A Honeymoon Paradise


Mild winters and dry summers are what you will feel in Greece. Picture yourself standing among white structures, enveloped within the blue sky and the much bluer Aegean Sea. Every inch of Greece is filled with beauty and pure romanticism. Thus it makes for the perfect honeymoon getaway.

The Greek Islands are a collection of 6000 islands and islets that form Greece. Crete, the most popular island is also said to be the largest one in Greece. This island is mighty rich in its cultural heritage. The other popular islands in Greece apart from Crete are Rhodes and Mykonos. Rhodes is plain beautiful with cricket sounds and olive groves; while Mykonos keeps bustling with its amazing night life.

Much of the restaurants in Greece located in the busy areas, cater only to tourists. Along with custom cuisines, these restaurants offer tourists a taste of their traditional pastas and mastichas. Meat and fish are of course the main focus of their menus.

You can shop in Greece for a variety of traditional handicrafts, rugs, pottery, handbags and leather shoes… If you’re lucky enough, you might even get to work on the potter’s wheel. The flea market around there is open seven days a week. Including silver and gold jewellery, everything from furniture to vegetables are sold in these markets. Even if you don’t get the time to enjoy the busy market, you can always pick up the things you missed out on your way to the airport.

Stop by the Greek Islands with the one you love on your honeymoon. Along with everything else, the activities on the Greek Islands never fail to spice up your stay in Greece. Contact White, our wedding website in Dubai for more information on the Greek Islands and other top honeymoon destinations.

Need a hand?

Any other party is easily forgotten, but not a wedding party. That’s because a wedding is also an occasion where everyone gets an opportunity to meet distant relatives after a long while. This is why White tries to make your wedding a uniquely pleasant day to remember with the help of its famous flower design and arrangement professionals.

Having a special theme for weddings has always been popular. Although planning a wedding is fun, finding the right kind of flowers, ribbons, candles, lights and other decorations for the ceremony is not easy. Keeping up with their own expectations as well as those of the guests, many couples consider outsourcing their big day to expert wedding planners in the city. Outsourcing your wedding is a much lenient option to choose, rather than being stressed out by the time your wedding day arrives.
One of the best decorators I’ve come across in Dubai are Space And Flower. Their design team mainly consists of French florists. They have a huge stock of decorating accessories that can suit any wedding theme, while their works as perceived by many seem to be more artistic than just a show of elegant flowers, patterns and colours.
White is an online wedding planning service that has everything you require to make your wedding day beautiful. If you haven’t started on planning your wedding event yet, get in touch with the professional co-ordinators at White. They are experts at putting together any kind of wedding service you are looking for.

Well, here are some
entertainment options you could use to keep the air merry.

What could be better than a sizzling salsa performance by professional dancers? Such a performance would not only entertain your guests but will also probe them to get on to the dance floor and try a few Latino moves themselves. The chemistry of this form of dance illuminates with passion.
James and Alex are professional dancers from the UK whose love for salsa moved them to the Middle East. This duo has performed a number of events in UAE, Europe and Asia. They also teach salsa. Their services are in conjunction with White our online wedding planning service.

Pick Your Wedding Dress Wisely



Over the years, brides have always managed to look like princesses on their wedding day; wearing a beautiful dress displaying different patterns and even different colours (like blue, off white, beige) to look even more beautiful. While planning your wedding, one of the biggest most exciting decisions a bride would have to make is planning on how her wedding gown is going to be.

Here are some tips that can help while screening through wedding dresses:

-Being the bride/princess for a day doesn’t mean you would not be moving around. That is why your wedding dress needs to be comfortable. If you’re able to dance with it, you ought to be able to move freely in it. Even your wedding shoes must pass the same test.

-Many brides prefer tailor made dresses as you can select the right pattern that suits your body type. If you are planning to buy your dress from a shop, be sure to ask the sales person for their recommendation.

-As brides in the past expressed themselves with light colours other than white, don’t be afraid to add a dash of blue, pink or even yellow to your white gown in order to give it that distinguished look.

A UAE wedding service website famed as White offers bridal gowns made by Ayesha Depala that are elegant yet glamorous and are known for their designs as well as finishing. Her clients range from young ladies to mature woman.

Whatever you choose, it is advisable to make sure that you love what you’re wearing on your big day. Incase your other requirements like hair styling, makeup or photography have not yet been fulfilled, you can check what White has to offer at our Dubai wedding website.

Preserving Your First Moments Together: Wedding Photography


If it wasn’t for photography, we would never be able to capture those pleasant moments we want to remember. Nobody needs to explain why we need a photographer at our weddings. But the only concern of the bride and groom is that the photographer should be able to capture exactly how they felt on their wedding day. All we want is to remember is the excitement, the nervousness, the beauty, the shies and the happiness that was scattered around in the atmosphere during our marriage ceremony.

