There does not need to be any input from the parents because they are not paying for it. 

No Cell Phones During Ceremony

It may seem harmless to have your cell phone out to take pictures of the bride and groom or to record the exchanging of vows, but cell phones can really get in the way. Going cellphoneless is becoming more and more popular and it's easy to see why. When the wedding photographer is taking pictures you are not going to want cell phones in the air ruining the shot. Same goes for any recoding done. Just like when you go see a move at the theater you don't want your phone ringing and disrupting because it can be rude. 

No White Dress

White dresses haven't always been the traditional wear in the western culture and it doesn't always have to be.  A wedding dress should be something you are comfortable in and feel beautiful. More and more brides are choosing to switch things up with the color of their dress. It should be a reflective of your style because it is your day after all.
