A Few Things to Do as Soon as You Get Engaged

Putting the engagement ring on your finger is, undoubtedly, one of the biggest and happiest moments of your entire life. What to do as soon as you get engaged, though? We have some tips for you – so read on and find out more.

• ·        First of all, don’t post anything on Facebook or Instagram – not until you actually call your parents and break the great news for them. You don’t want your mom to be the last one to find out, right?
• ·         Furthermore, it is also advisable that you register for one or two stores at least. Although it is not mandatory, your guests may want to bring gifts at your engagement party – and giving them some options to choose from is a good idea.
• ·         Plan the engagement ring. You can have it as formal or informal as you feel is appropriate for your particular situation. The most important thing is that you are happy with how it turns out!
• ·         Don’t jump right into planning the wedding. Take a couple of weeks off, clear your mind, spend time with your loved one – enjoy yourself. The months ahead are going to be quite difficult, so now is the time to charge your batteries for the long run.
• ·         Last, but definitely not least, when you finally sit down and start planning the Big Day, be sure you don’t start out without a clear budget in mind. From the guest list to the venue, theme and dress, every single decision from now on will be connected to your budget too.

How to Make Sure You Choose the Right Photographer for Your Wedding

Your wedding is a splendid event in your life – and you really want every single element of it to be flawless. Unfortunately though, human memory cannot retain all of the details – and especially not over long periods of time. This is precisely why it is extremely important that you choose the right photographer for your wedding – to make sure all of the beauty, candor and emotions are perfectly captured in wedding photography worth a million words.

How to do it? How to choose the right photographer for your Big Day? Here are 3 tips to help you narrow down the list of options:

• ·         Start by setting a very clear, very realistic budget. How much can you pay for a photographer’s work? Be very realistic about the price! The truth is most of the very good photographers will charge quite a lot for their services, so if you want to hire a top notch photography pro for your wedding, expect to pay a larger fee.
• ·         Furthermore, analyze their portfolios too. Look at the style, technique and types of photos they are best at. Are they really suitable for your wedding style too? If not, it’s better to skip and work with someone whose style is fully suitable for you and who you are as a couple.
• ·         Last, but definitely not least, your photographer’s personality matters too. Remember, it is highly recommendable that you feel genuinely comfortable around your photographer (given that their camera will already make you feel a bit odd). Talk to the photographer of your choice and see how you communicate with them!

4 Reasons to Wear Flats on Your Big Day

All brides want to look splendid on their wedding day – and, as a bride-to-be, you definitely know every small detail can make a huge difference in how you feel as you walk down the aisle. Does this mean you absolutely have to wear heels at your wedding? Even more, what are the main reasons to wear flats on your Big Day? We have gathered some of the most important ones to convince you – so read on and find out more.

•           It is far more comfortable than wearing a pair of heels – which also means you will be able to actually spend time on the dance floor. Even if you are used to wearing high heels, dancing in them can be highly painful – especially if it’s for an extended period of time.
•        You want to stay safe. Regardless of how well-accustomed you are with heels, you will always be more prone to accidents wearing them, rather than wearing flats. If you want to avoid tripping over something, the latter option is best for you.
•       You want to wear your shoes again. You will only wear your wedding attire once – so why not make an exception with the shoes and pick a pair that’s pretty and comfortable, so that you can wear it on other occasions too?
•        You simply don’t know how to walk in heels. If you have never (or very rarely) worn heels before, you will feel very odd at your own wedding. Instead of focusing on negative feelings, wear a pair of shoes you are actually comfortable with and enjoy the night! This is a truly unforgettable celebration in your life!

• In general, the cons of having a Thanksgiving wedding are connected to the higher prices. Because this is a holiday most people want to celebrate with families, you will be charged extra both for airfares and for the vendors too.

At the same time, you should also be aware that there may be people you love and cherish and who might not be able to make it to your wedding precisely due to the nature of this holiday.
