First Things First: Deciding Upon A Date
You have announced your engagement, now you need to settle upon a date for the desired event. Firstly, you should determine the time of year you wish to have your wedding.
- Will this time of year best fit into the plans and work schedule of you and your groom?
- Perhaps, you have a special date that is meaningful to you and/or your groom.
- If you have a honeymoon location in mind, be sure this would be an ideal time of year to go there.
- If you have a color scheme in mind for your wedding decor and bridal party attire, this may help you narrow your choice for season and vice versa.
- Have you allowed yourself enough time to schedule the wedding of your dreams?
Okay, you have a proposed date in mind, now you will want to consult:
- Important family and friends to avoid scheduling conflicts
- Desired Ceremony/ Reception site for availability
- Desired clergy or ceremony officiator for availability
Once a date is settled on, you will need to create a calendar for you and your groom to organize your time and insure all important aspects of your wedding are appropriately addressed.

PLANNING TIP #66

|
Here's a great (and cost effective) alternative for a corsage... have the mothers' carry a single rose wrapped in tulle or ribbon. It looks beautiful and elegant as they walk down the aisle AND they don't have to worry about where to pin it or if it will leave a hole in their dress!
