If you do not want uninvited guests crashing on your wedding, then you will need to take precautions for your grand affair. Although some people may even think it is a silly idea to hire someone to have a look out for some wedding crashers. What you can do is just delegate a few of your bridesmaids or your groomsmen in making sure that you have not been infiltrated by crashers.

You can also avoid wedding crashers by checking that everyone has an invitation. This idea may let your guests feel uncomfortable, but you can hide your motives to your guests by exchanging the wedding invitation for a gift as your guests arrive. Do remember that the idea is not to insult your guests, but to keep crashers from crashing the party. Your bridesmaids can help you with this plan, but better give them their handmade bridesmaid jewelry gifts first so that you have them really mobile.

January 29th, 2010

As we all know the bride will be very busy for the next eight months to a year, to plan for her reception venue, bridesmaids gifts, finding vendors and more. As she plans all those, she will also be trapped in a complex of emotions. Some bride may even hide their emotions since it is not normal for most people to know that the bride is conflicted with emotions.

In truth, brides also hurt. They may not show their feelings since most expect them to be always happy, but through their days of wedding planning, they are mostly having complex of emotions and probably battling all of those emotions by themselves.

As an engaged woman, they should still feel that they are obligated to feel certain emotions other women do not commonly feel. At this point, they should feel a feeling of loss, denial, and fear since the only life they had is slowly ending.

The good side about all those emotions, is that they are just common and that brides need to accept all that they are feeling and share them. Bottling their frustrations and fears will just make it worse. Learning to accept confusion is just part of being engaged.

Items on Your Checklist

If you do not have a wedding planner to help you with your wedding since professional wedding planners charge around $1,900 to $2,850 and you would rather spend some of your budget on your bridesmaids gifts, then a wedding checklist can help you with the process of planning.

The main item in your wedding checklist should have your wedding reception and your bridal gown. Your wedding reception should be at the top of the list because looking for the right venue should be done eight months before the wedding. This will allow you to look for the right place since you are given plenty of time and if situations such as the need to change your wedding date, you easily change this since you have a lot of time to change some things.

Your bridal gown is also at the top list since you will also need to prepare the right gown six months before the wedding.

Changing to a new Identity

January 26th, 2010

As the bride plan for the whole wedding and her bridal jewelry, have you ever wondered how they are feeling with every step of the wedding planning? When I was planning my own wedding, my greatest fear and my most denial is that I will change my last name. I love my name. My father gave his name to me. It is what most of my friends identify me with. When most of my college single friends were telling me that after the wedding I will not have my last name anymore, I didn’t say anything, but I was a bit hurt.

Although my husband was everything to me, it took me a year to finally not make a mistake when I needed to write my new name for some documents and stuff. I sometimes made a mistake even when I was introducing myself and was still saying my old last name out of habit.

Part of the problem was me since I did not identify and accepted this part of the most significant psychological transition a bride can have. There are a lot of tangled emotions going on with the bride and part of dealing with this transition is by talking with someone about your greatest fears. Do not just bottle them up since you would probably feel that you are not even ready to take that next step. As an engaged woman, you must confront and face your inner battles to win over your emotions. Good luck!
