I recently just got engaged on Friday July 1, 2011. My Fiance and I will start planning our wedding soon. But the thought of it is very overwhelming. Your Vlog was so helpful thank you for the tips because I honestly have no idea where to start
Congratulations! I really loved the wedding planning book The "W" Day by Giulia Macchia - The W Book. Tons of beautiful pictures and easy to follow and realistic tips. You'll love it.
thanks for the recommendation on the books & website. my fiance & i haven't set a date yet, but when we do i will be registering at that site, it looks very helpful. congrats to you & good luck with planning! :)
You should get the book "Bridal Bargains" by Denise and Alan Fields. It is a great book that is full of tips to save a ton of money on your wedding! Congrats!
oh...I have a suggestion! My sister saved a TON of money by going to this girls website called "fire your wedding planner" sooooo much info on how to save money on planning your wedding!! :) I cant wait to see the rest of your vlogs!
another tip ... if you're not comfortable with one of the vendors its not worth it. work with someone NICE and helpful and genuine -- it'll show! even when its when choosing your cake and flowers etc. also things might not turn out perfectly (our florists forgot to put flowers on our cake and used birds of paradise on our center pieces instead of another pink type of flower!) but i called him and he came and fixed the cake -- and the centerpieces everyone loved -- very original and pretty!!
hey girl! congrats! i got married a couple months ago and went to hawaii for my honeymoon it was beautiful! some tips for wedding stuff: dont wait until last minute!! i stayed up until 6 am working on place cards and at the same time i was working on my masters degree and working two jobs! i was stressed out!!!!!!!! so try not to stress so much and have so much fun doing everything!
also make sure you just ask people for recommendations on where to buy things and vendors!
beautiful proposal! REALLY enjoyed watching this, getting married this september and have lots of ideas in pictures in a folder on the computer, at stationery stage at moment! dress part is so fun by the way,i cant wait to wear mine! xx
omg! i was getting kinda teary hearing your proposal story!! i especially love the fact that both sides of the family were there. so cute and perfect!!! :) omgoshhh im so happy for you!
my sister did that binder thing and it did help her alot she decorated the front with pictures of them engaged and the back was of the actual wedding day u should also pic a color scheme
congratulationss :) That was about the cutest proposal ever!!! :) My Friend is getting married, and is struggling with stuff lol, so i was wondering if when you get the tabs and such labelled in your binder you could mention it Thankss :)
I just got married in October. My advice is just to enjoy it and soak it all in. It's such an awesome experience/day. Have so much fun with every little detail and try not to stress :) Congrats again!
My birthday is May 27th!!! Haha well I wish u the best with your new hubby! I love this vlog idea btw! U have to show us your wedding dress! What color do you want your brides maids dresses to be?
I wish I had done more research almost 9 years ago when I got married!! I would say definitely don't commit to anything unless you are absolutely in LOVE with it. And don't do business with friends or family, it could end up biting you in the butt like it did me. Also, flowers are HUGE part of the budget because they can get very expensive.I wanted to be a wedding planner awhile ago and took some online classes...there are so many little things people don't think about when planning a wedding.
Congratulations. You look sweet. I wish I had known about these things 10 years ago when I got married. But I can use it to plan other parties, maybe in a smaller scale.
Anyway I like your vlogs, they inspirer me. I am looking forward to following your wedding. Greetings from Denmark, Anja
How sweet! Like a movie :). Its nice that your moving in until you get married. I'm not engaged or anything but those are my plans as well, I'm glad that there are other girls that think the same way. Congratulations!
Thank you SOOO much for doing this. you can tell that you're getting more comfortable in front of the camera lol. congrats! I am SO looking forward to your updates.
Your wedding is just like mine was, I got married in front of a gazebo with the lake right behind us and then the reception was upstairs of the resort... i love weddings! obviously because i listened to this vlog even though i am already married (hehe)
@shopgurl33 You should go ahead and do your own make up...but u should get your hair done by a professional---that way you don't have to worry or rush the day of and it will give you a time to rest while your getting your hair done....The day goes by very quickly and u want to rest as much as you can :)
congratulations!! im sooo happy for you!! and it's even cuter that you guys are high school sweethearts!! you should make a short video of pictures of you and him from high school through now! that'd be cutee!!!!!
I was engaged 3 months after i turned 19, and married a month before i was 20! This june i will have been married for FOUR years, im 23 now and a month later ill turn 24! Time flies so fast, you wont belive how fast it flies until you experience it!
aww the picture of your proposal is so cute!!! You are going to be a gorgeous bride!! Make sure to show us the makeup that you are going to be wearing for your wedding day :]
i had this friend that pruposed to his gf like this: they were in a helicopter, and they jumped, and on the ground there was a BIG like "towel" and it said: "Maire, would you marry me?" and it was so cool!! and then when they where on the ground he knelled and asked her with the ring on his hands!! so cute!!
@gossipgirl18425 I was 20 (a month away from 21) when we got engaged. When we get married I'll be 22 (a couple months from 23). We've been together for almost 7 years (high school sweethearts) so we couldn't wait any longer! (o:
I got proposed to on a beach too, it's so romantic! My number one tip is to do what you like, and try your best to keep it on a budget, everything adds up real quick and it's just one day. I'm so happy for you!
My only advice for you is the advice I wish I would have listened to more. Do what YOU guys want to do. If that means a completely traditional wedding do it. If it is a wedding with rainbow unicorns for decorations do it! Whatever makes you happy. Otherwise, you'll end up with somebody else's wedding. You can't make everyone happy but you can make yourselves happy!
@rajkumarijaan2 We've been together for about 6 1/2 years (high school sweethearts) We are moving in together after we get married, partly because of money and also because of our beliefs.
What happened to the pic? lol The lizard is cute! Congrats!!! Make sure you get everything you want! Don't let your family/friends persuade to do anything you don't want. This is all about you two! I wish I had that Wedding Planning Plus book! Also remember your phone has a power button lol
congrats on picking a date! excited to see some more updates... btw, i love your earrings! it would be cool if you did a vlog together, even though u said he would'nt want to, it would be fun!
thats an amazing picture congratulations
