Wedding Music by Decade: Best Picks from the '80s

Each week, we feature music recommendations from Scratch Weddings, the nation's leader with the best wedding DJs at affordable prices. This week's post comes from DJ Chris Mix, Chicago's hometown DJ sensation spinning a wide variety of events and clubs in Chicago, New York, and Las Vegas. Mix's musical skills don't end on the turntables: He's also a pianist, a jazz drummer, plays clarinet and saxophone, and has an encyclopedic musical knowledge. Chris loves to play weddings because it allows him to create the perfect set-list based on the couple's musical taste. "I love being able to play the music that will make your wedding memorable!”

Tip of the Day: This trio design is sweet for a springtime wedding! The groupings on the sides make the taller centerpiece pop and add a chic look to your décor.

How to recreate the look with your florist:

  • Start with a tall collection of lots of different blooms in a pretty glass vase.
  • Then, set two shorter vessels on either side of the taller vase. 
  • In one vessel, select a monochromatic collection of one type of flower found in the larger bunch (the pink roses on the left).
  • The other vessel gets a monochromatic collection of another type of flower in the bunch (like the white carnations on the right).
  • Add sprigs of greenery to extend the floral effect outward even more.

Pet Pointers: How to Include Your Dog

victoria stillwell train your dog positively One of the sweetest things about weddings today is having man’s (and woman’s) best friend take part in the ceremony. Who doesn’t ooh and aah when they spot a furry friend walking down the aisle with tail wagging and looking their wedding best?

But, as fun and photo-op cute as it is, including your pet in the wedding does require some thought, so we asked renowned dog trainer Victoria Stilwell for a few tips. Victoria, best known for her role as the star of Animal Planet’s hit TV series It’s Me or the Dog, is not only CEO of Victoria Stilwell Positively Dog Training but also a best-selling book author. Her most recent, Train Your Dog Positively, will be available on March 19th at stores nationwide and online at amazon.com.

Here, Victoria’s advice on what to consider when having your pet in the wedding:

Etiquette Q&A: "Who Gets a Plus One?"

Editor-in-chief Diane Forden answers one reader's biggest etiquette question.

Q: My fiancé and his family think we should invite everyone to the wedding with a guest. What's the rule?

A: You needn't invite every single person to your wedding with a guest. In fact, most couples today don't —  unless they have an unlimited budget. You should, however, include partners of the following people:

► Everyone who is married (even if you don't know their spouse)
► Couples who are engaged
► Couples who are living together
► Guests who have had a steady significant other for so long that it would seem awkward not to include their partners.

The last instance is a judgment call, but in most cases, your gut will tell you what to do.
