out of curiosity what tips did you use too keep your wedding cheap?
we did a couple things:
1.i dont like diamonds so my ring was very cheap but very pretty and totally shows my personality.
2.we didn’t have an engagement ring. were im from people wear the ring during engagement and then when they get married they switch it to the other hand.
3.also in my culture bridesmaids and groomsmen and flower girls/ring bearers arnt common to that cut out for flowers and dresses.
4.reception and wedding were in the same venue.
5.silk flowers
6.we only had 50 people so there wasn’t dancing or a dj but music through the sound system.
7.because of the amount of people it cut the price regarding food,tables,linen,plates,favors,chairs ans centerpieces and candles/silk flowers.
8.did my own makeup and hair.

Here’s just a couple, but I would suggest to talk with your significant other to look for songs that you would both like to dance to and that would also be memorable for you both. Best of luck to you, and congratulations!

My grandma was my world. She helped raise me and we were very close. Three years ago she was diagnosed with terminal cancer and a week before she passed away she gave me her wedding ring. She said she didn’t see the point in being buried with it and since she knew she would never be able to see me get married she wanted me to have it. It meant so much to me and I plan on that being my engagement ring (will likely get a band to go with it after I’m actually married). My question is, would it be ok to update the ring a bit? It’s a gold band and I’ve heard jewelers can dip the band in white gold. I would also like to add to it a little, maybe some more diamonds. I don’t want to change the whole look of the ring, I just want to make it a bit more updated. I don’t think my grandma would be upset by this at all! Any advice would be appreciated!
Also…where would you recommend taking the ring to?
I’m 34, currently working as a production planner, and have been for the last 9 years, and sick of sitting in an office.
As mentioned, I cant decide between the two careers. The wedding photography would be a career I would slowly get into over the next 3-4 years doing along side my current job, where as hgv driving, got my class C, just need to get C+E to drive artics.
It has always been an ambition of mine to drive lorries since the age of 13, but never thought about pursuing it until now. I love driving and as i have a quiet personality, don’t mind the fact it’s a pretty lonely job.
As for photography, being doing this as a hobby since I was 16, got into photoshop about 10 years ago, and have learnt the basics of Lightroom over the last couple of months. The only thing that makes me question if I would be successful as a wedding photographer, is the fact I am pretty quiet around new people, so not sure if photography is the best career to pursue.
I understand lorry driving involves long hours, and its difficult to get into without the two year experience, but where I live in Lincolnshire, there is plenty of haulage companies, so I’m pretty sure I could find somebody who would give me a try.
Hey, this is kind of an embarrassing question, but I am getting married in June, and I gained a little weight when I got my IUD put in, and I have some stretch marks on my arm, they arent noticable, but at times they are, do you have any ideas on how to cover it up when wearing a wedding dress? Thanks!
We are getting married in May 2012 & we plan to have a reception back home for all of our friends and family.. We would like a Vegas themed reception. I was thinking about taking lots of pictures and using them as a slideshow to make it feel as if our guests were actually there .. Also , our colors are black/red/white. I’m trying to come up with ideas as to party favors, center pieces, and any other ideas that anyone has. I’ve never been to a wedding reception so any insight would be great. We were planning to get poker tables and black jack tabels for our guests to gamble a little bit and have some fun.
Hi there
I’m setting up a bespoke wedding planning service & require a catchy / quirky name. I initially wanted r.s.v.p. but this is already heavily used in the Internet domain. Any inspiring thoughts will be very much appreciated.
what are you expectations? what would put you off hiring one?
