Choosing Your Wedding Party

Many brides struggle with deciding which friends to have in their wedding party. Here are a few tips to make it a little easier. Consider the size of your guest list when deciding on the number of bridesmaids you want. If you’re having a small, intimate wedding, you don’t want the bridal party to be almost as big as the guest list. And if you’re on a tight budget, don’t forget that you will be paying for each of their bouquets. Remember, that just because you were in someone’s wedding, they do not have to be in yours. You can always have other close friends do readings or hand out programs. True friends will understand if they are not asked to be a bridesmaid!

Drink Up!

When planning the drinks for your wedding, don't forget to think about the children attending and the guests who will choose not to drink alcohol. A simple way to accommodate them is to make a self serve drink bar with a few different drinks. You can set up containers with drinks like lemonade, punch, and sweet tea, something that everyone can enjoy. This way, there are not extra people around the bar and everyone can quench their thirst! Here are a few pictures we found for some ideas.

Why hire a planner?

A lot of girls are so excited to begin planning their wedding but quickly realize they don't know where to start. From linens, flowers, catering, rentals, music and photographers there are so many things to think about. People don't realize how many different vendors come together for a wedding and it can get a little overwhelming. That is where your planner comes to the rescue. Your planner will be there to guide you in the right direction with the best vendors around and ensure that you do not overpay for anything. It takes all the stress away and you can just enjoy being engaged and your wedding day!
