A beach wedding can come in many forms; you don’t really have to limit yourself to a beach location to hold the wedding you’re aiming for. You can easily compensate with accessories, theme variations and decor.

Playing around with Themes

Aside from the obvious beach and coastline location, what comes to your mind when you think about a beach wedding? For example, if you’ve always wanted a wedding reception by the beach under the stars, you can always book an outdoor wedding and pick a clear and starry night to hold your reception.

If lighthouses remind you of the beach, you can play around with a lighthouse theme for your wedding. If you can rent an old lighthouse in your vicinity, then by all means, go for it. If that’s not possible, you can always pick a secluded area (if possible near the ocean) and play around with the motif.

You can even consider mermaid or fairy themes for your wedding, both of which have proven popular with many brides. A nautical-inspired theme complete with yachting decor, wooden boardwalks and sand can also be done, without having to poke a hole through your wallet.

 
You have invested so much of yourself, your time and your money to plan the perfect wedding. Why not hire a professional to ensure that everything runs smoothly and actually enjoy your day.

When it comes right down to it, should getting married really be an expensive affair? To be honest, it all depends on how you want your wedding to be like, who you want to be part of it (are you looking to invite your immediate family, or the whole neighbourhood?) and where you want it to take place.

Being on a budget however, shouldn’t hinder your chances of having your dream wedding. While it’s true you’ll have to cut corners in order to make things work, you can still have the wedding you’ve always wanted. Here are some tips to help you get started.

• Wedding packages are where the action is at. There are some great hotels and venues that offer wedding packages to brides and grooms to be. For a wedding not to look tacky—which is often the case with such packages—you’ll have to compensate by careful planning and tons of customization.

• Ditch wedding planners and have a team of friends and family help you with your wedding. Not only will this save money—you can negotiate payment terms if you’re worried about being called cheap—it’s also easier for people who know you to understand what you have in mind.

• Do your homework. The Internet is teeming with wedding advice—this site alone should be enough for your needs. Get your ideas and adjust them according to your present needs. From the flowers, theme, entertainment and dress, there are plenty of ways for you to save without compromising quality.

Remember that it’s foolish to place too much emphasis on the beginning of your marriage. Having good memories about your wedding is great, but what good is a fancy wedding if the marital commitments and vows aren’t kept over the long run?

 
Why not book an hour with Karen to go over your wedding details and timeline and make sure that everything has been looked after? Or for additional reassurance book Karen’s “Style of the Day” package. This includes meeting with you beforehand to go over all your details, contacting your vendors to confirm set-ups and deliveries and then actually being on-site the day of your wedding to ensure everything is happening as planned and smoothing out any wrinkles that may arise.

When you think of Spring weddings, we’re guessing that the first that comes into your mind are all different sorts of blooming flowers, bursts of warm and vibrant colours, and of course, a re-emergence of life all over. Many wedding planners like the Spring because it’s the season where many flowers bloom naturally, including daisies, lilies, daffodils and tulips. March and April brides typically go for yellow and lavender pastels, as well as eye-pleasing combinations like red and darker shades of pink, as well as pink and green. You can even go for a totally pink look (albeit in different shades) to create a stunning effect.

For themes, you can go for butterflies and cherry blossoms. If you or your partner has Irish ancestry, you can also draw inspiration from St. Paddy’s Day.

Remember that these are just suggestions for themes and colours, so if you plan to do hold a wedding in some exotic destination outside North America, you’ll have to do a lot more work, with more factors to take into account. Although we think the suggestions above are perfect for the Spring months, there’s no reason why they can’t be used during any time of the year.

You need to know a lot of things about the ceremony itself, at the same time you need to know every bit of detail about the couple that will be celebrating holy matrimony. However, wedding industry insiders already have enough knowledge on how to work things at a wedding to make it run as smooth as silk. Check out some of these wedding planning tips to help celebrate one of the most memorable events of your life.

First thing you need to consider is the number of guests attending at the reception. You probably won’t have the exact number of guests but it’s always good to have an estimate. This will help you on how many tables and chairs you need at the reception. Another is when you book a florist, make sure to sign a contract on the minimum number of centerpieces you need rather than signing for the maximum number.

For the food at the reception, know that it is not entirely always true to have a buffet dinner. Caterers know that a lot of food is wasted at buffet dinners. They will serve enough food accordingly. Also, it is better and more cost efficient to have a brunch reception, either buffet or plated, rather than having a dinner reception.

Planning your wedding could be exhausting but it should also be fun and exciting. Consider these simple wedding planning tips to make your wedding special.
