As wedding planning keeps progressing, one of the things
that my fiancé and I have “struggled’
with is how to host the perfect night and entertain guests while keeping
this wedding about our personalities. Because, well yeah, it’s
OUR wedding after all!
Music is such an important
part of the celebration. We don't have a huge group of people attending but mostly are coming from Colombia. Our wedding will be a melting pot of cultures: from Cali
girls, to family and friends from Bogotá, to Dominican guys, and even some
Venezuelans sprinkled in. Don’t get me wrong, I love having friends and family from different
backgrounds, cities, etc. but narrowing down the song list
for the night can be challenging since we
want everyone to have fun.
And not only
music is important, but
comfy shoes are key to create an
awesome vibe.
Not to mention, weirdos like me who are from Colombia, but
well, don’t necessarily enjoy Colombian music
all night long… so yeah it gets tricky. As a Latina who partially grew up in
the states I became very acculturated. But, I do have hints of my Colombian
heritage and I enjoy a vallenato here and there. Plus, weddings in Colombia last all night
into the early morning. So you can see why this
is important to me!
