A His and Hers Wedding Wishlist

Wedding wishlists! When it comes to prepping for your wedding, there is often a fair amount of list anxiety. This can tend to outweigh the fun and excitement of this amazing adventure.

So why not take the time to savour the moments leading up by creating a His and Her list for some fun before and on the day?

Take a look at some of these ideas and see which one fits your inclination.

Her Wishlist

Why not start the day before your wedding together with your bridesmaids, and roll into your big day with style.

Slumber party – a great way to relax with the girls. Try out a Movie night, or just relaxing and chatting with a bottle of bubbly.
Pamper Box – why not get some pamper boxes together to enjoy your night before. You can even create your own at Gift Lady.
Instax camera – use an Instax camera to capture all the fun and informal pictures with your group of friends.

On the wedding morning, do a Yoga session – get your girls to do some calming yoga to start your day out feeling great.
Eating – It is important to have something to eat to keep you feeling strong, and a specially designed food platter could be just the thing to have the girls in top form.
Gin Bar – why not have a little chilled something to add to the fun. Try the Gin Tin for a mobile gin experience.
Hair and makeup – One of the top priorities for a Bride on the day. To keep yourself feeling your best, get a local hair and makeup artist to take care of your needs for the day.

His Wishlist

Getting together with the guys to celebrate your new adventure is intended to be enjoyed by both you as the Groom and your groomsman. With that in mind, here are some ideas for your Wishlist.

Golf – there are no less than 5 golf courses, varying in technical ability and style, within easy driving distance from Hilton. These are Maritzburg Golf Club, Victoria Country Club, Sakabula Golf Course, Howick Golf Course and Bosch Hoek Golf Course. Why not have a not too serious round with the lads the day before to celebrate?
Photos – who says the Groom and crew don’t want their own photoshoot? Set up an informal shoot with the boys with a local photographer.
Vintage Car Hire – Maybe you are a fan of the classics. You could indulge it by hiring a classic car for the day of your wedding. Contact Colin Melville or Rob Andrews on +27 (0)81 5433 647 / +27 (0)82 471 3434.

Mobile tasting bar – Ensure that you are hydrated and have the chance to taste some fine brews. Get a mobile tasting experience set up to suit your needs.
Food – It is important that on the day you make sure you are strong. Get yourself some manly food catering while you get ready.
Barber – Looking sharp means feeling sharp. Get a local barber to give you a treatment that will have you looking and feeling good.

Having a little fun with your friends and/or family who are sharing your big day with you, is a great way to make sure you are relaxed and ready to enjoy your special day. Creating your own style and brand of Wishlist is a surefire way to bring in a little bit of fun.
