Are you planning your special wedding day? Do you want to take some of the stress and anxiety out of the process? Who doesn’t! In this article we will discuss some of the best tips and tricks from the pros. Read on and learn how to make your day everything you want it to be.
It’s a nice gift to give the groom his own little cake. Have the cake designer make it resemble his favorite hobbies, like carpentry or football. If it’s a surprise it will be even more meaningful to him! Just make sure that the cake itself tastes good – a wedding cake that looks gorgeous but tastes bad will not leave a good memory.
You don’t have to spend a lot of money to have a great wedding. Many churches and religious buildings charge nominal or no fee at all. If you keep your guest list small, and avoid a meal time wedding, you can pull off a spectacular event on a very small budget.
The day before you have your wedding, you should pamper yourself as much as possible by going to a spa for a massage. This will allow you to reduce the stress and tension of the days leading up to your wedding so that you feel more comfortable walking down the aisle.
If you are a bride, you should treat the groomsmen to a professional shave and haircut, the day before the wedding. This will ensure that they look as sharp as possible, so that everything is aesthetically beautiful at your wedding. Proper grooming is essential to maximize the look of the important components to your wedding.
If you wish to appear absolutely beautiful on your wedding day yet you need to control costs, think of renting diamonds. This can help you to look more stunning while not breaking the bank so you can stick to the budget you have created.
Understand that the wedding ceremony is the most important part of the day and that the reception is just the celebration of this ceremony. Put a lot of thought into the readings that will be done at your wedding and where you would like to have your reception. This will optimize your overall experience.
Only place a few flowers in the centerpieces at your reception tables. Often, flowers just get in your guests’ way. Plus, a few of your guests could have flower allergies that you were not aware of. Think about putting candles that aren’t scented onto the table. This can create a romantic look.
Between your ceremony and your reception there can be a long down-time for your guests. If they can’t be seated at their tables right away, choose a venue that has a bar or lounge available for them to hang out in while they wait for the guests of honor to arrive.
If you’re going to have children at your wedding, consider them when you choose your menu. If the items you really want to have aren’t palatable to children, include some child-friendly items in a quantity that matches the number of children attending in your order to your caterer so they will be considered, too. Don’t forget drinks!
Give the children who attend your wedding some responsibility to keep them occupied. If they have to guard the ring with their life, or count how many people come in the doors, they’ll have something to do and it should keep the boredom at bay. They may need to have different tasks to keep occupied, though, as they could become tedious.
Stress and anxiety are a regular part of wedding planning, right? Wrong! As we have discussed in this article, the planning process for your special day doesn’t have to feel miserable. You can make the planning process easier, and your special day more memorable, if you just follow our simple tips.
