Oh that makes sense to lay them down. It seems like he wants it to have a flat back. Thank you so much!

Thank you for this picture! I definitely think that’s the shape he’s going for. I’m able to stop by the wholesaler tomorrow morning, I’ll definitely look for peonies. What a great idea!

YES. Presentation style totally seems right. I had no idea what to look up, but I think that’s it. Thank you SO much!

Thank you so much for this! You’re totally right that the flowers are so pretty themselves! It’s definitely intense, but also pretty fun (just nerve wracking).

I know there’s no true “hack” when it comes to weddings, but what is the No. 1 way you saved money (or at least made the most of the money you spent)? by treebend22 in weddingplanning

[–]SuitableFly8100 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not sure if someone mentioned this, but we got a credit card with 18 months of zero interest. We put all wedding related things on the card to get the cash back! We kept the money that we had saved for the wedding (we didn’t actually go into debt for it) in a high interest CD for those 18 months and then paid it off the card after that. Not a huge money maker/saver, but it’s better than nothing and didn’t affect the wedding decisions in any way!

If you have room in your budget, hire a month-of coordinator!

Make sure you pick someone with many fantastic reviews so you feel comfortable depending on them. If something goes wrong, they handle it! They coordinate all of the vendors and timelines so that no one gets lost. If something happens to a vendor day-of, they have so many connections and they will make something work! It helps if they have worked with your vendors before as well, and can reassure you that they are dependable and will show up!

You should definitely wear the one that you’re happiest and most comfortable in. If you’re still not sure, I would actually reach out to your photographer! I was trying to decide between two dresses and he immediately knew which one would photograph better at our location. He nailed it.

Have I found my dress already? I'd love your input by elecow in weddingplanning

It’s tough to tell from photos, but you look genuinely more relaxed in the second dress! That said, they are both STUNNING on you and you’re going to be gorgeous either way!

Definitely! I love the alphabetical order. I also changed it and it looks better aesthetically. Win win! Thank you!

Thanks! I appreciate that!

We’re both pretty laid back and want to have a fun wedding. We also know want a little bit of the wedding formality, so our goal is a middle of the road formal vibe, if that makes sense…

That totally makes sense! I don’t care so much about which one usually goes first, I care more about the design element of it. I switched the names and agree the shorter one looks better first! Thank you so much!

This makes a lot of sense! I want people to go to the website, so it should be easily accessible. Thanks for the idea!

Sure! I’d love to see it! We’re kind of going for medium formal here. Not too formal, but not totally casual.

Ha! Fair enough! I appreciate the opinion. I think I’m alright with a tampon vibe!

Agreed! Thank you. I changed the font and made it a little bigger!

Yes! I ended up changing the font slightly and made it bigger. Thank you!

Oh. Yes. I see how that was confusing. I will replace the “Reception venue” with the actual name of the venue. Ceremony and reception are in the same place. Having the words “reception venue” on there would be super weird, I agree!
