A wedding is easily one of the most memorable occasions in the human experience. The loving relationship at the core of a wedding has a great deal to do with its memorability, of course, but careful planning and hard work make a huge difference, too. Here are a few tips that can help make a wedding even more memorable:
To ensure you have photos of everyone in attendance at your wedding, have a photo booth set up right next to your guest book. Photo booth rentals are readily available and can be set up in a variety of ways, usually with the help of the booth operator, who will assist your guests and guide them into making some memorable pictures for your photo guest book. When the photo has been developed, the attendant can put the picture into an album and have the guest sign it with their congratulatory wishes. You can also choose to have two sets of photos printed so you can give your guests one as a little remembrance of your special event.
Universal online registry services allow couples to add items to their registries from virtually any online retailer. This is a great way to make purchasing gifts convenient for your loved ones; friends and family can use their preferred credit cards to make purchases, take advantage of online promotions, and shop for the best prices.
If you are not having a church wedding, consider targeting an outdoor venue. Beaches and parks may offer an environment that makes your wedding day perfect and at a reduced cost. Another benefit to this type of venue is the ability to offer ample room for guests. Consider outside venues that offer indoor facilities in the case of inclement weather.
Call the hotels which are local to your wedding venue to see if they have group rates and bulk availability of rooms for out-of-town guests, and the bride if she so chooses, at least six months in advance. Calling this early can get you some excellent discounts, especially if you put some money down at the same time.
If someone you know is willing to be ordained online, they can then preside over your wedding. This adds a personal touch to your ceremony, and also saves you on the costs of an officiant. Before committing to this plan, check your local ordinances to make sure that it is not against the law in your area.
Buying locally can save you tons of money and help your community’s economy, too. Choosing local vendors means you won’t be charged for the extra distance they have to travel, which is especially important when it comes to catering. Using a local florist also means that you will receive a fresh bouquet on your wedding day.
Every wedding is special and unique – even more so than the two people whose union calls for the occasion. Many people contribute to a truly memorable wedding in ways great and small. This article offers just a few humble suggestions to assist the whole loving community of helpers that do their part to put together a great wedding.
