Creating Your Wedding: From Bridesmaids To Candy Buffets

A Big Event

Your wedding might be the biggest, most important event in your life. Even if it doesn’t end up being so world-shifting, it will alter the course of your life substantially. You want to take it seriously, and you want to enjoy the experience. One of the best ways to do this will simply be to plan as far in advance as you can.

Ideally, you want to start planning for the wedding about nine months out from the event itself. If you can manage a year, excellent! There are some things that will be better acquired so far in advance. You’ll have a better choice in affordable venues, you can get the right officiant involved, you can get all the invitations sent out, choose a hotel for the family—the list goes on.

These things take time and can be stressful. Enlist family members; they’re part of this thing anyway! Double down on your wedding by making it event which brings those closest to you in your life together. And be very careful about the bridesmaids you choose! You want your closest friends and confidants with you. Over the next year, you’ll be spending a lot of time together!

Dresses And Candy

As you look at the ceremony itself, you want to consider the sorts of themes you’re going to go for, what kind of entertainment you’ll be bringing to the reception, and what food options will look like. Open bars are always fun, though expensive. Additionally, the candy buffet is becoming increasingly popular. It’s a very cost-effective way to spice up the party and induce festivity at any age level. And you can match your candy buffet to any color theme, too.

Consider the costuming of the bride and groom as well. What sort of suit cuts will characterize the men? What kind of dress will the bride wear? What will be the theme of the bridesmaids? And where will you get dresses? It’s no good if you can only find half the dresses you need in the right size. You want something that will cover all your bases.

Expense Considerations
