Wedding planning tipsPlanning your weddingYour wedding day is the most important day of your life and you want to make sure that everything is right and goes off without a hitch; here are some important tips that can help you to achieve your dream wedding. * Start preparing for your wedding day from the moment you get engaged. * Talk with your partner about the type of wedding you both want, for example formal, informal, church or register office wedding. * Take your time and think about when you want the wedding, to take place, which part of the year and the time. * Once you have decided on the time of year and date and have booked the wedding choose the reception venue and book it early. * Weddings are expensive so work together in setting a realistic budget. * Makes sure that everyone knows exactly what they are expected to be paying for. * Consider purchasing wedding insurance to cover any unforeseen events on the big day. * Compile a guest list well beforehand, working out the cost will help you to decide on a buffet or sit down meal. * Involve both sets of parents when discussing seating arraignments at the reception this can avoid potential clashes with relatives. * Start looking for your wedding dress well in advance its surprising how long this can take even if you have an idea of what you want. * Take into account the colour of your skin when choosing your wedding dress, if your skin is really pale then maybe you would look better in ivory than white. * Even if you have your sights set on a particular style of dress try on other styles too, a dress in a book or hanger often looks much better when tried on. * Consider hiring a wedding dress instead of buying one, remember you are only going to be wearing it once and they are expensive. * Plan on what you are going to use for the old tradition something old, something new, something borrowed and something blue. * Shop early for bridesmaid dresses its important that if your bridesmaids vary a lot in ages that you find something suitable for them all. * Once you have chosen your wedding dress buy any lingerie that you intend to wear on the wedding day and wear it to any fittings to ensure your dress fits perfectly. * Shop around for photographers making sure that you see examples of their work and that they can provide you with exactly what you are looking for. * Choose a colour scheme for the whole wedding including bridesmaid dresses and flowers. * Visit florists and make sure they know your colour scheme and that you see examples. * Book wedding transport early making sure they know the time and any colour scheme for the car decorations. * Shop around for wedding cakes making sure the company knows exactly what you want and where to deliver the cake to. * Choose your wedding invitations and make sure you know how many you will want and order a few more than needed, make sure the company gets the spelling of any unusual names right.
