Organizing a wedding in Poland, Krakow.

More and more relevant are wedding agencies that allow you to concentrate all your efforts on the important things, and everything else will be done by trained people. It is especially convenient to use the services of an agency when the wedding is planned in another city and you do not know any wedding photographer in Poland and Krakow, venues, good restaurants and the specifics of the region.

When choosing an agency pay attention to the portfolio and client reviews. Look how long the agency exists and works. I can tell you the organizers in Krakow.

Self-organizing weddings in Poland and Krakow.

I have collected for you the main points and recommendations that will help you on the right path to imagine what a wedding and what it consists of. In more detail about the organization of the wedding you can read in the articles of the blog, there I have tried to fully cover this topic. And I will also throw you free guides and useful materials for preparing for the wedding, just email me on fb.

Pre-wedding love-story photography.

A great opportunity to get to know your role in front of the camera before your wedding photoshoot. Make even better contact with the photographer, especially relevant for grooms. It is also often an option to see your wedding makeup and hair in the photos. A very enjoyable outcome of such a shoot will be a slideshow to be shown at the banquet. This is a very pleasant and emotional moment of the program of the evening.

The bride’s wedding dress and the groom’s suit.

Don’t buy the dress too far in advance, everyone is affected differently by the preparation, some lose weight and some gain weight. Consult with the salon when you should have your final fitting so you have time to make adjustments to the dress.

Think about which dress will fit the style of your wedding. Also, the dress determines which venues on the wedding walk will look harmonious and appropriate. Not every dress can go into the woods or climb the cliff.

Not unimportant is the color of the dress. The main thing is that it did not give away the blue, it looks very lose on the wedding photos. If you settled on a «white» dress, pay attention to the color Ivory.

The suit for the groom’s image is no less important item. The fitted jackets look more advantageous. Choose a fabric that does not shine in the sun. Very cool looks a mixture of textures, for example, a jacket with an unobtrusive checkered pattern and solid-colored pants. If the wedding is in hot summer, consider the option without the jacket. The boutonniere is attached to the lapel, it is not inserted into a jacket pocket and is not attached to a shirt or suspenders.

In the summer heat it is especially hot in Poland, so choose natural fabrics, in which the body will be able to breathe. You can also have a second shirt in stock; it will be useful to change it before the dressing ceremony or banquet.

The morning of the bride, the gathering.

I think morning is a very important time because it’s where the mood starts, it’s where the whole story of the wedding day begins. The wedding stylist works on the transformation of the bride, the wedding photographer starts the story of your celebration. And it’s important that this take place in an appropriate environment, as the morning begins, so the whole day will pass.

So give yourself a calm, beautiful gathering in your hotel room, with a beautiful interior, a view out the window, cleanliness around you. This environment, in fact, will charge you with positive emotions and the best effect on the wedding photosession.

Wedding Day.

It is a very positive practice to organize your entire wedding day at the same venue. It allows you to have much more time, diversify the day and spend a lot less energy. I also wrote about this in my articles on organizing weddings, the link will be below. However, let’s consider another option when this option is not suitable or there is another wedding day scenario.

Wedding photoshoot and walk.

The main time to create thoughtful, desirable dynamic and staged photos that will then delight you and your children for a long time. It is important to choose a comfortable time for the photo session at the chosen locations, especially in the hot summer time.

If it is a park or apartment, you can start early, you will be comfortable in the shade. Later, when the sun moves from the zenith, you can go to open locations and diversify the shooting with new views. Detailed timing by location is always discussed with the photographer, he will help and advise you by experience how to do better to squeeze the maximum out of the available time.

Choosing a site for the wedding ceremony.

The complexity of this event depends on the setting. In any case, I advise you to contact an agency. They already have this process honed, have a good base of venues, established contacts and a set of actions. The catch is the desired site, not every site you will find access and contacts.

The offsite ceremony can include accompanying entertainment and activities. It could be a photo area, a buffet with drinks and snacks. A caricaturist or mime can be called in to delight guests, or live sound can be invited. This option is relevant if the place of ceremony is directly near the banquet hall. Then the decor can be used in the hall and the photo area can be used throughout the evening.

The optimum time of carrying out of exit ceremony in Krakow: in the spring 16:00 — 17:00, in the summer 18:00 — 19:00, in the autumn 17:00 — 18:00.

Wedding Banquet.

Hall, menu, host, sound and light. Basic elements of the entire banquet. Match the hall to the style of your wedding, then have to order less decor. When arranging the tables take into account the convenience of movement of guests, staff, photographer and videographer. Do not order too much food. In my practice, 15−20% is definitely left by the end of the evening. The wedding host is the key to the success of the whole evening, the right atmosphere and the emotions of the guests.

Negotiate the program of the presenter and optimize it for the age categories of guests. Lighting equipment is very influential on the emotional component, it complements the atmosphere and can affect the mood, calm or «shake up» the guests.

Dilute the program presenter can prepare prepared surprises honeymooners. Today, the choice of show programs is very large. Magicians, sand show, soap bubbles, cover bands, dance numbers, bartender show, fire show and much more.

In preparing for a wedding, the most important thing is to have everything in time, and to do that, you have to bookmark an «extra» month of preparation. I have guides for you to help with your wedding, email me and I’ll send them to you.
