Wedding Program
Posted on | January 2, 2012 | No Comments
Wedding programs are not for everyone. Don’t feel that you must include them in your wedding. They are an extra cost and can be one more thing that must be done to add to your stress level. That said, they can also be a nice touch to your nuptials. You can include everyone in a program and your guests are able to preview the ceremony that is to come. It is a little gesture that can put a smile on the face of your loved ones, and is a great way to acknowledge them and what they have done for you. Read more

I know this may sound obvious, but don’t be afraid to ask questions. Don’t be afraid to question the people who are advising you either. While they do this for a living and know a lot about planning a wedding, they don’t always know what is best for you. They also may not always have you best interest at heart. Sometimes the more they get you to spend, the more money they make. Not always, but just keep that in mind. Read more

When it comes to choosing the place to hold your wedding there are lots of options and factors to consider. Make sure you visit at least a few places, I’d say between 5-10 minimum. Tour the facility, have a taste test, get a detailed report of what they offer. Then you need to compare the pros and cons of each. Obviously your budget will have the greatest impact on where you choose, but location, convenience, services offered as well as many other things need to be considered. Read more

Wedding Plan - Guest list
Posted on | November 16, 2011 | No Comments
The next thing you want to figure out is your guest list. It doesn’t have to be perfect, but you want to have an accurate guide to how many guests you will be having. You also need to let your parents, in-laws, or other important people involved know if they can invite everyone they want or if they need to pick only close family and friends. Better to get somethings out in the open early on as well. If you and your significant other are planning a small intimate wedding and the parents are thinking something more elaborate, the sooner you reach an agreement the better. Read more
