Traditional Bride, Traditional Weddings

At Hermann Hill, your Missouri wedding location, we feel that the majority of our business comes from traditional brides who want traditional weddings . They seem to have a fairly clear vision of what they want included in their rehearsal, first glance, ceremony, and reception. A traditional bride wants perfection in all phases of her wedding, but in more predictable ways.  She may be willing to accept new ideas if these changes fit within the theme and vision she wants her guests to experience.  Our wedding consultants at Hermann Hill frequently see our traditional brides make changes in the following areas:

•    Adding a first glance at the Gazebo about 2 hours before her ceremony
•    Adding more personalized music and vows to her ceremony
•    A conscious effort to include blended family into the ceremony, particularly children
•    Eliminating a receiving line in favor of the B&G dismissing guests from the chapel
•    Reducing the amount of time allocated for pictures following the ceremony
•    Adding appetizers to her reception
•    Having a more practiced and choreographed entrance of the wedding party into the reception, rehearsed blessing and toasts
•    Including sunset pictures at the Gazebo in her time line and making sure that her photographer/videographer stays for this event.

For all you traditional brides out there, we know that this is one of the most important days in your life. Take a look at Chelsea Clinton's traditional wedding.




That is why our wedding coordinators are here to fulfill your every vision of a  one-of-a-kind-venue, a Hermann Hill experience.
