1. Enjoy Your Wedding Day With These Simple Steps
If you are going to get married very soon, you probably have some questions about how to plan your
wedding. Planning a wedding should be fun, not stressful. That is the purpose of this article - to help
you plan your wedding without stress.
Of course, the most important aspect of getting married is choosing the right intended! Don't rush
into this decision. Give careful thought to that person, what you absolutely must have in your life,
and what might irritate you.
Think about wedding transportation. Some guests might need a ride to their hotel, so make sure
there are taxis available (at minimum). Also, this is helpful for those who drank liquor during the
event.
Make sure that you carefully consider what to include in your vows, as they will be something that
your future spouse remembers forever. Keep in mind that the union of marriage is a long term
commitment and will require both parties to make some sacrifices. Express your love in your vows.
Think about asking your family if they want to stay for the honeymoon. It can even make it cheaper
for everyone if you book more days at some hotels. Also, this will increase the quality of memories
that you have.
If you are hosting a destination wedding, your guests may appreciate receiving a basket of vacation
goodies in their room on their arrival. Some useful items to include might be tourist information, sun
hats, sunglasses, disposable cameras, maps of the area, sunscreen, and so on. Also make sure you
include a local restaurant guide that makes it simple for them to grab a bite to eat.
Share an online itinerary with your guests,
especially the out-of-town ones, so that everyone
can plan their schedules in advance. Maintain an
updated lists of all events, such as the rehearsal or
a pre-wedding dinner, so your guests know exactly
where they will be at all times.
An ordained relative or friend can step in to
officiate your wedding. This ordination can take
place quickly and easily online. This can make your
ceremony more personal, and can save you on an officiant. Make sure this is a legal practice in your
state before you get somebody ordained.
One way this is done is by offering a menu consisting of popular ethnic dishes. Add a twist by using
ethnic drinks, wedding favors, or dessert options.
If you have children in the ceremony, dress them comfortably. Favor soft fabrics, and avoid dressing
children in clothes that are too tight to fit comfortably. You also need to give children a chance to
get used to new shoes. Whether shoes are old or new, your children need to be comfortable in them
during the wedding. This allows the kids time to focus on what they have to do instead of struggling
2. with their outfits.
Always understand the legal requirements for your location when planning a destination wedding.
You should be aware of things like fees, requirements in residency, and other logistics before you
make hotel reservations and book services for the wedding day.
If you don't want to spend a small fortune on flower arrangements on the reception tables, have you
considered a display of potted plants instead? Use some glazed, colorful ceramic pots or embellish
earthy terracotta stoneware using decoupage, ribbons, or some fancy paint effects. After the
wedding, guests can take the potted plants home as a wedding favor, or the new couple can plant
them in their yard.
As far as bridesmaids go, select the gowns that will be worn before asking them to be a part of your
wedding party. Many friendships end over a disagreement about the bridesmaids' gowns. Be sure to
select comfortable dresses that match your theme and look good on your bridesmaids. This ensures
that you have a great wedding without any hurt feelings or misunderstandings.
Another way you can save money is on the flowers. A flower girl does not need a large flower
wreath. Use silk flowers in lieu of fresh ones. You can keep silk flowers forever, and they will not
cost you as much. You can also use it at your reception too.
Utilizing these suggestions can help you remain calm and relaxed while planning the joyous event.
Your wedding will be truly memorable as it starts you on the next phase of your life.
