Planning Your Wedding Party A Party You've Been Dreaming of For Years!
The wedding ceremony and wedding party are two events that you may have been dreaming about and mentally planning since you were a little girl conducting pretend weddings with your Ken and Barbie dolls.
Planning a wedding party is one of the more complex party planning events you can tackle as a host. Many brides choose to hire wedding planners, recruit close friends to help, or choose a full service hotel with staff to make sure their day is the perfect one they imagine it to be. If you find yourself tasked with planning a wedding, either your own or for someone else, reading this article will give you some good ideas.
If your wedding is small or one that is relatively simple and modest in scope, you can be very successful in planning your own wedding with the help of a few family and friends. That's how I planned my own small wedding and a larger one for my niece.
No matter the size however, there are some basics and special touches that all weddings require. In this article I will touch on the major areas that need planning.
Here is an initial party planning checklist that will help you know the things you'll need to decide in planning a wedding party. Many of these issues can be done on a budget or in a big way. So one of the first things you need to do is set a budget! You also need to start your planning several months in advance. If it's a really big affair you might need as much as a year to do all the planning.
____Set the date
____Set a budget – decide who will be paying for what
____Brush up on wedding etiquette
____Choose a theme and colors.
____Begin to build a wedding web-site if you want one
____Choose and book a location
____Select the bridesmaids and groomsmen
____Decide who to invite – number of guests drives the cost of your wedding party
____Send out "save the date" notices, especially if guests will be travelling
____Decide what you and your groom with wear and begin shopping
____What will be something old, new, borrowed, blue – don't forget the "penny for my shoe."
____Decide what your maid of honor, bridesmaids, and groomsmen with wear
____Decide on the food and kind of food service you want
____Begin planning wedding décor for the wedding ceremony and wedding party venue
____Register for gifts at merchants and department stores
____ Interview, select, and engage wedding vendors:
- Minister or wedding officiate
- Florist
- Wedding cake baker
- Photographer and or videographer
- Caterers
- Printers for invitations and program
- Engage a Wedding MC – This eBook, "You Can be a Wedding M.C." is LOADED with fantastic wedding planning information. Go to http://www.partyplanningeasyas123.com/MC-ebook/ to get great ideas!
- Disc Jockey, soloist, band, orchestra, string quartet, or other entertainment
____Discuss the rehearsal dinner with the groom's parents
____Decide who will do your hair and makeup for the wedding and make appointments for you and your attendants
____Discuss the honeymoon and wedding night with your groom
____Make reservations for the wedding night and honeymoon
____Gift for the bride from the groom
____Gift for the groom from the bride
____Gifts for all the wedding attendants
____Wedding favors for all the guests
____Travel for family members and wedding attendants
____Decide the seating plan if you are having a sit down meal
____Decide who will make toasts at the wedding and prepare the speakers
____Hotel accommodations for out-of-town guests
____Any needs for special needs guests
____Select and purchase wedding rings
____Get the marriage license
This list should give you a good start to a once in a lifetime celebration for you and your groom as you embark on a new journey through life together.
More is not always better and concentrating on creating lasting memories and a beautiful relationship are more important than a grand show. Whatever you plan for your wedding party, make sure you and your partner are on the same page.
Good luck!
