In today's economy, is there a need for a wedding planner?
Weddings can be one of life's biggest expenses. In the current economic climate, it's no surprise that couples are looking for ways to cut down the costs. But hiring a wedding planner may actually save you money and time in the long run.
Celebrate the environment with the newest eco-chic products
As you lay out on the beach soaking in some sunshine, or relax in the green grass in your backyard, you're reminded just how important it is to protect the environment. There are small steps you can take to create big change and it can be as simple as the beauty products you buy.
From cooler, dryer weather and the glorious backdrop of fall colors to the opportunity to land a great deal on a reception venue, fall delivers many rewards for couples on the road to wedded bliss. If you're planning your nuptials for harvest season, consider this advice for incorporating the best elements of the season in your big day.
Just married? How to reconcile your decorating differences
After the "I dos" are exchanged and the reception is over, couples find out that the realities of cohabitation do not always make for smooth sailing, especially when it comes to blending different tastes and styles. While newlyweds find themselves saying "I do" at the altar, that phrase frequently turns into "I don't" when the couple begins combining two unique decorating styles into a single household.
Secrets every bride can use to make her wedding unique
Every bride-to-be dreams of putting her unique stamp on her wedding day. Blending her chosen wedding colors into many of the occasion's elements is just the first step toward a creative and beautiful event. Brides in gorgeous gowns, bridesmaids and groomsmen decked out in the wedding party's colors and striking flowers are the perfect accompaniment to the colorful landscape of the summer and fall wedding seasons.
What's the best compliment a guest can pay a bride and groom on their wedding? It's not that the food was good, or that the DJ picked great songs - it's that the whole event captured the spirit and personality of the couple.
Weddings are one of life's most celebrated occasions. For brides- and grooms-to-be and their families, an incredible amount of creativity and planning is poured into this all-important day: from the wedding gown to the ceremony, from the invitations and flowers to the wedding cake itself. One of the most-remembered details is what guests are served, so the wedding menu should reflect the couple-to-be's unique style and personality.
Desire a destination wedding? Domestic destinations offer beauty, value
Every wedding is as special as the bride who takes her vows that day, no matter if the setting is a centuries-old church, a hotel ballroom or the bride's own backyard. But if you dream of saying your "I do's" beside the gentle tide, or greeting your guests from the top of a staircase that looks like it's straight out of "Gone With the Wind," then a destination wedding might be right for you.
Before you walk down the aisle, having a conversation about finances and credit can help ensure a future of wedded bliss, with minimal disagreements over money. Transparency over finances builds trust in a relationship.
Don't let scams and identity theft ruin your honeymoon
The excitement of getting married doesn't end after the rice has been thrown, the cake has been cut and the presents opened. For most couples, the next stop is the adventure of a honeymoon.
