Tips
& Guidelines
Additional Help...In
orchestrating a event as special as a wedding, you cannot get too
much help! A great local association of Wedding Professionals is
available for the California Central Coast - the Central Coast Wedding
Professionals (CCWP). Learn more about them here.
Bridal Faires...Bridal
Faires are a great place to begin your research when planning your
wedding or any other large event. Meet, compare, and screen all
of the wedding professionals who will play a part in your celebration.
Plan to attend several fairs since they each offer a variety of
opportunities. For more on Bridal Faires and the schedule of SLO
County Bridal Faires, click here.
Beauty Tips....On
her wedding day, every Bride wants to look her very best. For some,
this can be done as simply as having her hair and make up completed
by a professional. Some of us, however, want to take this a step
further - teeth
whitening, tanning, slimming & toning, facials
or microdermabrasion, makeovers, massages, maybe even that lasik
surgery you have been considering. There will never be a better
time to pamper
yourself!
Special Touches...You
want your guests to feel comfortable and have a great time. But
at your wedding, you cannot personally keep everyone entertained.
Special
Entertainment, such as a magic show or games
for the children can enliven your guest's evening. In addition,
there are numerous other Ideas
that can Make Your Wedding Distinctive.
Photography & Videography
Notes...Brides can now choose between
film or digital photography, or both. Is digital
photography right for you? Most of us are
unfamiliar with the nuances of how to choose a Videographer. Here
are some questions
to ask when shopping.
Responsibilities & Obligations...While
times have changed and wedding plans need not follow a rigid traditional
plan anymore, it is still important to know the traditional roles
and be selective at how you vary from them. Wedding cost is a very
important item in planning...who
traditionally pays for what? Your
Attendants are honored by being chosen to participate in your wedding,
but what are the
Attendants traditional responsibilities? And what
about the Bachelor
Party? Another aspect of 21st century weddings
is that many wedding guests travel great distances. What can you
do to make
their visit more enjoyable?
Other Details...Getting
married is something at which most non-professionals have little
experience. How DOES one go about getting a Marriage
License, and doesn't it require a blood test?
What about publishing an engagement
or wedding announcement in the newspaper? And finally,
when you are busy with so many other details of planning your wedding,
reception, honeymoon, be sure to save yourself a lot of hassle down
the road and Change
Your Address sooner rather
than later!
Wedding Day Tips...You'll
be surprised at the things you will need on hand on your wedding
day. Here is a check list of things
to bring with you on your
wedding day.
