If you are planning a wedding, you probably have many questions. Wedding planning should be fun, and you don’t want to be stuck stressing out about your big day. That is why this advice is available to show you a few tips to avoid unnecessary stress.
Internet bridal shops have wedding dresses for bargain basement prices, but make sure to order well in advance so that you can get your dress altered before the big day. It is perfectly possible to purchase a gown for a few hundred dollars and have it altered for as little as $200. Keep in mind any additional costs, and include it in your budget.
Do not go on a crash diet to fit in the dress. Like any athlete will tell you, too much weight loss too quickly can result in being light-headed and dehydrated. You don’t want to faint as you’re saying your I do’s! Buy a dress that allows you to make adjustments when the wedding date comes.
Really consider your vows, as this is one of the central parts of a wedding ceremony. Keep in mind that getting married is a commitment that might require some sacrifices. Use your vows to publicly declare the love and dedication you feel for your beloved.
Instead of one large, expensive wedding cake, consider serving cupcakes or several small cakes. For example, cupcakes can be made to be gluten-free, topped with fruit, or include artificial sweeteners.
Even if your gut tells you otherwise, you should never commit to a wedding photographer without considering several other options. You wouldn’t want bad wedding pictures. It is smart to look online for user reviews of photographers or seek personal recommendations from those you trust.
Fashionable brides who love the look of luxury may wish to glam up their bouquets with sparkling embellishments like rhinestones, Swarovski crystals, or even diamonds. Doing this isn’t difficult. It works with adhesive crystals, costume jewelry, and expensive antique jewelry. To ensure that it coordinates with the rest of your ensemble, be consistent in terms of sparkling colors, cut, and size of the stones.
Brides should take the time to practice walking in their wedding shoes and dress so that they will be comfortable and graceful on their big day. Go with flats if you’re worried about twisting an ankle. Having less than sexy footwear is an easy trade-off for not falling on your derriere!
Do not plan a destination wedding without taking the legal requirements of your location into account. Don’t be surprised at the last minute by unknown regulations, red tape or fees that you did not expect.
Add a little depth to your flower arrangements by using flowers and elements that are different heights. Obviously you want the low profile florals in the shorter vases, while the long and more spectacular flowers, like roses, should be in taller containers. You can surround these tall vases with short voluminous flowers like pink sweet peas, peonies, or hydrangeas. The shorter flowers should have more prominent blooms and be more lightly colored.
Are you planning on inviting children to your wedding, and how many are there going to be? If you don’t allow children, you may be able to save money and avoid stress. On the other hand, some people may be unable to attend because they can’t find anyone to babysit.
Floral Arrangements
Your wedding venue should play a role in decisions about your theme, decor, and floral arrangements. Elaborately detailed floral arrangements and displays can be very striking indoors but lose their majesty in the windy weather. You may also need fasteners to ensure decorations don’t fly away at places like parks or beaches.
Plan ahead of time, as early as you are able. You may think that one year is plenty of time to get a wedding planned, however waiting will result in venues and services will become more expensive or unavailable due to short notice. Start your planning early on so that you have more options available.
So, now you have a head start on planning for your big day. Enjoy the whole planning process as this should not be stressful.
