Creating a perfect wedding in an imperfect world

How do you create a perfect wedding in an imperfect world?

Start with an attitude; purpose that your wedding will be exactly what you want it to be, and to do that, you need to define your wedding purpose: Formal? Chic casual? Hoe-down BBQ? Beach theme? Country Club gathering? Whatever your style, match it to the venue, your personality, and your guests.

Keep your guest's comfort always in the forefront of whatever you do. Pay attention to the details, because it is in the details that the difference is made. You might not think that anyone but you will even notice the details, but when you have several "details" that are not correct, pretty soon the whole is not functioning correctly and that is what the people notice, so pay attention to the details.

Define your budget and stick to it. Just because you are hosting a wedding does not give you a license to go thousands of dollars into debt. Know what is within your budget realm and plan accordingly. Want the big fancy ballroom reception but have tiny funds available? Learn to prioritize and know which things are important to give you the look that you want; learn to hold fast to those things can you go without to create the overall effect that you are showing to your guests.

Don't be afraid to think outside the box. Just because weddings have been done a certain way in your community, does not mean that YOUR wedding has to be the same way. Be creative, show your individual style off, treat your guests as the treasured friends and family that they are and your wedding will be perfect.
