What You Should Know Before Getting Married

By One Lovely Couple

Planning a wedding can be very stressful. The work of planning, choosing and paying for everything can create an overwhelming amount of stress. The tips that follow will help guide you as you get into planning your wedding.

Keep your outdoor wedding decorations simple, at all costs. You will want to be the central of your wedding and too many decorations can take away from this. Keep your decorations very neat and ornate, but make sure not to go overboard, in order to allow your guests to maximize their experience.

If you’re planning on having a cash bar at your wedding, consider giving your guests tickets for free drinks. You can place them with the guests’ name cards and then let them know what they’re for when they arrive to the reception. Also, hire a company to run the bar that will keep the drink price low.

Do not let family and friends tell you how your wedding should or shouldn’t be. Many times, people who are getting married let their family influence their decisions and they end up unhappy with the way their big day turned out. If you require help with your wedding, hire a wedding planner.

Tell your DJ the songs that you do not want to be played. It could be heavy metal or country, or even a song that reminds you of someone not-so-special. Make sure that let the one you are marrying know as well.

Keep your toasts short and to the point. Long, rambling stories about that time you were in college and went on a long road trip together start out cute but end up in yawns when they take too long. If you have a funny story to share, make sure that it is less than three minutes long.

If you are not having a church wedding, consider targeting an outdoor venue. Beaches and parks may offer an environment that makes your wedding day perfect and at a reduced cost. Another benefit to this type of venue is the ability to offer ample room for guests. Consider outside venues that offer indoor facilities in the case of inclement weather.

Pick bridesmaids that can be buddies for the children in the ceremony. Give them a care package with healthy treats, water, books, paper and crayons. All this can be used as a distraction when traveling between venues, or while waiting for pictures to be taken. Doing this will keep the children occupied, while still having them accessible.

When you are planning your wedding reception, and money is tight, you should choose buffet style to serve your guests. The bottom line is, buffet service is much cheaper than having your guests served dinner individually. If money is tight, conserve the resources for something you really need, like a place to live or furniture.

Save money on expensive floral arrangements and centerpieces by creating a more relaxed, informal, tea party-inspired reception area or wedding breakfast. Think delicate: small, dainty, fragrant pink and yellow rosebuds, affordable carnations, and tiny daisies. You can use vintage teacups and place settings to complete the look. Instead of a large, tiered cake, inquire about sweet, perfectly portioned petit fors.

When planning the venue for your wedding, the acoustics are an important consideration. Your guests need to be able to hear you over the sound of lapping beach waves or noisy birds. Investigate the sound quality of wherever you are getting married, and determine whether or not you can be easily heard. You can always rent a sound system that has clip on microphones for you, your betrothed and the official conducting the wedding if need be.

Since you have read the tips above, you can start planning your wedding with ease. Whether you are planning a wedding or thinking about someone else’s wedding, the advice that follows is beneficial.
