Proposing marriage or accepting an engagement ring is usually very romantic for both members of a couple. On the other hand, the wedding planning that follows is usually the opposite of romantic in its demands and stress. If a couple uses the following tips, however, they can maintain the romance of their relationship even while planning the wedding.

Brides who want to sparkle might like to add some flashy stones to their bouquet, including rhinestones, Swarovski crystals, and even diamonds. This can be done with the addition of adhesive or thermally attached crystals, smaller pieces of costume jewelry and maybe even a cherished heirloom. Make sure it goes with your dress and accessories, and that the color, cut, and size of the stones compliment your ensemble.

Grooms should ensure that the tuxedo is tailored to fit perfectly. Ask trusted friend or family to give you an honest appraisal of the tuxedo you are considering. Keep in mind you and your bride will be the main focus at the wedding, so the appearance you present should be the best one possible.

Purchasing your gown on the Internet can save you thousands of dollars, but it's important to buy early so you'll have time to alter it before the big day. I only spent $100 on my gown when I was married, but I spent another $200 on having it altered. When deciding how much to spend, remember to include the cost of alterations.

If you need to look great on your wedding day but money is a bit tight, then considering renting rather than buying any diamonds used in the wedding. You can get the stunning look without spending too much money.

Make sure you write down your vows, this is very important and will be important for your spouse. Your vows are a reflection of the strength of your commitment to your partner. Concentrate on the sacrifices you are happy to make for the sake of the marriage when writing your vows. Use your vows to publicly declare the love and dedication you feel for your beloved.

A midday reception may be the perfect way to cut costs at your wedding. Most people will drink less at this time, which can cut down on your bar needs. Lunch receptions are often cheaper and will allow you to use more money toward other needs for the wedding.

If the groom and bride love to travel, try to look for decorations that incorporate that particular theme. Invitations and save-the-date notices can be made to look like aged or vintage postcards and boarding passes. You could use a worn leather suitcase to display things such as your wedding program, photographs, or favors for the guest.

Individual centerpieces at each table can quickly add up to a big expense, unless you keep them simple. Don't crowd the entire table with one centerpiece; instead, find a more simple option. You will then allow people to have a conversation without unnecessary distractions; this will bring your guests closer.

Flowers that may be common in your state might not be readily available at your wedding location, due to differences in the climate. You should get in touch with professionals who work near your wedding's location to learn about which flowers can be easily obtained.

You can turn one of your friends into a "mail-order minister" so that she can officiate the ceremony. This can not only save you money, but can also add a touch of personality to your ceremony. First, make sure your area allows this to happen.

There are many things to take into account if you are planning to have a wedding while pregnant. For example, shopping for wedding dresses becomes trickier. Although it sounds like an obvious idea, you have to ensure that the dress you choose is going to be able to adapt to your expanding figure.
