Since so many couples are busy working long hours, carving out time to decompress together is the best way to begin the rest of your lives together! Now just breathe :)

PHOTOGRAPHY CREDIT: Love & Light Photographs Your wedding invitation & printed materials should represent your style, color and theme. Here are some key factors to keep in mind:
• Use good paper quality • Use a font that’s easy to read • Print your names in a script or italic style and make them larger than the rest of the copy • Your guests will see the envelopes first so make sure they are done in hand calligraphy or digitally printed If you decide to have ceremony programs, menu cards, table numbers or place cards – make sure each coordinates with your design so your theme is reflected throughout the entire wedding! Veils come in all different sizes (and names). Which length is right for you? Here is a little cheat sheet for you!
BIRDCAGE VEILS: These are the shortest veils. They can be worn to just cover the eyes or come down to your chin. SHOULDER-LENGTH VEILS: These end somewhere between your shoulder to mid back. ELBOW-LENGTH VEILS: These are typically informal veils. They end where the skirt of your dress starts. FINGERTIP-LENGTH VEILS: These are the most popular veils. They fall somewhere around your lower back. BALLET-LENGTH VEILS: These aren’t as common, but very pretty. They fall between your knee and foot. CHAPEL-LENGTH VEILS: This veil goes all the way to the ground, but does not have a train. CATHEDRAL-LENGTH VEILS: This is the longest type of veil. These have a train, and are usually worn for a very formal wedding. (PICTURED ABOVE: AlisaBrides) PHOTOGRAPHY CREDIT: Love & Light Photographs Suggestions for being a great wedding guest:
First: RSVP on time! The bride and groom are on a deadline and knowing exact numbers are really helpful. Day of the wedding: DO NOT WEAR WHITE! This includes ivory, eggshell, or anything that resembles white! If it is on the registry..they want it! It doesn’t matter if you think they will never use it or don’t need it. It isn’t for you, it’s for them. Don’t be a Negative Nancy. The bride doesn’t need to hear things that you thought could have been better. It’s about her and the groom, not your cold chicken. Unless your invitation said, “and guest”, then do not bring a guest. |
