We will feature these planning questions (or problems) and their professional answers. Feel free to leave your rough questions or prenuptial roadblocks in our comments section and we will have Wedding Connection members share their solutions for your wedding planning woes.

 

Wedding Connection member; Picture Perfect Photography shared their frequently asked question from brides:

 

“How do I know how much time it will take to do my photos after the service?

 

Dave from Picture Perfect Photography shared his response:  “We will help you ‘engineer’ your time line.” An experienced wedding photographer knows about approximately how long formal wedding shots will take after the wedding ceremony. They will offer suggestions on what types of photos can be taken prior to the ceremony and work with you on figuring out about how much time will be needed (based on number of photos requested, number of wedding party member, and time allotted at the ceremony location).

From Judy Gaulden of Photo Artistry by Judy   

 

 

If you are doing all of your photos before the wedding ceremony ask your photographer to arrange a special “private time together” for the two of you before the photo session begins. How romantic to walk down the aisle to your groom and have him tell you how beautiful you are! You may choose to be totally alone or have your photographer present to record this very special moment.

From June Hoffman (DJ/MC/Officiant) of Megasound

 

  1. Try to have a rehearsal so your wedding ceremony goes smoothly.
  2. Do not “lock” your knees while standing at the alter.
  3. Breath naturally and allow the Officiant to lead you through the nuptials.

Remember to enjoy your wedding ceremony as it will go by so quickly.

Six Considerations for Your Outdoor Wedding Planning

February 12, 2009 by · Leave a Comment 

by Ceruti’s Catering at Summit Park

Outdoor weddings are very romantic and can provide the natural theme that cannot be duplicated indoors.

There are many different types of outdoor weddings. You can have your ceremony outdoors and your reception indoors or both the ceremony and reception can be outdoors on your own property or in a park.

The following are six areas of consideration when you start planning your outdoor wedding:

  • CALENDAR: Time of year is essential for the factors considering temperature and humidity.
  • LOCATION, LOCATION, LOCATION: This will determine everything from parking, restroom requirements, changing area, catering requirements, electrical needs, and general logistics.
  • EXPENSES: Generally, outdoor wedding receptions are more costly than using a banquet facility which includes amenities that would not have a rental cost. A traditional church ceremony will generally range from $500 - $800. You should budget at least the same or more for an outdoor ceremony if you want amenities such as seating, decorations, aisle runner, sound system, etc.
  • HAVE A BACK UP PLAN: The possibility of bad weather always exists, you should have a contingency plan. Whether that means a tent or indoor option such as your reception location, have your plan mapped out prior to your wedding day.
  • ACCESSIBILITY: Make sure the location has adequate parking. You may need to provide valet service, especially for senior citizens.

Have your ideas in mind when talking to your wedding vendors and reception venue. Ask a lot of questions and let the experienced professionals assist you in creating your dream outdoor wedding.
