If you are assigning any guest to give a speech at your wedding, have him rehearse the speech with you beforehand to ensure that it is appropriate. Many generations and people of differing viewpoints will attend your wedding, so your speech makers need to make their speeches geared to everyone and not just play to their own friends.
Use the property of a relative or friend to hold your wedding. If someone you know has a large yard or farm, you can get rid of a big wedding expense. Your only expense should be paying someone to clean before and after the wedding.
If the bride has sensitive skin she can find excellent ways to take the stress out of their lives so they don’t end up with facial irritation by adopting a good skincare routine. Seek facial treatment aids that are soothing to the skin such as creamy scrubs, sea salts, rose and oatmeal proteins.
While you definitely want to provide songs you like to your DJ, you also want to include songs you definitely don’t want to make the list. Was there a song that you loved once but you no longer do? Whatever you choose, be sure they know about it so you don’t get mad about the song choices.
Practice walking towards a full length mirror to ensure you know how to do it, especially if you are not used to heels. If you think you might twist your ankle, wear nice flats instead. A sensible pair of shoes is better than injuring yourself by wearing high heels.
One ideal gift idea for your friends and family joining you for a destination wedding is to consider having a selection of local goodies delivered to the room of each guest.

When making wedding dinner seating arrangements, be sure to have even numbers of people at each table. Use age and relationship models to help group your tables, as this will help people locate good company.

Since they take such a huge chunk of your wedding budget, make good choices when planning your centerpieces. Instead of going all out and putting an elaborate centerpiece at each table, keep them small. Simple centerpieces help keep the table from feeling cluttered and make it easier for guests to talk to each other.
If the culture of the bride’s and groom’s family are very different, plan the wedding ceremony in the tradition of one side and follow the traditions of the other side at the reception. This will create an intriguing and memorable contrast that will satisfy both sides of the family.
Renting different styles of seating for your wedding is a great idea, instead of traditional tables if you are planning to not serve food at your reception. A lounge, chaise or even a cushy piece of sectional can give guests a greater way to communicate. You can create special lounge areas with plush seating throughout the venue to make guest feel comfortable and special.
Do some homework before meeting your wedding planner. Take a tip from stylists and fashion designers. Create a look book and/or a mood board of inspirational tidbits, imagery and fabric swatches that will help you envision the big day. You can clip magazine photos, song lyrics, or photos that help you convey what you want to your wedding planner.
A great way to place live flowers around your wedding without spending an arm and a leg on flowers that will end up in the bin is to use potted plants. Glazed ceramic pots in colorful hues will look great, or you can opt to paint and adorn the pottery yourself. With the potted plants, you can either take them home for yourself, or you can go ahead and let guests take them home as wedding gifts.
The photographer you choose for your wedding should not simply take photos; instead they ought to be creating memories. Ask a photographer for thoughts on your big day when interviewing them. Ask the photographer detailed questions about their work process and what a typical wedding is like for them to work. You want their style to mesh with what you have planned and your vision.
The groom needs to make sure his tuxedo fits before the wedding day to avoid any unpleasant wardrobe malfunctions. Consult with people whose opinions you trust before you make a final decision about your tux. There will be pictures at the wedding so you should attempt to look your best.
