Hot Destination Wedding Locations You Might Not Have Considered

When we think of destination wedding locations our minds often turn to white sandy beaches in tropical climates. That’s understandable. Who doesn’t enjoy lazy days on the beach in the warmth of a tropical breeze? But if you’ve been there, and done that, or just want something a little more memorable for your destination wedding where do you turn? Consider these five options for building nuptial memories that are as rich in culture as they are in luxury.

Crete: Enjoy the rich history of the Island of Crete with a destination wedding on this sparkling island in the Mediterranean Sea. Imagine your wedding ceremony at sunset with the deep blue waters of the sea behind you and a warm breeze fluttering by. Afterwards spend a week or more relaxing on the beaches of Crete and alternately touring the rich historical sights of this ancient Island.

Stockholm: There are few places as romantic and overlooked as Stockholm, Sweden. Built around one of Europe’s largest most beautifully maintained medieval city centers spread out over fourteen islands Stockholm and the surrounding picturesque countryside is the perfect spot for a memorable destination wedding getaway. Go in the spring and see the spectacular carpet of flowers dotting the countryside.

Wedding Planning Consultants: Protection from Hair Loss

Is it really necessary to hire a wedding planning consultant? Many people have successfully planned and implemented their weddings on their own, but many of these same people probably would not have done all the planning themselves if they had it to do over again. Planning a wedding is a huge task. We all know that, but most of us don’t really know how massive the task is until we are facing the task ourselves. That’s where a wedding planning consultant comes in.

Indeed, when a bride first begins to think of wedding planning, the process may seem quite straightforward, but it’s when you really begin to get into the meat of it that you see how many little details there really are. Even a fairly small and intimate wedding can be overwhelming. There is everything from invitations, caterers, and wedding cake design to more complicated issues if you are planning a theme wedding. But an experienced wedding planning consultant is like a conductor at a symphony. They know from experience just what to put where and have proved over the years to have the temperament to be able to juggle all the details without going insane.

Moreover, a wedding planning consultant can help with many aspects of a wedding that you may never have even thought of. They can create the perfect wedding that you have always imagined, and at the same time they know enough about how the wedding industry works to give you suggestions that can help keep the cost at a minimum.

With a theme wedding it may be even more important to hire a consultant because all the rules change. We’ve all been to dozens of weddings that looked pretty much the same to know what the basic elements are, but planning a themed wedding changes the elements of a wedding and in doing so... more

Informal Wedding Dresses Are In

Informal wedding dresses are becoming the in thing today. Not only are the gowns leaning more toward informal - but brides have chosen to move away from the traditional white Victorian style gown. It is becoming more common to see the blushing bride sporting colors ranging from the light pastels of a few years ago to the more subdued shades of greens, browns, purples, and pinks.

Because of their increased popularity there are more sources than ever to shop for informal wedding dresses. Many bridal shops carry lines of informal gowns. In addition, there are several outlets on the Internet, and of course there is always the option of making your own dress.

Regardless of where you choose to shop for informal wedding dresses, keep in mind that if you are having a theme wedding you will want to keep with the style. Consider what type of attire would be worn if that theme were not a part of a wedding. For example, if you are celebrating your wedding with a Italian Renaissance Nobility theme... more

Spectacular Options For Sunset Beach Weddings

There are few things as stunning as sunset beach weddings. The bride and the groom standing hand in hand along with the minister, rabbi, or priest in silhouette against the growing color as the sun sets over the water. Torch light holds back the coming darkness as the guests watch from rows of white folding chairs or, if the sunset beach wedding is on the big island of Hawaii, perch on ancient volcanic rocks sticking out of the sand.

Perhaps the bride in this sunset beach wedding is wearing a simple, yet stunning knee length gown in the subtlest shade of lavender that seems to change color against the changing light. On her feet are barefoot sandals with matching bracelet and earrings whose beads occasionally catch those magical last rays from the sun and seem to magnify them in a shower of color around her. The tuxedoed groom was barefoot as well as he... more

In Search of Children’s Wedding Favors

Weddings are often a family affair, but have you thought about children’s wedding favors? You would not feel particularly appreciated if someone gave you a gift of denture adhesive even if you might need it at some distant point in your life. The children in your wedding party are sharing your big day too, so it’s only appropriate that you have favors that are appropriate for them at their stage of life. So consider these suggestions for children’s wedding favors.

Sun Catchers

There is little in the world more awe inspiring to the young and young at heart than any opportunity to watch the sunlight bend and sparkle across the room. But the opportunity to see such an event are often limited to a rain storm or a visit to an old cathedral - unless there is a sun catcher available. With these fun and beautiful favors the children on your guest list can remember be beauty of your wedding day every time they see the sun shinning through the sun catcher wedding favor you presented to them as a token of your love and gratitude.

Bubble Bath Wedding Favor

What kid doesn't love bubble bath? When Mom makes them take a bath and at least bubble bath makes it fun. Think of the delight on a child's face as they watch the bubbles dance, float, and burst before their eyes... For you this means that bubble bath is an excellent choice as a wedding favor for children.

Key Chain Favors

Babies love keys, but kids love key chains. Can anyone explain why it is true? We've all seen children hoarding key chains... Maybe it's because they see it as a link to being grown up. Maybe it's something else. It doesn't really matter. All that really matters here is that your wedding favor will be treasured by the younger guests at your wedding - reminding them of your big day.

Snow Globes Wedding Favors

When I was a child I adored snow globes. For me, not only did the snow fly but the scene came alive in the depths of my imagination. Watching the snow fall was a great distraction and... more

  • For a beach wedding what could be more appropriate than sending the invitations rolled into a bottle. Either choose paper just long enough so that... more
