Wedding Wednesday Tip from the Pros

How to Choose the Best Wedding Dress?

Perhaps the most difficult part of wedding planning for any bride-to-be is choosing her dress. Bride has an expectation level to be met, because she has been thinking about her wedding and her dress for many years and she goes shopping with great expectations of finding the best dress. But the truth is that there is no such thing as a perfect wedding dress. A dress that looks great on you and one that makes you feel good, dress that is going to be suitable for the occasion, one that will fit your budget and that is going to make your mom happy is the best wedding dress.

Wedding Wednesday Tip from the Pros

{via}
Out-of-State Couples

If you are an out of state couple who desires an outdoor wedding in NJ, take note! Make certain your 'alternate location in the event of rain' is in the same municipality where the hoped for beach or outdoor location is or your ceremony will be declared null and void. It may surprise you to know that locations across the street from one another can be in different municipalities, and even restaurants and inns may straddle two municipalities within their own walls. Make sure you have verified this at the time of applying for your marriage license or you will be headed for heartache and headaches.

This is not an issue with NJ couples however, who may marry anywhere within the state as result of a change of plans.

Favor Inspiration Friday !

Its little surprise that snowflakes are symbolic of the winter season and the cold. Because no two of these lovely ice crystals are the same, they also represent individuality, and their perfect geometric forms represent perfection.
A snowflake symbolizes serenity, peace and tranquility. The clear glassy and clean formation of such little phenomina also symbolize purity.

Wedding Wednesday Tip from the Pros

Coordinating Your Vendors

Do

1) Keep a list of all your vendors details such as name(s), contacts, addresses – all in a single folder or book. Also, we suggest that you key in their numbers in your cell phone. That way, you don’t have to whip our your file in case of emergency! Also, do make sure you are friendly to your vendors because they are your point of contact for your event.

2) Follow up monthly or anytime a transaction does take place. This is to ensure that everyone is on a same page whether it is about payment, venue, etc. This is to avoid all possibilities of any disputes or discrepancies. Bottom line, just make sure to reply to any emails/calls if a vendor does call and not leave it to the last minute! The last thing you need is to find out that your florist can’t supply hydrangeas the day before your event when she’s been trying to get hold of you.

3) Call up and confirm exact time and date via phone and email. Although you might have relay the responsibility to a certain person, ie: maid of honor, etc, we believe it doesn’t hurt to just give a ring to your vendors to confirm all time and date. After all, it IS your event and no one holds more responsibility than you.

Don’t

1) Ignore any of your vendor phone calls. Sometimes a vendor might have called you while you are at work, but do not forget to return their calls after work. There must be an important reason why your vendor is calling.

2) Simply trust that they know everything. You may be planning your only event, but do understand that your vendor has a list of other events on their book. Although it is their duty to ensure all of your event details are taken care of, it is still your duty to provide all details and stay in the same page. Bottom line is, do not assume that your vendor knows all the specifics of your events. Provide all the information you can and again, follow up.

3) Throw away receipts and contracts until all payments are finalized after the event. Most of the time, there are bound to be extra charges incurred for last minute additions. By keeping your receipts and contracts, you have exact proof from both sides shall any dispute arises.
