Wedding Planning Timeline

Getting married in 2 months on Maui, and need to pick out our flowers. We are getting married on the beach. Our accent color is turquoise. Any beautiful suggestions?  

I’m looking at flowers for my wedding & I’m having a black & white wedding with a splash of hot pink. What are the nicest type flowers to have?  

My sister found out her fiance’s military orders Tuesday and is getting married Sunday. She is trying to keep it traditional despite the super short notice, but we feel like we might forget things. Real simple, small (30 people). Getting Married in Chapel, to pictures, to Restaurant. Here’s what I’ve got: Dress, shoes, Hair, Nails [...]

I am going to my friend’s wedding and it says that in her invitation. What does that mean? Does it mean they expect money? My parents thought it was rude too. When I was getting married, we made sure that we did not mention gifts in the invitations in any way.  

I understand real life assisting a wedding planner is the #1 ideal way to get experience, but I do have event planning experience already. It’s not in the wedding field, but with nonprofits. Anyway, aside from that, I was specifically wondering about possible online courses or a good program that’s nationwide? (Preferably in Oklahoma City, [...]

LIke..bridal bouqet, bridal party bouqet…does my mom where one? I havent even been to a wedding LOL umm Centrepieces and maybe a few for the [...]

One of my wedding guests (a male) has his Ph.D, and his wife hyphenates her last name. How am I supposed to address the invitation? Would it be something like…Dr. John Smith and Mrs. Brown-Smith? I can’t find anything that specifies.  

I am doing a project on "Greek Weddings" and I was curious if anyone could tell me a "recipe" or "checklist" for the traditional greek wedding? Such as the crowns, etc? (not a food recipe) haha And if you do find something please give me the website or source you got it from! Thanks it [...]

Any horror stories? How can you tell if you can trust the work and that everything will be delivered as ordered?  

I will be wearing a pink dress with red-ish habiscus flowers on it, and alot of brown tones meshed in the floral pattern as well. the dress has a little ruffle at the top, sleeveless, but has straps, it goes about 3/4 down my thigh and sinches a little above the waist. I will be [...]

What would you say is a unique wedding planning story? As coming from the planner? I have been asked to do an assignment on this and I can’t think of what they might want. Thanks!  

I am getting married next year and am having a small ceremony with close friends and family. (I have a HUGE family and dont want them all to attend the actualy wedding ceremony) I am having my reception immediately following the ceremony but I dont know how to word the invitations so that it explains [...]

I just need a guaranteed delivery. Maybe one where I can create my own bouquets?  

I’ve never coordinated a wedding reception before and with only 5 weeks and no time to research, I feel Iike there’s only time to throw one together. They want to reinact the wedding, lighting of a unity candle, roast a pig, dance (probably no time to book a DJ). That’s all I have. Any ideas [...]

What are the most common missed things when planning a wedding… and the most common missed things on the actual wedding day? I’m going over our checklist for our August 1 2009 wedding and want to make sure im not forgetting anything  

I am making my own wedding invitations. Besides the invitation, reception card, and RSVP card; what else gets sent with the invite? Thanks for all the great answers! Does anyone know where i can find a sample hotel and direction card? Or is this just done on paper? I don’t want anything tacky looking. I [...]

I JUST asked a question about happy wedding planning and I was thinking about the wedding (9 months away) and I just got really lightheaded and now I feel like I’m going to vomit. Is this normal this early on and how do I deal with it?  

My wife and I want to renew our wedding vows on one of the Islands around Hawaii where there is a waterfall.  

Ok im doing all my flowers for my wedding myself i made the bouquets and then took one rose out of each bouquet with some baby breathe and did the boutonnieres now im going to start making the mother of the groom and mother of the brides flowers should they be the same flower as [...]

Websites can be for wedding shoes, venues, checklists, dresses, etiquette, etc. Anything dealing with weddings. Like the frugal bride.  

I am thinking of starting my own biz on the side doing wedding invitations and reception decor…how should I get started?  

My wedding color is marine blue. I would like to keep the price down but I want something pretty. What type of flowers would be best for the wedding? Bridal party? Flower girl? Centerpieces? Bride? It is a Summer Wedding The ceremony is outside.  

Does anyone know where the best school online is for a degree in wedding planning? Let me know all the best options that are out there.

I am making my own wedding invitations and I don’t have good enough handwriting to write the address on the envelopes myself. I’ve been trying to find something on the computer or in a craft store to help me out. Does anyone have any ideas?  

Whether your a wedding planner or planning your own wedding.  

My wedding is on September 23rd, and my fiance and I are going almost entirely DIY–mostly because we like self-sufficiency but also because we don’t want to spend exorbitant sums of money on stuff we can do ourselves! Our budget is 00 for the wedding & honeymoon! So, because I am planning this myself, I’ve [...]

i have no idea what kind of flowers i want. so i want to look around on the internet a little bit to see differrent kinds of flowers and colors do you all know a website that will show me these things?  

Obviously, this is the height of impropriety and greediness – for the bride to actually have her registry information listed on the actual wedding invitation. However, some still choose to do so. Even though some do it … that does not make this correct. My question is, after being confronted with this type of bad [...]
