How To Plan For The Wedding Of Your Dreams

By David R Serrangton


If you have just become engaged, you will need to start planning your wedding right away. You may be surprised how far in advance venues and vendors must be booked in advance of your wedding date. The following tips will outline the work ahead for you to plan out the perfect wedding.

When you are choosing the right cake for your wedding, be sure to choose something that incorporates both of your tastes. There is nothing worse than a wedding cake that isn't enjoyed by both the bride and groom as it shows a one-sided nature to the marriage already and can be quite a disappointment for one of you.

When you are buying someone a wedding gift you should do your best to buy something that is listed in the wedding registry. This is a good idea because people tend to put things they feel they really need on the registry so you will not be wasting money on something that is of no use to them.

Give your guests directions to both your ceremony and reception site (if they are different). Online direction sites and GPS machines can be wrong or there may be an easier way to get your guests where they need to be. Print out your own or ask the reception site if they have handouts that you can give to your friends and family.

If you're planning on having a wedding in the summer, let your guests dress appropriately. No one should be expected to wear a heavy suit or tuxedo, so let them know on the invitation that casual business attire will be fine. You should also take it into consideration when choosing your dress, and your groom can also wear a lighter fabric.

Examine your guest list closely. Weddings are expensive, and your friends will not take it personally if you are not able to include them in the celebration. Review your list and think about how necessary it is for each person to come to your special day. You can save a lot of money by trimming the list down.

If you are planning a wedding ceremony and reception that are infused with Tuscan or Mediterranean inspirations, opt for aromatic herbs and green plants in your floral arrangements and centerpieces. This is especially effective if guests are treated to a full meal at the reception. Attractive and fragrant choices include dill, marjoram, rosemary, and bowls of fresh lavender.

Sometimes a good wedding tip is to keep it simple! The more detailed and extravagant the more expensive. Sure it is the best moment of your life, but perhaps that money could be better spent on a house, or even the most amazing vacation ever which we colloquially call a honeymoon.

Consider guests who might have special needs when planning your wedding. Select a venue which is accessible to wheelchairs, for example, or a menu which includes kosher, halal, or vegan options. Always include an alternative for your champagne toast, like sparkling apple cider or even sparkling water with a twist of lemon.
