Wedding are special! Two becoming as one is very special! No doubt, it will be a day to remember! Enjoy it! Weddings are just as unique as the people are that make up the marriage. It may range from large to small, expensive or inexpensive, formal or casual. However, decisions have to be made. Following are some tips and tricks others have found valuable to make those decisions easier:
When you are planning the attire for your bridesmaids, try to be as considerate as possible. Have them wear a dress that they can use again, To show that you care for them and are not in this for yourself. They will appreciate this, as their dress will not go to waste.
Make sure that your whole arsenal of wedding attire is as comfortable as possible as you are going to have to spend many hours wearing this material. Additionally, you should wear shoes that fit perfectly since you are probably going to be on the dance floor often. Maximize your comfort to have a memorable night.
Be sure to have many drink options available at your wedding. Not everyone enjoys the same things and will be happier with a large selection to choose what type of drink they would like. When there is alcohol being consumed, be sure to keep hydrating drinks available, such as lemonade and tea.
Try ethnic-themed catering to add some spice to your reception. Think outside the traditional choices of chicken or steak. Variety will make things very beautiful and elegant.
Make sure that you never plan your bachelor or bachelorette parties the day before the wedding. There may be a lot of drinking at these parties, and the last thing that you will want to do is ruin the day of your wedding because you are not fully functional. Have a calm day right before your wedding.
Vintage or antique place settings are a perfect addition to a retro or period-inspired rehearsal dinner or reception, but they are also extremely expensive. Instead of spending days trying to track down a complete set, consider private rental companies that, for a modest sum, rent out entire place settings, silverware, and serving utensils.
For brides-to-be, do not settle for the first wedding dress you find. You want to make sure that you explore your options and end up with the dress of your dreams. If your dress is just going to end up sitting in the closet, you may even want to consider renting a dress for the day.
For your wedding rehearsal and dinner, do not wait until the last minute to put together a “look” for your hair, makeup, attire, and accessories. This is an important and memorable part of the wedding experience, and you can create a more involved participation by using the time as a way to offer friends and loved ones, a sneak peak into the design aesthetic of your big day.
Share your discounts on airline tickets with family and friends who will be attending your destination wedding. If you have Airmiles, see if you can help by purchasing tickets for your family with the reduction in cost thanks to those miles. Ask around with all attendees to see if they can pool their resources and get more discounts!
Hopefully, the above tips and tricks have helped you with some decisions to be made regarding your wedding! No doubt, getting married is a special occasion! A day you will not forget! It may be large or small, expensive or inexpensive, formal or casual – regardless it will be special, because it is your day! Congratulations!
