Planning a Wedding.......Is it really that difficult?

I am not married but still like to add that its great and beleive if are up to something gud the rest is managed.

First congratulations. I am sorry I cant help you with any ideas for the wedding but i can say that I wish you will be as happy as I have been married to a very special man for almost 46 years xx

Well it is getting more difficult as the demand from people is getting higher ... That is why there is occupation called the wedding planners nowadays to organize wedding for people yea .... there are to many prodeure that we might not be able to know yea

A wedding can be a big headache to plan. I planned ours all by myself, we also paid for it all ourselves. The nice thing about that is no one else tried to tell me what I had to do b/c it was their money. I think the important thing is to pick a date & then go from there. I hope it goes well for you.

Whatever you do, do not try to go cheap on the photographer!! Those pictures will be one of your most prized possessions. If you are on a strict budget, go cheap on the food, go cheap on the honeymoon, go cheap on the decorations because no one remembers that after a while; but those pictures will last forever!

Planning a wedding is stressful also. to get started just list everything you want for your wedding. Or maybe if you can afford get a wedding planner. If you like a church weeking its wonderful and ouitdors wedding its ok also. It really depends on you and your future hubby what you likes for your wedding...

Look there are professional agencies which arrange from pin to elephant required for conduct of marriage formalities. You can hire them or obtain a litrerature which lists items to be taken care of depending on what scale the weeding is going to take place.

It can be. I am planning my wedding by myself because my fiance is on active duty on the east coast.

My husband and I had zero money, really.. we did get some from my dad to help out, and my husband was working at the time.. but we started with a very low budget. I ordered really inexpensive invites. We went to a flower market in down town Los Angeles to pick out flowers just for the church pews, and for the wedding parties (including immediate family). We made our own centerpieces. I only had a flower girl and a maid of honor, and both of their dresses were made. My wedding dress was also made- dresses all done by my grandmother. We spent $300 for the church/reception hall. We bought all the food ourselves, and put everything together ourselves. My aunt made the wedding cake. My step-dad did the photography, and my cousin did the video. Point is, if you have people who can and are willing to help you, USE THEM. They can offer you their services as a wedding gift to you!! You can tip them if you'd like. LOL

Choose a date. Consider all factors, including venue availability, work schedules, family commitments, travel plans of friends and family, holidays and preparation time. Some venues and vendors give discounts for weddings on nontraditional days such as Friday and Sunday. Also think about when you want to hold the wedding; a morning or afternoon reception may be cheaper than the typical Saturday night. Off-peak times of the year, such as after the holidays, may also be discounted. Decide on the size and type of wedding you'd like. Your dream wedding may be entirely different from that of your betrothed. Discuss the desire for a formal or casual event, the ideal location, how many people you'd like to invite (and who they are), as well as family expectations. If you have an elegant evening wedding in mind and your partner thinks a luau on the beach would be perfect, keep talking until you close the gap.

hey now a days there are soo many hotel which provide marriage arrangment... just try there..

If you can afford to have a wedding planner, then that might help you a lot. Just make sure to plan things that you're budget can afford. What's important is that your marriage life will last.

First decide the date. Then how much you want to spend and how many people. Then reserve the church, hall, caterers, wedding cake, photographer, and entertainment. These all have to be done right away so that they are all available the day that you need the. I think outdoor weddings are pretty but just too unpredictable. An outside wedding can be ruined by bad weather. Be sure you give yourself plenty of time to make the arrangements. WRITE EVERYTHING DOWN. MAKE LISTS. There are to many things to remember.

First, decide how much you are willing to spend. If someone else is paying for it, how much are they willing to spend? How much you can spend affects most parts of the wedding like where will the reception be, how many guests, how many flowers, the number of attendants, etc. What you don't want to do is go into debt for your wedding. We had a wedding and spent $5,000 total for everything, but we only had 50 guests, I made the centerpieces myself, my dad did the photography, I had one attendant, and we had recorded music rather than a dj or band. Our wedding was GREAT, though. There are alot of places online that you can get lists for planning and you can decide what you do or don't want on the list (or what you can or can't afford).

its good.take it easy,,just go on..thats better thatn friendship

First and foremost, set your budget before you decide anything else, because even your date will affect how much you will have to spend. My wedding was the last saturday of June, which is the most popular date of the year so things were harder to book. So first, pick a budget, then a date, then colors/theme. First thing you should book is a photographer because, to me, it's the most important thing you could spend your money on! The pick a place. But remember, if you have an outdoor wedding, have a back up. I had an indoor wedding, my best friend had an outdoor wedding. I can say I had a lot less stress than she did simply because she was so worried about rain! My colors were pink and green, we had a luau themed reception, and had it inside a church, but it wasn't formal. It was VERY laid back. Tea length dresses, I was barefoot. More than anything, do what makes you happy. Don't worry about what other people will think about your wedding. If you think it's fabulous, then that's all that matters!

I guess what you need to do is ask your family or his family to help you guys out in the planning..Make a list of what is the most important thing you should do 1st.1st make a choice where you want the wedding...Is is in church or outdoors? Ask your hubby...when that is settled go now to the catering and home cooking? Which do both of you want? try this list I made for you; 1. When do you plan to marry? 2. Where do we get married? Church or Outdoor 3. How will the foods be served? Catering or home cooking 4. Invitations If you have money get a wedding planner. They'll do everything for you. If not, budget your money on where you want to spend it and how..hope this helps you.

First, make a list of what you need to decide.. place, date, theme, catering, celebrant, guest list, music... etc.. and then together discuss it with your fiancee on how you want it done.. dont get stressed out.. it is a lot of information and deciding.. but after all it will be your big day.. :) And second .. which is actually the most important.. remember the wedding is only for a day.. but marriage is forever.. dont get too stressed out on the detail of the wedding... afterall what is most important is your marriage.. the feeling you have for each other.. this wedding is only a celebration.. of course it is a very big one.. but dont get too stressed out on the detail until you start to ignore each other feeling.. or start to fight about silly little things such as the flower type.. etc2.. Get help from both of your parents and future inlaws would also be great.. it will make them feel wanted and important too :) and also it takes a load of your back heeh congratulations!!

It's not an enormous job as it seems to be. Share it with friends and close relatives and sooner or later, you will see that they are doing most of the jobs and give you lots of suggestions. To start with there may some clues from the internet. For sure you can get good books about it. congrats.
