If you have a lower budget for your wedding, don’t include flowers in your decorations. For centerpieces you can use branches you find on a walk in the forest, and surround the containers you put them in with stones from a nearby river or creek. Make a bouquet out of local plants and flowers for a locavore touch!
Wedding bands are a vital part of the wedding, as they help to signify the joining of two parties. Make sure that on the days leading up to the wedding and on the wedding itself to have someone who you can count on keep track of your wedding bands to ensure security.
When you walk down the aisle on the day of your wedding, make sure that you smile as often as possible. All eyes are going to be on you as you will want to look as happy and excited as possible in one of the biggest moments of your entire life.
Choose whether or not you’re going to wear pantyhose with your wedding dress early so you can order a luxurious pair of silk hose in your size. This is your special day, so you deserve to wear the best! Including a pair of stockings which are silky soft and gorgeous will make you feel even more confident in front of the crowd.
Put a lot of thought into the seating chart that you create for your wedding. Make sure that the elderly do not have to travel a long way to get to their seat and that your family is close to you. Also, try to have the members of each family sit with each other.
For brides-to-be, it is important not to gain any weight before the big day. You have already been sized for your dress and weight gain can cause your dress to have to be altered, which could be impossible. Try not to eat bad foods and exercise as much as you can in the months before your wedding.
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.
If you are getting married, and you do not know how to dance, you may want to consider taking dance lessons. All eyes are going to be on you during the reception, especially during the first dance, and you want to make sure that you leave a good impression on your guests.
If you want to save money on your destination wedding, have your honeymoon in the same location! You can usually get a great deal on the hotel for a longer stay, and you’ll only have to do research on the place that you’ve selected for your wedding. This will also give you more time to relax as you won’t be scurrying to the airport to get on your plane.
Using these tips, you should be able to plan your wedding with a minimal amount of stress and almost none of the hassles. It is perfectly natural to have a little stress, but to be consumed by stress over wedding plans, is completely unnecessary and not a good way to begin a lifetime with your partner.
