In organizing a wedding, we can attract the best industry professionals, rent the most luxurious decorations or hire the best evening manager, but there is one thing we are responsible for at the wedding, namely the emotional mood.  Why is it that at some weddings we feel this mood that makes our eyes water, but at others we experience a slightly chilly atmosphere? After all, what makes a wedding emotional and one that guests would say "it was the most beautiful wedding they've ever been to"?

Self-written wedding vows

One of the most emotional moments at a wedding is, of course, the marriage ceremony. However, they can also differ. Most likely, if the couple has written their own special vows to each other, it will be much more emotional than a poem read by the head of the registry office.

People like real love, they are ready to shed more than one tear because of it, therefore one of the keys to an emotional wedding is definitely words spoken from the heart.

"The fact that we wrote the vows ourselves made the ceremony especially heartfelt. It's not easy to write them, but the end result is worth it," admits the bride Vinita, who got married this summer.

On the other hand, the bride Katrina shared valuable advice for brides who are still planning their wedding on her Facebook account ( here ), also mentioning the emotional aspect. "A marriage ceremony in a church is much more emotional than a correspondence in the Registry Office. Of course, if it is in accordance with the beliefs of both of you. I would also support the very popular ceremony model in the USA, in which a close family friend or relative can also officially marry after completing a couple of formalities. In any case, it will have much more added value if you are married by a known person," says Katrina.

Looking at the groom

Those who have attended weddings several times will know that during the marriage ceremony, the gaze should be focused not only on the beautiful bride, but also on the groom who faithfully waits for her at the altar. It is the turn of the groom's face that can often become the most emotional moment at the wedding, not only for the bride herself, but also for the guests.

It is said that the more emotions will be visible on the groom's face, the more they will be reflected in the facial expressions of the guests.

Choosing the right song

Music has a great ability to affect people's emotions - everyone who works, for example, in the film industry knows this. That is why choosing the right song during the wedding ceremony will also determine the general emotional mood of the guests.

Addresses of close people

In recent years, this tradition has entered Latvia in a completely new quality. Perhaps because wedding celebrations are more and more often entrusted to organize and manage professionals who already think about creating an emotional mood.

Couples want to hear not only the traditional cries of "Bitter", "Happy!" and others, but also emotional reminiscences and speeches, which take time to prepare. That is why the closest guests are often warned about the couple's wishes to hear a speech, so that the speaker can prepare in time.

Father-daughter dance

Although this tradition is more observed abroad, it is definitely a moment that will make any wedding more emotional. The father-daughter dance cannot help but be moved, especially when you look at the face of the bride's father, who is so proud of his daughter.

Shuffle

Michošana is one of those traditions that can become the most emotional part of the wedding celebration, of course, if it is organized well in advance and according to the couple, it takes place at the right time, when the guests are still able to concentrate and portray the couple themselves and their love, not ideas, as it should be.
