Wedding Planning Stage One (from our blog page Oct. 13/14) So now you are engaged and your are so anxious to put your dreams into reality. You are down to the Wedding Planning. But wait, dont go too fast. Those years of dreaming were just that, a dream. Now here today, your are down to reality and the real stuff. The castle with the carriage ride are just not affordable or real. So lets deal with what you can afford to do for your wedding event. What people in the wedding industry talk and write about over and over again...Budget. Small word but oh with such big meaning. And believe me they arent talking and writing for nothing. They are talking and writing from experience because they have seen couples go into debt way over their heads to accomplish that unattainable wedding dream. It is so important to Be Realistic when it comes to planning your wedding. Talk with your fiancee and start with a dollar figure that you both can handle. If parents are involved with paying for the wedding make sure you know just how much they are going to pay for in dollars. There are so many ways of accomplishing The Look that you want today with DYIs or through help on Pintrest. Also stay within your relationship and your life interest. If you are campers, hikers, boaters and enjoy the outdoors dont go looking for a big hotel venue downtown. Look for something more meaningful to you both. Rent a camp ground, a state park or a boat club for the wedding. Have the wedding ceremony under the trees maybe at dusk with lite candle jars hanging from the trees. Maybe at a shelter in the state park or on the grounds of the yacht club. Get wedding ideas online and from a ton of books. Talk to your Wedding Officiant and include different traditions that will suit the location of your wedding ceremony. As a wedding tradition include Planting a Tree, or release butterflies or flying Chinese lanterns . If your interests are more on the intellectual side rent a college hall that has something that you both love, telescopes, library, etc. People who know you will appreciate the fact that you are celebrating in a place that is more YOU than the popular wedding venue downtown that isnt YOU at all. If you start with a $ value, include your personal interest and your relationship you stand a much better chance of having a wedding that everyone, including yourselves, will be happy with the outcome. Good Luck!
