7. Where Were They? 

Set up a photo board with pictures of the couple at different stages of their relationship—vacations, holidays, funny moments—and have guests guess where and when each photo was taken. It’s a fun way to relive some of the couple’s best memories while letting guests get to know them a little better.

This “Where Were They?” game template is fully customizable to match your engagement party theme.

8. Guess Who: Bride or Groom

This game is a great way to see how well everyone knows each partner! Guests take turns guessing whether a statement or fun fact belongs to the bride or groom, like “This person loves to cook” or “This person has a fear of heights.”

This “Guess Who: Bride or Groom” game comes in packs of 10 to 100 cards, available in your choice of white cardstock or brown Kraft paper.

9. Engagement Feud

It’s time to play the classic “Family Feud,” but with a wedding twist! Create a list of wedding-related survey questions (like “What’s the best gift to give a couple?” or “What’s the most popular wedding song?”), and have guests guess the most popular answers.

Engagement Feud is a digital download, so you can print as many copies as you need for your event.

10. Ring Hunt

Hide a few plastic or faux rings around the party space and challenge your guests to find them. The one who finds the most rings gets a prize! It’s a simple game that’ll have everyone on the lookout, adding a little playful competition to the party.

A Floral Rue de Seine Wedding Dress Inspired this Nature-Filled Celebration

January 2, 2025 | justine

When Taylor and Siegen started planning their wedding, they knew one thing for certain: the dress would be the star. Siegen’s stunning floral Rue de Seine wedding dress became the centerpiece of their nature-inspired celebration, shaping everything from the florals to the reception decor.  n

“It was challenging because Taylor didn’t want to see the dress until the wedding day,” shared Siegen. “He was super hands-off about the dress, but he ended up coordinating so many other details, like his suit, the flowers, and even the reception design.”

The couple’s vision came together perfectly, thanks in large part to the inspiration from the floral wedding gown. The color palette reflected the soft, breezy feeling of pre-autumn, with hues that perfectly complemented the gown’s romantic floral details. “I wanted something organic and nature-inspired, but Taylor wanted a more modern feel,” Siegen explained. “Somehow, it all clicked and ended up looking so cohesive.”

Their chosen venue, The Oaks, echoed that balance of nature and modernity. “The venue was just right—quaint garden vibes with luxury amenities,” Taylor said. “We looked at so many options, but this one was perfect for what we envisioned.”

Take a closer look at the meaningful moments from Taylor and Siegen’s wedding, captured beautifully by Junebug vendor McKenzie Bigliazzi Photography. These images bring their love story to life, showcasing the special details and unforgettable moments that made their day truly unique.

For Taylor, the moment Siegen walked down the aisle in her floral Rue de Seine wedding dress was something he would never forget. “Seeing Siegen in her dress was magical—just unforgettable,” he shared. “It’s a memory I’ll carry with me forever.”

Siegen felt the same way when she saw Taylor standing at the altar. “Seeing him in his suit and sharing our vows was everything,” Siegen said. “And the decor—it was amazing. We’re still getting compliments about it!” She also gave a special shout-out to KaraKara Blooms, the designer responsible for the stunning floral arrangements.

When it comes to their favorite wedding photos, both Taylor and Siegen had standout moments. Taylor’s favorite was a stunning shot of Siegen in her floral dress, framed by the flower arch and trees in the background. “That shot is just perfect,” he said.

Their photographer, McKenzie Bigliazzi, captured these unforgettable moments, and Siegen had nothing but praise. “McKenzie was incredible. Not only was she our photographer, but she also helped us plan everything. She was calm, patient, and just executed everything perfectly.”

While they originally set a $25,000 budget for their wedding, Taylor and Siegen ended up doubling that amount, spending over $50,000 to ensure everything was perfect. “We wanted this day to be unforgettable, so we didn’t hold back,” Siegen shared. “The florals, the food, the venue—all of those things were worth splurging on.”

“We kept our guest list smaller, which helped balance the cost,” Taylor added. “We stuck to close family and friends, which ended up reducing costs but allowed us to really focus on the things that mattered most.”

Create a whimsical wedding table aesthetic with moss, garden florals, and these glass hurricane candle holders.

And, of course, they had plenty of fun at the reception. “The photo booth was a hit with everyone,” Siegen said. “It was such a fun way to capture memories throughout the night.”

Despite their large splurge on decor and venue, Taylor and Siegen made sure to keep things personal and fun. They even created mini “Post-Wedding Weekend Recovery” kits for guests, anticipating a few sore heads the morning after. “We thought it might get a little wild, so we wanted to make sure our guests were taken care of!”

The couple also appreciated the support from their vendors. “Love, Emily Bakery was amazing. She stepped in at the last minute to cater the cake and desserts and was so easy to work with,” said Taylor. “Everything she made was delicious!”

The DJ also received high praise for his ability to time everything perfectly. “He kept the vibe exactly how we wanted it,” Siegen added.

Taylor and Siegen have some valuable tips for couples planning their own weddings. “Definitely plan to double—or even triple—your original budget,” Taylor said. “We started with $25,000 in mind but ended up spending around $50,000. And it still wasn’t quite enough!”

Siegen added, “And when it comes to the guest list, be clear about how many invites you’re sending. We only allowed one invitation per couple, not per person, which helped keep things intimate.”

Their final piece of advice? “Start thinking about your wedding songs and timing well in advance. It makes everything run smoother when you’ve planned ahead!”

In the end, Taylor and Siegen’s wedding was everything they imagined—a floral-filled celebration that perfectly balanced organic beauty with modern flair, all thanks to the inspiration from the floral Rue de Seine wedding dress.
