Being a driver is crazy exciting and satisfaction after a successful day is guaranteed. This is definitely the new couple a special declaration of trust, an affirmation of friendship, and equally a request for help. After the ceremony the newlyweds should be given some time to get used to their new status as husband and wife. And it's usually a chore for carriers – to "take them away " to a group of relatives and friends. Take them away from attention, away from celebrations, in return for the prepared surprises.

Ushers play an invaluable role on the wedding day - to remind, hang up, take with you, call, unpin I would pull back a lock of hair, keep flowers, translate and, of course, surprise.  The baggage of giant ideas must be sorted by for various parameters – finances, distances, time, people involved, etc.  This time for the moment of that big day, when the word YES has already been said.

No matter what the surprise is - big or small, it is important that it is personal for the new husband and wife.

You, presenters, with each surprise will create memories of a day that will be celebrated once a year, for a lifetime.  And it is possible that the presenters will be the ones who will bring to life a tradition that may repeat itself every year.

1. LETTERS

Take the young couple to some romantic place. It can be the place where they met, the place where it happened a proposal or some other important event in their life. Let them write each other a letter. Maybe give ideas such as 3 dreams/wishes that could come true in the next three years.

Or simply a wedding day feeling letter. This letter is taped and handed over to the carriers, who exactly one year later hand over/send to the newlyweds (you must bring beautiful paper, an envelope, a stamp, stationery that can contain engraved words, you can think about ordering a stamp of the new family, which is printed on the written letters and presents.} This letter-writing tradition may repeat itself every year.

2nd PHOTO SESSION

You choose one of the photographers you know, love, recommended by friends, loved by the community and give as a gift photo shoot. Of course, the goat photographer has been arranged for a long time, but I also recommend using a professional photo studio, where can take a nap. (You can also take beads, hats, masks - any attributes for funny pictures.)

FLIGHT 3

There is an opportunity to arrange a pilot who will not only fly you, the young couple and the guides, but also tell you how the plane is being driven and you may be able to spread your first wings in piloting an airplane, just like in driving school. Flight in such a small, close and wonderful company will provide unforgettable memories.

4. PREDICTION OF FATE

Talk to a fortune teller, astrologer, medicine witch, magician who will add a little mysticism to this day, read the hand lines and will give advice on what to keep in your home alchemy lab, love, passion and for trust. Maybe there is even a chance to brew a magic potion together.

5. PERFUMES

Go to an aroma studio to create your own special scent. Fragrances for the house or for yourself.

6. PLANTS

Plant a tree or shrub that you can care for and see grow. If, after the wedding, the young couple has the idea of ​​living in a private house, then go together to a plant shop, choose marigolds, lavender, rhododendrons, anything that grows will remind you of the wedding (you must prepare everything for the transfer of plants).

7. WINE

Dig a bottle of wine in the ground. In a year, you will be able to leave the house and dig it up again to sip and immerse yourself in memories. It can continue every year and change location. One year in Kurzeme by the sea, another year already in Latgale. On the part of the presenters, the gift could include a specially prepared bottle label.

SONG 8

Arrange a music recording studio and give the gift of the joy of singing your favorite song.

9. LAUNAG BREAK

You certainly have a lot of creative ideas and know beautiful places where, as if without noticing, as if unintentionally, as if by chance, a colorful table was set. FROM experience: when I was a host myself, I arranged for my secret assistants to set the table in the Turaida Museum Reserve. We took the newlyweds, as if you were walking to a museum, and as if at the command of a pike, the wind flutters tablecloth, glasses, cold champagne, cupcakes and other treats. A wonderfully designed table. When we took them here comes a guy with a guitar and plays their song. The bride even admitted that she had looked with white envy to the table and thought: "What a beauty!" It turns out a surprise for them.

Leaders, create the magic of the moment!

10. NATIONAL COSTUME

You visit a weaver, where you either order or weave the first patterns for your belt yourself at the loom or villain. Now the Latvian way of life is reborn. Weave your own family symbol that can be passed on to the next generation for generations.

11. RITUALS OF LOVE

Love is both mystery and divinity at the same time. The experience of the male and female soul. Love is emanation of life energy. The basic law of humanity. Both on the wedding day and on wedding anniversaries there is an opportunity to strengthen and renew your love. Take the husband and wife to nature, where they can be together again in an intimate atmosphere will prove their trust, the importance of being together. It is also possible to order such a special ritual.

12. WRITE

Throughout the day, write down wishes, curiosities. As close friends, you surely know the couple's favorite poem, aphorism, essay, saying. After the goats, put them together in a book or calendar format that can be supplemented with for photographs. You choose a cover design and take it to print. A wonderful gift to give when meet after the wedding to look at photos together.

The main thing is to let the day go and don't saturate these few hours so that you don't get tired and bored, prepare several things and then, based on feelings, postpone or choose the most important with what to please and surprise. Small things, big things, the most important thing is warmth and peace with someone will fulfill!

Let the joy multiply!
