Posted byLast year, we addressed the trend of “Unplugged Weddings,” where couples ask their guests to put down their cameras. We even gave you some examples of how to word your request.
Well, a year later, we're starting to see more and more couples choosing to unplug their weddings. New York's Ryan Brenizer Photography recently posted this photo of a wedding program on Facebook, with the caption, “I saw this in the wedding program yesterday. Fantastic.” Looks like this couple (Andrea and Richard) read Offbeat Bride — we recognize our wording template! Hopefully we'll see more from their wedding soon.
The response has been, uh, dramatic with people desperately chiming in on whether this is rude/tacky (yawn!) or brilliant. We had that debate last year, so we'll just say that we love it when couples feel empowered to speak up and create the ceremonial space they need to make their wedding day feel right for them.
(Thanks to Jessie from Eclectic Unions for cluing us into the fact that this was going viral on Facebook!)
