I went to the Conde Nast Bridal Dream House with 2 friends over the weekend. We sat for a lecture by Modern Bride and Elegant Bride’s editor-in-chief, Antonia Van der Meer on how to personalize your wedding, then got wedding flower advice from one of my favorite florists, Michelle Rago, and enjoyed some delicious cake by Ron Ben Israel.

After all the talk on how to make your wedding personal to both you and your fiancé, I was trying to figure out what I should write in today’s post to convey exactly what Toni, Michelle and Ron spoke to us about. And then I received an e-mail from my sister that said it perfectly.

Torey was forwarded a You Tube link of a couple’s “untraditional” first dance. What this couple did was exactly what every couple should do – they let their personalities come through. After starting off with a more traditional slow dance, the couple switched gears and got their party started.
