Wedding Tip #3 ~ Lower Wedding Dress Cost
Bridal party dresses can be an expensive proposition.
You can save money by shopping in non-bridal stores at prom time when sales of formal wear are on.
|
If the bride wants to wear a dress in the same style as her bridesmaids, remember that most bridal shops will charge a premium for bridesmaid dresses that are white.
Wedding Tip #4 ~ You Have To Eat!
Everybody eats on the wedding day. Everybody!
Stress and excitement might curb your appetite on the big day, but it's essential that everybody in the wedding party and the parents of the bride and groom eat something.
|
Keep it simple and not too hard on your digestive system - bagels, muffins, fruit, mild cheeses, maybe some cold meat slices for making a sandwich, some cookies or banana bread, water... etc. You must eat.
Make sure this food is readily available at the place where the bride and her attendants gather as well as where the groom and his attendants gather.
Be realistic in your food intake to avoid nausea and car sickness on the way to the ceremony, but we don't want anyone passing out from lack of food just before the "I do's" either!
That's the "Voice of experience speaking", since I didn't eat that day and I fainted at my sister's wedding many years ago.
Eat!
Wedding Tip #5 ~ Whoops! What about the weather?
Plan for the weather if you're taking pictures outside.
If it's a hot day, make sure that your picture-taking venue has shade and a cooler filled with water. Sun stroke and heat exhaustion before the dancing starts is not a good thing.
|
If rain clouds threaten, some good-sized golf umbrellas at the ready might avoid soggy bridal wear. And, if rain threatans, where will the alternate venue for pictures be?
If it's chilly and the bridesmaids are in strapless, sleeveless gowns, have some shawls or throws on hand to toss over their shoulders while they wait for pictures
