at the end for sure!

(scrolling through Facebook, see notification for a new video, drop everything I was doing to watch) 😂

Just met this channel today. Thank you for sharing these helpful tips with me.

Hey Jamie, I just went to my friends wedding last night and while it was beautiful and amazing a lot of things went wrong and I know she spent a lot of money 😬 I'm not engaged or even know if I ever want to get married but if I do I don't want to have any regrets or have awkward things happen that my guests will remember lol. Basically what I'm getting at is I'm binging on your videos on my travels home from the wedding 😆

Great advice... especially number 12. I'm getting married in November and not doing a garter toss or a bouquet toss because I just hate the idea of it. I always have. I'm not doing a traditional wedding dress. I love tons of things so i'm having a bunch of different themes because thats just me and my fiancé. A lot of people are like "you can't do that" why not? Definitely do what you want to do

Your kid is sooo precious Jamie 😭❤️❤️❤️❤️ Thank you for these videos. Seriously.. I’m getting married 07.12.25🥰 I’ve taken so many notes, this is insane When I’m actually at the 12 month mark I’ll be purchasing your monthly master plan. I am so freaking excited God bless you love! ❤️

Sadly, I was married and divorced and there is not another wedding in my future, but if there was, your class would be a requirement for me! Sounds great!!

I love that "Marsha" is the one with the mini van!!! 😂😂😂

I love your videos so much even though I’m not a bride. 😂 You’ve inspired me to become a wedding planner & coordinator. But are you also a wedding designer? And can a person be all three?

I'm already doing me. And people aren't liking it, and I'm laughing at them cause it's so funny that they think care about what they have to say when they ain't paying for shit. 😂😂 I'm doing me and me only. My soon to be husband is him and only him, and it's working for us. US, doesn't need to work for everyone else just US!!! Thank you for another helpful video.

Hi Jamie! It would be amazing if you did a video on planning the actual ceremony when using a friend as the efficient. We have no idea where to start! Google is overwhelming with script ideas and makes my head hurt. I'd love to hear your thoughts and any suggestions on resources for secular wedding & unity ceremonies.

loooove you and your videos always

Great tips!

Say 👏🏼 it 👏🏼 louder 👏🏼 You do YOU! Throw tradition out the window!!! Love your encouraging words!!

Can you do a how-to video on your hairstyle in this video please? It's so cute!

❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ love your videos !

Video Idea I would love to see: I think it would be cool if your subscribers that have just been married or married awhile posted their regrets or things they wish they had done at their weddings and you could read them off and comment and/or suggest solutions for all of us planning our weddings. Your videos are seriously so helpful and I think my fiancé thinks I am in a relationship with someone named Jaime because of me saying "well, Jaime made a good point about (fill in the blank)" Haha

I'm the next city over to Pasadena and will make myself available!!

We’re having a first look, 2 hours before the ceremony, then we’re having a lunch with our bridal party where they do our speeches for us haha cos speeches are so boring for everyone else so we are cutting them from the big dinner 😅 cut straight to dancing and dessert!!

My bridesmaid updo was intact through the whole wedding, clean up, and traveling gifts to the bride and grooms house. Also two clothing changes and it took me almost 30 minutes getting all 128 (yes I said 128) pins out of my hair. Did I mention I had shoulder length hair. Lol so worth it to pay for hair and makeup.

I love this video! Very informative. I love the last one of just be yourself! :D

Jamie, I love you and your videos sooo much! We're getting married next summer, kisses from Belgium ***

THANK YOU for mentioning tips on hair and makeup! As a pro artist, I feel like could easily make a video of like "15 things your Bridal Hair and Makeup Artist wish you knew!" Ugh!!

Totally agree with paying in advance! As a vendor, I hate having to ask to be paid on the wedding day. Most couples have the best man pay me but sometimes they forget. The last thing I want to do on someones wedding day is hound them for money. It's so much easier to pay in advance.

For my daughters total bohemian wedding in October we're doing a custom bacon and hoecake bar and grits shooters along with a charcuterie board for cocktail hour and a huge hog roast with upscale "southern" sides for dinner. We're doing a beer canoe instead of kegs so nothing goes to waste and along with the cake we're ordering little fried pies from the Mennonite community. We have about 250 high energy guests and a playlist of all high energy 80s, 90s, and early 2000s songs in hope of a dance reception similar to the end scene in the movie Hitch🤣

Still clicking as fast as I can even though I’m low key married now 😬🤪

I just had my wedding 2weeks ago and one big regret was around had a small venue and so we cleared tables up to make room to dance and people assumed we were cleaning up for good

I know this isn’t wedding related, but I LOVE your dress! Can you please list where you purchased it from? Thank you!

A lot of people I’ve seen recommend getting a ‘Google phone number’ for your wedding so that you can get rid of it after. Just like a wedding email! Plus then there’s no spam mail after😂 and you can give it to your wedding party to use too!

Jamie what do you suggest. Should the wedding party stand from tallest to shortest or opposite? I'm thinking the tallest standing from left to right. Not sure what looks best for photos.

Awww your son is soooo cute!
