The tradition of bridesmaids is believed to have originated from a custom where the bride was surrounded by richly dressed women to confuse evil spirits. The tradition of the garter toss arose when brides, in order to avoid serious injury, began throwing their highly coveted undergarments to rushing, frenzied mobs. As certified etiquette specialists, we have learned the rich history behind wedding protocols. While this expertise allows us to honor tradition, it also equips us with the know-how to tastefully adapt or forego it for modern sensibilities. For Daria and Blake, we eschewed cookie-cutter wedding elements at every turn, but ensured thoughtful hospitality for guests was never compromised. Rather than being checklist custodians, we are trusted advisors, always learning as much as we can to offer our clients tailored planning.
