When you are planning your wedding it seems like every tiny detail counts. You have to have the right dress, the perfect hair, the right flowers and even the right invitations. Even the way the invitations are worded matters. For example someone having a more modern wedding may not be interested in Christian wedding invitation wording, while someone having a religious ceremony is.

The time of ceremony you are planning will help you determine what type of decorations are needed in order to pull of the wedding of your dreams. Take your time to iron out all of the details and you'll find that you wedding will go much smoother than you ever imagined possible.

Probably the easiest way to get started planning is to choose the venue. Once you decide where you'll be holding your ceremony and reception, you'll know how many people you can invite. Once the date is set in stone and the venues are set, you can order your invitations and begin making your guest list. Don' feel obligated to invite every single person you know. There is nothing wrong with having a small intimate wedding.

If someone gets offended, or says something about not being invited simply assure them that you are having a small wedding with mostly family in attendance. This way their feelings are not hurt . It' expensive to throw a large wedding and a lot of the time you simply can' afford to invite everyone. Other than the decorations for the ceremony, and the clothing, there isn't much you will need.

However, the reception requires a lot of planning, especially if you are planning on having a lot of people attend. To plan the reception, start with the tables and chairs. Depending on the venue, these may need to be rented, and you'll have to make sure you have enough to accommodate all of your guests. When you're setting up the tables and chairs, make sure that you are situating them so that there is room for the guests to dance and mingle. You also need to set up tables for the food, drinks, wedding cake and gifts
