Wedding - Guide To Your Special Day!


If getting married sounds like a great idea but planning the wedding gives you a chilly feeling, don"t worry. You can make sure your wedding goes well even if you have no idea where to begin planning. These easy, simple tips will set your feet on the right path to having an amazingly pleasant wedding experience no matter what details you want to include.

To plan a wedding on a small budget, consider asking friends or relatives to donate their help or talent in lieu of a wedding gift. From photography to catering to making your wedding cake. Your loved ones may be thrilled to pitch in with the skills they have to keep your wedding day budget-friendly.

When planning your wedding, you should choose a location that will make the wedding memorable and special for you. You do not necessarily have to hold your wedding in a church like everyone else. You can choose to have a beach wedding, a wedding on a cliff overlooking the ocean, or a wedding right in your backyard. Pick a place that will make the event feel that much more special, and look great in pictures!

Consider having your wedding in a public park. Venues can be extremely expensive, but a park offers you a large, beautiful space at a fraction of the cost of other places. It is important to remember that you will have to set up seating and offer shelter for your guests, which could add on to the cost.

It can be a great idea to provide your guests with direction cards from the reception site back to major highways. You can have these at the reception, so that anyone who needs them can easily pick them up. Not everyone has a GPS in their car, or can use mapping software. Having direction cards can help to make everyone"s evening end well.

If you"re trying to save money on your wedding reception, consider planning it for a time that does not require a lunch or dinner to be served. Instead, you can just serve appetizers, drinks, and/or desserts. This can save you a significant amount over the cost of providing a full meal.

Before you get married you MUST honestly disclose to your future spouse what your financial situation is. If you get married only to have your spouse find out that you"re in imminent financial ruin your marriage won"t last very long. Both of you should come to the table with a list of debts and a copy of your free credit report, and then figure out how to move on from there.

Regardless of what guests you"re inviting, where you want to have the ceremony, how you want to decorate and what music you want to play, you can make sure your wedding is exactly the way you imagine it. Even if you"ve never planned anything successfully in your life, you can make sure your wedding is the exception to the rule, and you can do that by following the above tips.
