You could follow some of these simple wedding planning tips to help you along your way to planning a great wedding!

Wedding planning and preparation tips:

When planning the guest list, remember that you do not need to invite your co-workers. If there is some one that you work with that you are very close to, that is one thing but inviting 100 people from the office is just a waste of your money on the invitations because only the ones that you are close to will come anyway.

* The first step in wedding planning is deciding how much money you are going to spend and make a budget. When planning your wedding budget allow 25% more for extras that you haven't planned for.

* Order the invitations four months in advance. Invitations should be mailed four to six weeks in advance. Take the invitations to the post office to be weighted for sufficient postage.

* On your wedding day bring along an emergency kit with a needle and thread, safety pins, hairpins, hairspray, nail polish and extra pantyhose.

* Start shopping for a wedding dress six months in advance. You will need several fittings before it is perfect.

* Do your hair and makeup before putting on your wedding dress.

* Plan your honeymoon six months in advance. Make all arrangements and reservations well in advance. * If your budget is small, share your joy and happiness with only family and your closest friends.

* When selecting a caterer try to sample their food before hiring them. If it is a restaurant, go there to have dinner before you hire them.

* Invitations should always be addressed by pen, preferably a black fountain pen.

Wedding Videographer - What to look out for



Congratulations for an exciting change in your life!

Hiring a wedding videographer has become one of the standard necessities in today's wedding ceremonies. Hiring a professional videographer would really help ease the stress levels for you and your partner and also at the same time capturing one of the most important days of your life. But there are so many videographers out there, how can you decide? what price should I pay for their services? what should I cover? how long does it take? what is the deposit that I should be paying? what types of warning signs should I know before hiring them? All these questions many people are concerned of. Here are a few tips to think about when hiring a wedding videographer.

When calling a company, ask how long they have been in the business for. Try to get to speak to the videographer that will be filming and editing your wedding. Get to know how they work, make sure you are comfortable with them. Ask them for a demo preview, a video can be edited in so many different ways. After viewing the demo decide if you like their style. Ask for references and previous clients they may have. Normally it takes an editor about 3 weeks to edit your wedding video. Make sure you are able to make your changes and view the video before they send the final product to you.

A good videographer will capture at least 70% of your family's reaction shots, look at their demos to evaluate if they include these important shots, some wide shots of the ceremony, and also they would include interviews from your friend's and family. They should have most of the important speeches mic properly to insure that you get excellent audio quality.

Most couples today spend around $1600 to $2000 for photography and videography services. Many of the businesses today offer them both at around that price range. The deposit that they usually ask is between 30% to 50%. If your on a tight budget, and can't afford to hire the videographer for the full day, decide with your partner on which event is the most important to cover. On your wedding day, make sure everyone knows what they are doing in order to stay on time. You want the videographer to capture video and not have them sit there waiting for you to arrive.

Until then, good luck!
