Don't Dread Planning Your Big Wedding Day
A wedding planning session can take quite a bit out of most people. From selecting flowers to selecting attire, most people expect to only do this once. The tips presented are there to help you plan out all details concerning your wedding, no matter what type of venue you choose.

If you decide to handle the food for your wedding, Costco and other wholesale stores are the way to go. If you shop at a wholesale store, you will get much more for your dollar than the regular supermarket. You may even ask for help with food costs from family or friends.

If you decide to cater your own wedding party, go to the big wholesale stores, like Costco. This is no secret but buying your foods from the big club stores will save quite a bit of money over retail grocery chains and that is considering the membership charge. Think about asking friends to assist with the food costs.

Your wedding photos will contain the memories of a lifetime. It might cost a littler extra to do so, but hire yourself a professional photographer so that on your big day you can get the quality of photographs you desire for your momentous occasion.

Have your wedding on the property of a family member or friend. For example, a large backyard could be the perfect setting, and you will save a lot of money this way. Saving money on the venue will allow you to hire people to set up and clean up.

This may seem like a minor factor, but many couples like dimming the lights for a first dance, and switching to brighter lights for the remainder of the event. Inquire about the lighting with the venue, prior to signing any contracts.

You don't need a big, expensive, flashy wedding cake. Talk to your local bakery owner about something smaller, or pre-cut into individual portions. Many bakeries can provide wedding cupcakes that come in at 100 calories or less per serving. Other healthier options include gluten-free pastries, no-calorie sweeteners, and icing alternatives, such as meringue or fruit spreads.

This person might be a dedicated friend or family member; he or she will be tasked with toting your gear. They can also help get together family members for group shots!

Vacation goody baskets make great delivery presents to guests at your destination wedding. You can include tidbits like tourist maps, sunglasses, novelty towels or even information on nearby attractions. Another nice gesture is to include a restaurant guide, since people do need to eat after all.

When you plan your seating arrangements for your wedding, be sure that the number of guests at each table is even. Also group tables by age, to help them find things to talk about.

If you are planning on serving multiple courses, keep guests entertained during serving with tiny portions of sweet appetizers near each guest. Flavorful crackers will get the job done well.
