Sweet Gibraltar Weddings

  It might seem – at least at first – a simple enough task to put together a guest list for a wedding, whether in Gibraltar or elsewhere. But of course, as almost anyone who has ever attempted it knows, the process can be a minefield of trying to figure out who you simply must include among your invitees, and who you can safely refrain from inviting.  So, are there any particular people who you really don’t need to invite to your nuptials in Gibraltar? There are a few categories that come to our minds, like the below.  People who you’ve long fallen out of contact with  We’ve probably all known people down the years who we were friends with – perhaps even really close to – at a particular point in time, only to have found ourselves drifting out of contact with them. Perhaps they even invited you to their wedding – but does that mean you should still return the favour, even if you’ve barely heard from them for a while?  Of course, there’s no exact scienc...

  You probably won’t need our team at Sweet Gibraltar Weddings to tell you of the importance of visually capturing those special moments of the most special day of your life. After all, couples tend to hold Gibraltar weddings in large part because of the stunning backdrop and other conditions that the British Overseas Territory offers for captivating photography. But what if you have a relatively small guest list in mind for your nuptials, of 30 people or fewer?  You might not think that the size of your wedding guest list would make much difference to your wedding photography – but keeping the number of attendees low can be a boon in itself for the snaps your photographer creates. Here are some reasons why.  It could free up money to spend more on your desired wedding photographer  The cost-of-living crisis has forced many of us to make extremely difficult decisions on spending across various areas of our lives. But one thing you might not be in a mood to...

  Earlier this year, we wrote on the Sweet Gibraltar Weddings blog suggesting that you could spend the run-up to the spring constructing a wedding website , which is an increasingly prominent trend in today’s highly digitally oriented world. And we’ve even written in the past about the key things you might look to include on such a website . That still leaves one other subject uncovered, though… the question of what you shouldn’t include on your wedding website.  Yes, putting together a wedding website isn’t a ‘rule-free’ process – there are certain things we would urge you to avoid doing! So, whether you’re getting married in Gibraltar shortly or it’s a more distant prospect, here are some things you probably ought to not do with your own wedding website.  Providing only the most basic information  If the only things you have on your wedding website are a small picture of the two of you or the venue, along with the venue address and the date and time of...

  For many people planning weddings in Gibraltar , their choice of musical act will feel like one of the most important decisions they make in relation to their special day. After all, the music that is played at your nuptials – as well as who plays it, and how they play it – will make a big difference to the all-round ‘vibe’.  And as we’re all about the practicalities of organising weddings in Gibraltar here at Sweet Gibraltar Weddings, what are some of the things you ought to check when you are looking to secure the services of a band, musician, or DJ for your big day on the British Overseas Territory?  The date of the musical act’s availability  This might seem like an obvious enough tip, but it’s a particularly important one if you have your heart set on a specific band, musician, or DJ.  If that sounds like your situation, try to secure their services for the required date as soon as you have confirmed the venue. With certain times of year being e...
