Welcome to my new bridal store. Let me make this visit simple and enlightening for you. Weddings are meant to be joyous occassions.The magic will flow much better if you are organized from the beginning. So lets organize, now. There are many things to consider. Finance and time will determine many of your planning decisions. The date is the first thing to consider.Give yourself plenty of time to pull things together.You don't want to be frazzled because you ran out of time. Rushing can cause you to forget something, too.Determine what kind of wedding you want.Formal weddings can take more time for vendors to fill your orders. Bridal gowns, flowers, invitations, catering,cakes, photographers, and rings, all take time to prepare. Your gown may take 6 months to a year to arrive. You'll need to schedule your ceremony with the officiate, also. My advice to you, is to ask the most organized person that you know, to help with all the details.You'll need someone to oversee everything on the day of the ceremony. Things like where the rings are to the safe arrival of your cake. She/he delegates responsibilities and makes sure that all is done on time and correctly. Here is a check list of things to consider. - DATE
