Research what is a good per-person budget for the type of wedding you want, multiply this by the number of guests, and then, add 10-15 percent to that figure and you should be close to the total cost of your wedding.
Everything about a wedding invitation should be perfect, including the penmanship on the envelopes. Don't use lables or personally handwrite the addresses yourself; hire a professional.
If you want to include your young nieces and nephews, arrange for a playroom at the reception and hire a couple of certified nannies. Thank me later!
Schedule a minimum of two or three fittings to get the gown perfect. Take into consideration your monthly cycle, water weight gain and, the probable temperature and humidity on your wedding day. Pass it on ladies!
When it comes time to allocate money to the catering, decor, venue, etc., you should have your priorities in place and spend accordingly.
