1. First Contact and Initial Consultation

• Initial Consultation (Free):

The first contact is made conveniently via phone, WhatsApp, or email. You can send us your initial questions and schedule a free, non-binding consultation.

• Consultation:

In a virtual meeting, we discuss your ideas, wishes, and the general flow of your wedding – without the need for you to fly to Florida. This gives us a good understanding of your needs from the start.

 

2. Detailed Planning from a Distance

• Personalized Online Consultation:

All further planning is done digitally – via phone, WhatsApp, email, or video conference. During this time, we discuss:

• Location Selection: We present various options (beach, garden, historical building, etc.) and help you choose the best location for your vision.

• Ceremony and Schedule: Detailed coordination of how your bilingual ceremony (German and/or English) will unfold and which personal rituals you want to incorporate.

• Checklists & Schedules: You will receive comprehensive checklists and a timeline so that you always know what needs to be organized and when.

• Booking and Coordination:

All necessary services – from limousine services and shuttle transfers to styling, decorations, and additional extras – are booked and coordinated in advance.

 

3. Marriage License Organization

• Digital Support:

We assist you online with gathering the required documents (e.g., passport or ID card, and, if necessary, divorce or death certificates).

• Appointment and Personal Meeting On-Site:

Once you arrive in Florida, we schedule a time to apply for the marriage license. A few days before the wedding, we meet in person to go to the authorities and finalize the paperwork.

 

4. Wedding Day Preparation

• Styling and Beauty:

• Hair & Make-up: A professional stylist will come to the agreed location (e.g., your hotel or directly to the venue) to prepare you for the big day.

• Optional: Trial Styling: If desired, we offer a trial styling via video call beforehand, so you can ensure everything meets your expectations.

• Transport and Logistics:

• Limousine Service: We organize limousines to pick you up from the hotel or your accommodation and bring you safely to the wedding venue.

• Shuttle Service for Guests: If guests are arriving, we coordinate a shuttle service that will pick them up about 30 minutes before the couple’s departure and transport them to the ceremony location.

 

5. Ceremony Flow

• Refreshment Service for Waiting Guests:

For all guests who arrive early at the ceremony location and wait for the couple, we provide refreshing beverages – for a tropical style wedding, this could include fresh coconuts to drink or other drinks tailored to match the theme of your wedding.

• Arrival and Final Preparations:

On the wedding day, you will meet at the ceremony venue – whether it’s a picturesque beach, a peaceful garden, or another desired location. Here, we finalize the last details and organizational points, so you can fully focus on the special moment.

• The Ceremony:

• Individual, Bilingual Ceremony: The ceremony will be conducted in your desired language (German, English, or both) – personal and intimate, with all elements reflecting your love.

• Personal Design: You can include personal rituals, readings, or music to make the moment as unique as you wish.

• Finalizing the Marriage:

To make your wedding day as smooth as possible, Dreamday-Planner.de will take care of all administrative steps. Right after the ceremony, we handle the signing of the marriage license and ensure it is taken back to the Clerk of Court – so you don’t have to worry about a thing.

• First Toast Together:

After the ceremony, we will traditionally raise a toast with non-alcoholic champagne – as alcohol is not permitted outdoors in Florida. For younger guests, we offer orange juice or other juices as per your request.

 

6. Optional: Celebration and After-Party

• Reception or Celebration:

Would you like to continue celebrating after the ceremony?

• Celebration Planning: We also support you in organizing a reception, dinner, or larger party after the ceremony.

• Location and Decorations: All details, from choosing the celebration location to catering and music, will be discussed and finalized beforehand.

• Additional Services:

• Photography and Videography: Professional photographers and videographers will capture the most beautiful moments of your day.

• Live Music or DJ: Depending on your music preferences, we can arrange entertainment to set the perfect mood.

 

7. Conclusion and Follow-Up

• Certified Marriage Certificate:

After the ceremony, you will receive a certified marriage certificate. We will also advise you on any next steps, such as obtaining an apostille or certified translations if necessary for recognition in your home country.

• Feedback and Final Meeting:

A short follow-up meeting – either online or in person – will conclude the day. You can provide feedback and ask any final questions.

 

Flexibility and Customization

 

Please note that this schedule may be adjusted based on the package you’ve chosen and the specific needs of your wedding. If, for example, you only want the ceremony without a celebration afterward or wish to renew your vows, individual steps will be omitted or replaced with services of your choice. Our goal is to tailor your day exactly to your wishes while covering all essential details.

 

With this comprehensive and flexible process, Dreamday-Planner.de ensures you can focus fully on what matters most on your big day: your love and the unforgettable moment when you say “I do.” Our all-inclusive package will guide you from the initial digital consultation to the final, personally experienced ceremony in Florida – for a stress-free and dreamy wedding day.
