10 Wedding Tips

1. Watch How Much You Spend

• Your guests aren't going to ask you how much you spent on china and catering
• Set a budget and stick to it
• Write down what's most important to you, making sure you will look your very best on the big day
• Plan far enough in advance so that you can have the wedding you want
  
  2. Make It Fun
  
  
• Whether you want a traditional or funky modern wedding, you know each other's quirks and personalities - make sure these shine through on your day
  
  3. Don't Just Use Anyone
  
  
• Whether its your DJ, your caterer or your make-up, get to know the people you will use
  
  4. Check The Weather
  
  
• A beautiful outfit and look could be spoiled by a windy rainy day, so plan for the weather - if its going to be bad think about taking your beauty and hair stylist with you
  
  5. The Flowers
  
  
• Since flowers are typically 15% of the overall wedding budget, you can save money by intermingling silk flowers
  
  6. A Very Green Wedding
  
  
• Instead of traditional favours, give your guests native seedlings which they can take home, plant, and remember your special day as they watch it grow
  
  7. The Cake
  
  
• A lot of grooms get really excited about the cake - so remember to let your future husband have a say
  
  8. Keep In Touch
  
• From wedding lists to changes to arrangements, make sure your guests know exaclty what's happening - consider setting up your own wedding website for the event of the year
  
  9. The Grand Entrance
  
  
• At the reception, plan for a Grand Entrance - with your favourite music playing as you enter the reception, you can set the tone and prepare your guests for the most memorable party of the year
  
  10. ENJOY YOUR WEDDING DAY!!
