Many people have thought long and hard about their wedding day. Down to the tiny details such as the dress, the hair and even the colors of the flowers. Preparing a wedding, no matter how exciting, can leave you feeling overwhelmed if you don't have the right info.

When you're getting plans together for your wedding, consider the types of alcoholic beverages you're going to be serving. Also be aware of the cost. Open bars are typically very expensive, especially when they are open for long time-periods. If holding the wedding at an outside venue, they may have alcohol serving options available that can control costs.

If you're taking care of the food yourself, shop at a wholesale store, like Costco. This will enable you to save a lot of money. See if your friends can chip in for food costs.

For a more reasonably priced wedding, consider a date that's not in the traditional wedding season. Wedding season runs from May through September. You can expect to pay more if you schedule your wedding during this time. If you must book during this period, schedule many months in advance to save money.

If you have a destination wedding and your family is there, see if they want to stay for the honeymoon. Many hotels will reduce their prices for extended stay vacations as opposed to just staying for the wedding itself. This will help give them a vacation they'll never forget as well!

Flowers are great, but don't place too many of them on your tables or they can become tacky. Much of the time, table arrangements will just be in the guests' way. In addition, some guests could be allergic to flowers. Try putting some scent free candles on your wedding tables.

You can save a lot of money by purchasing cupcakes or mini tarts rather than a large tiered wedding cake. Many people like these sorts of arrangements because they are convenient, versatile and affordable. Guests can just grab one or two cupcakes on their way out, putting them inside an embellished cardboard box.

During your wedding planning, arrange for even numbers of guests at each table. Group people at tables by age so that common ground for conversations exists.

If one of your friends or relatives becomes ordained over the Internet, he or she can preside over your wedding ceremony. This makes the wedding a bit more personal, and also means you don't have to pay the fee for a justice of the peace. First, make sure your area allows this to happen.

You may want to consider a wedding aboard a cruise ship. This will allow you to enjoy your honeymoon as soon as the festivities are over. Many cruise companies offer a special rate for a combined wedding/honeymoon package.

This can be as simple as having a modern fusion menu that includes popular dishes. Add a twist with ethnic dessert options, drinks, or edible wedding favors.

Using this advice will make it easier to plan your wedding day without stress. You may even be able to enjoy the planning process once you know where to begin.
