The exact duties that a bride and groom need help with depend on how elaborate the wedding is, as well as what their personalities are. A very organized bride may prefer to handle most of the planning tasks herself, while a bride who isn't detail-oriented may ask her bridal party to take on more responsibilities. To avoid confusion about what you expect from your bridal party and family members, the wedding Website The Knot suggests sending out a newsletter or email that breaks down the responsibilities for each person. Be sure to stress how much you appreciate everyone's help, so no one feels like she's being ordered around.
Ask for Cash for Wedding Gifts
Asking for cash as a wedding gift can be touchy, particularly when it comes to etiquette-conscious or older guests, who may not feel comfortable giving anything other than a traditional wedding gift. However, careful wording, wedding-themed gift cards and strictly cash registries can help most wedding guests feel comfortable giving cash as a gift.
Get Married at The Courthouse
Most people want a nice wedding, especially if it's your first one. However, if it's your 2nd, 3rd, or 4th you might want to save time and money by going to the courthouse. Here are the steps to getting married at the courthouse.
Adapt Your Makeup for Your Wedding Day
Your every blush, smile and kiss will be recorded on film, so your bridal makeup needs to be picture perfect. It should cover any imperfections and highlight your features, while appearing subtle and pretty. Venue and event time play key roles; you'll want to adjust your makeup for day or evening and for indoor or outdoor lighting. Does this Spark an idea?
Take in a Wedding Dress Bust
Your wedding dress will be at the center of your big event. It's important that it fits you properly, especially through the bust. Whether you are wearing a strapless ball gown or a sleeved cocktail dress for your wedding, you can alter the bust to fit your individual shape. Does this Spark an idea?
