      Start the day off right<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
      <\/div>\n\n\n\n

      How you start the day that should have been your wedding day really matters. It’s a chance to set the tone for the rest of the day, so why not start it off with breakfast in bed – just the two of you? You can either prepare it yourself or\u2026 Have it delivered! Freshly squeezed juice, coffee, good bread and, why not a bouquet of fresh flowers to top it all? Nothing better than putting yourself in a relaxing, cozy mood. It will put a little smile on the corner of your lips! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

      Spa day at home<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
      <\/div>\n\n\n\n

      To continue on the relaxation vibe, there’s nothing like preparing a SPA session at home! This will allow you to let go of any lingering stress and to relax. Create a cocooning and soothing atmosphere by lighting candles, diffusing a calming scent with essential oils for instance and putting THE playlist that goes well with the mood. Meditate, take turns at giving massages, take a bath with lots of foam\u2026 This is an intimate moment to take care of yourself, take care of one another.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      Have your own private wedding ceremony<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
      <\/div>\n\n\n\n

      Take the time to write a love letter to your partner to let them know how you feel about them. Put on your best outfit, buy one for the occasion or pair your wedding veil with your pajamas, your suit jacket with swim shorts or make a wedding dress from your sheets, it works too – as long as it looks like you! Prepare a small ceremony just for the two of you and read your letter to each other. Let your heart speak, take the time to feel each word and feel each emotion they carry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      Video call with your loved ones to celebrate with them<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
      <\/div>\n\n\n\n

      Getting married also means celebrating your love with the people you care most about. So maybe you will feel their absence that day. If so, invite your closest family and friends to join you for a virtual celebration! Prepare fancy cocktails or pop a bottle of champagne on Skype with your loved ones, and toast to your initial wedding date! This is also an opportunity to share with them what you are most looking forward to, and even play a playlist to start a small dance party!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      Have a romantic dinner or picnic<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
      <\/div>\n\n\n\n

      Organize a candlelit dinner at home, a cozy picnic in your garden or in the outdoors, or build a fort in the middle of the living room with your sheets and share your meal there! Whether you want to recreate your wedding menu, to have a crazy fancy meal or some pizzas delivered or to prepare a good meal together, eat what pleases you! 0 limit, 0 guilt!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      Rehearse your first dance in your living room<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
      <\/div>\n\n\n\n

      Nothing stops you from sharing your first dance right there right now, in the middle of your living room! Turn the music on, move the furniture to make room, add fairy lights, and dance, just the two of you. A special and fusional moment during which you forget everything around you. And\u2026 maybe you will end up turning your evening into a dance party! Yeaaah have fun!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
