Wedding Tips...

Planning Your Wedding Day
The best insurance of having a smooth running wedding, is to plan enough time for what's important to you. Ask the professionals you are hiring how much time they will need to perform their duties and then make up a tentative schedule. But don't expect to stay on schedule to the minute, you can't control most of the things going on around you on your wedding day. Your photographer is one of the best people to ask for

assistance in this area, because he/she is one of the few professionals that sees every wedding from start to finish. Don't hesitate to give us a call if you need help.

Save on Invitations
When ordering invitations, keep in mind that you don't usually need an invitation for each and every guest. You only need one per couple and if young children are invited, you'll only need one per family. Although, you may want to send older children living at home, their own invitation. I would also recommend that you order about 15 extra invitations to allow for mistakes when addressing or names you may have forgotten about. You should also realize that larger invitations usually require extra postage, which can add up quickly.

Mr. and Mrs. Who?
When making your honeymoon plans with your travel agent, make sure you get your flight and room confirmation numbers. Wait about a week, then call the airline and hotel to reconfirm your reservations. Don't panic if they don't know who you are. Sometimes travel packages save flight and room reservations in blocks, just make sure you're included in the block.

Long Sleeves
If any of the men, or boys, in your bridal party have smaller builds or shorter arms, here's an easy way to prevent their sleeves from falling down all day. Simply put a rubber band or two around their upper arm to hold the sleeve up. Of course, this is assuming they are wearing jackets!

Love
by Robert Browning

So, the year's done with
( Love me for ever! )
All March begun with,
April's endeavour;
May-wreaths that bound me
June needs must sever;
Now snows fall round me,
Quenching June's fever...
( Love me for ever! )
