Plan Your Own Wedding And Save Money
May 7th, 2010
The question was finally popped and you said yes! Congratulations and now the fun begins. From now on always carry a pen and notebook with you so jot down ideas or make a check list while you are waxing your legs.
If you are planning your own wedding day you need to know a few things before you barge ahead. Because it is such a romantic day filled with feelings and emotions for both you and your groom. Granted the days running up to a wedding can be nightmarish but it will be worth it in the end.
Yes woman can become army generals if they have to, when it comes to planning their wedding day. Remember that you need to first makes sure you have a venue confirmed for the ceremony and the reception. Here you don’t want to spend too much money, but also your venue needs to be pretty, well maintained and big enough to accommodate all your guests.
Now you need to start concentrating on your invitation cards. It is the first thing a guest will see and will either impress or raise eyebrows. You don’t want them to remember a bad invitation. Rather spend an extra few dollars and choose an elegant and classy looking one. This will set the tone for your wedding guests.
Next you need to spend a lot of time having your dress made or buying one. Either way do refrain from overdoing it with crystals and frills and layers of net. It does tend to put on kilos and is also out of fashion in today’s wedding features. A lace wedding dress is pure elegance and can be styled to your figure. It states sophistication and mystery, coupled with romance and love. What better way to meet your new husband than to float down the isle with a satin and lace.
Should you have bridesmaids, you need to dress them in a color that will compliment your dress and not the decor of your entertainment area. Many brides make the mistake in this area, because they think that because their color them is white and orange, that the bridesmaid dress must also be orange. No it is not true and you can rather choose an understated color like cream or beige to match your dress beautifully.
Thank them by presenting each with jewelry pendants to wear with their lace dresses. They will be so surprised by your gesture of friendship. It will be really appreciated and it is a way to have your special memory of your wedding day live on in someone else’s memories as well.