Many couples seldom realize that their photographer is too busy clicking formal photographs and in the process the real charm of the wedding is lost. Some photographers even go to the extent of make the wedding album look like an attendance book! Wouldn’t pictures like the tears of happiness in your mother’s eyes, or your little niece playing with confetti add more value to your wedding album? Your wedding has got everything to do with emotion and nothing to do with formality. Therefore, finding the right photographer who would be able to capture every valuable moment of your big day is very difficult.

If you happen to look for genius photography that can tell you entire wedding ceremony in the form of a tale, then you’re in luck! White wedding planners have the perfect photographer in store for you. Blue Eye Picture is one of the best out of what White offers in photography and videography. They shoot combining a traditional as well as a modern approach in an unusual photojournalistic style.

Feng Shui For A Happy Married Life



You might have heard of Feng Shui being considered before the making of a building. As most people still haven’t understood what Feng Shui actually means and the importance of it, here goes…

Feng Shui is a science that evolved in China many years ago and is now practiced in abundance by Westerners. The words ‘Feng Shui’ directly translate as ‘wind water’ in English. It is basically used to tell you which area to build your house in, where should the door be facing, etc. in order to balance the energies of your office, your home or any other space. Feng Shui has many ways to improve the positive energies of your living space. But only a professional Feng Shui consultant will be able to guide you appropriately.

From the point of view of Feng Shui, even the plants in your home need to be placed in the right place or it can cause an imbalance. Wooden plants are considered auspicious. Instead of placing flowering plants in bedrooms, married couples wanting children should place fruits like pomegranates as a symbol of fertility according to Feng Shui.

Unlike what most people think, Feng Shui is not something superstitious. Donald Trump uses it; why shouldn’t we?

White recently featured a certified Feng Shui consultant called Proshat Sarabloo who is one of the recent renowned pioneers in the Middle East. She specializes in using Feng Shui in order to bring opportunities, success and harmony in the couples’s life.

Our wedding planning directory also lists heath facilities to couples interested in achieving a healthy lifestyle, before and after marriage.

The Wedding Cake: Much More Than A Tasty Dessert


Everyone today agrees that the cutting of the wedding cake is one of the most important parts of the ceremony. Initially, the idea of piling up several cakes one above the other came from the Romans. They would pile up many cakes (each of different sizes) as high as they could, while the bride and groom would try kissing over the cake without toppling it over. If they succeeded at that, it meant that the newly wed couple would share a life of peace and prosperity together.

Couples today may not be keeping such traditions in mind for sure, while selecting a wedding cake. All they want is a unique wedding, which brings it down to having a unique cake and cake topper.

Many wedding planners in UAE might show you a range of elegantly designed cakes through photographs before you finally select one. But remember that the wedding cake is a reflection of your personality and it’s important to choose one according to the theme of the wedding. Therefore, ordering the right cake, by the right person, at least 3-6 months in advance makes perfect sense.

We at White understand that the wedding cake is so important that it can make or even break the whole wedding theme. Uniqueness is another main factor. That is why we customize wedding cakes so that no two cakes can be similar. Our renowned cake vendors like ChoCo’a and Galler Chocolate have been creating the most exquisite wedding cakes by expert chefs and designers. Feel free to check our wedding website in UAE for further details.

A Mini Guide To Invitation Planning



A wedding invitation card is an official announcement of your marriage to your near and dear ones. It is the first impression of your marriage. Although it often seems like a tiny part of the celebration, it always turns out to be a cumbersome task to manage.

As you know, the chances of errors occurring in invitation cards are high; especially if done last minute. So the key to avoid such slips is planning and preparing in advance. Each task involved in planning your wedding is subject to a deadline and so is the task of taking care of the invitations.

Your invitation planning comprises making the guest list, which is your number one task. There are so many people we want to invite, but budget and location constraints may pull us down. Thus we need to carefully consider whom to invite and whom to leave out, along with the use of invitation etiquettes.

In order to make an informed decision, you will need to start scanning several invitation cards for understanding the kinds of paper quality and texture available in the market.

Select which invitation design and verses would suit the theme of your ceremony better and gather all information needed to be printed in the card; like dates, timings, full names and addresses. Make sure you have the recent addresses of everyone to be invited too. You also need to co-ordinate with the location of your reception before you decide on your RSVP date to be printed.

Our online bridal registry called White possesses a list of top class wedding vendors in Dubai who provide beautiful custom made stationery like personalized ribbons, invitations, menus, place cards and lots more. Contact White for more details.
