Trend Alert: "Unplugged Weddings"

"Unplugged Weddings" is quite the hot topic for 2013, even Kelly Ripa discussed it this morning!  Couples often ask us how they can avoid their guests from posting photos of their special day right away. We suggest to request, remind or even require that guests go cold turkey on technology during the event.

The trend started about five years ago during the rise of social media, from Facebook, Twitter, Instagram and Pinterest - the list is endless. Celebrities often require the 'no cell phone' rule at their weddings and non-celebrity couples seem to be requesting this policy as well.

Why not have a cellphone coat check?  A place where your guests can leave their phones and visit to check in on voicemails, make necessary calls, etc. Create a lounge area with comfortable seating so if guests need to make calls at least they aren't doing it in the middle of your reception. If you don't feel comfortable asking guests to abandon their phones for the night, putting up the necessary signage stating that this is an "unplugged wedding" and to please turn off your phone and cameras is completely acceptable. However, we cannot guarantee that they will abide by your special request. Some people might frown upon this restraint, but others may thank you for actually being able to take a break from technology for a few hours.
