How To Plan Your Wedding
Imagine planning your wedding all by yourself? How scary, how tormenting, the mere thought must make your stomach turn. Do not do it to yourself. Seek help. Let your family and friends help.
Financing The Wedding
The old rule of the bride’s parents pay for the wedding is just that, old and outdated. The new and improved, smart and practical way to finance a wedding is that everyone chips in. The only downside is that everyone that invests in your wedding has a say.
The Big Invite
When it comes to the wedding invitations, keep it simple. It is polite to allow your guests to bring their significant other. It is also a good idea to let guests who only know you or your future hubby bring a guest with them.
You do not want some stranger ruining your big day. Keep it simple. Invite guests and allow them to bring their significant other. The only exception would be a friend that won’t know anyone at the wedding.
Wedding Gifts
Now on to the wedding gifts. It is customary to bring a gift for the bride and groom. And if you don’t want to end up with 20 toaster ovens, 3 bread makers, and a homemade quilt from grandma you better register for what you want.
Get a new pair of skiis. How about hotel reservations? Honeymoon anyone? Chances are you already have a ton of house wares to get you and hubby off to a great start, so ask away.
The Dress
They say it is all downhill after the dress, but what a steep incline a wedding dress can be. Do not let it be. If you stick to the old-fashioned bride in white, it will be easy, simple, and boring. Why would you want that?
Be bold. Be creative. Look through magazines. Visit wedding dress stores. Get ideas. Try on dresses. Pick three you like. Ask your most trusted advisers which you should go with.
