Tie little decorative items into all the elements of your wedding decor. Have a ribbon used on your bouquet mirrored on your centerpieces, or in your gown, or even in your hair. It"s the little details which will make your wedding look superior as it shows you"ve put a real effort into make it your perfect day.

Speak to your family and friends in regards to services for your wedding. You never know when you might have an overlooked relative who handles music or cooking. You may also find that your friends have connections to service professionals who can offer you a discounted price due to the referral.

Consider having an alcohol-free reception to alleviate the worries that inebriated guests can cause. If you do choose to go this route, make sure to offer many beverage options to your guests including soda, water, coffee, and tea so they don"t feel like they"re going to get parched. Having a homemade fruit punch served in a fountain can make a gorgeous centerpiece for your catering table!

When planning your wedding, try picking out a theme for your big day. When you have a wedding theme, you will be focused on what you need for that theme.

It may be wise to put an announcement for your wedding in the newspaper. It is common to forget to invite certain people to your wedding, and you do not want to make anyone feel neglected. Do not forget to put the location, date and time of your wedding in the announcement.

As much as your wedding guests might like an open bar, don"t spring for it if it doesn"t fit in your budget. Open bars are always big hits at parties, but they aren"t quite as fun for the person that has to pay for it. Put together a list of some popular mixed drinks and have plenty of beer on ice for your guests instead.

Make sure that you wear comfortable shoes on your wedding day. You will be standing throughout most of the ceremony and dancing for most of the reception, so you do not want to neglect your feet. This does not mean you have to get ugly shoes, just get comfortable, attractive ones.
