Question of the Day

Monday, March 28, 2011
Where to start??? 12 Months to go.
have to plan this whole thing,where do I start?." Although it seems overwhelming don't let
the stress get to you. When broken down even the biggest tasks are manageable. I am sure
you have heard the saying:"A journey of a thousand miles must begin with a single step".
Well the same is to be said about planning your wedding.
ATC is here for you to break things down and let you enjoy all aspects of the big day.
Once a week we will be detailing the wedding timeline,what you should be doing when to give
you a little bit of guidance and structure to make planning easier for you.
A few things to think about 12 + months before your anticipated wedding date:
Are you dreaming of a lavish,black tie affair? A celebration with all your
friends and family present. Maybe a cozy,more intimate gathering is more
your style,just family and those closest to you. There is no wrong idea.
Either party would be fabulous-just make sure to think about you want and
are most comfortable with. Keep your venue and colors in mind while planning. If you envision a pink and lime green wedding, I don't know that typical ballroom with red and gold carpet will be the match for you.
*What's the budget? *
Ah the budget...probably not the most enjoyable aspect to discuss,but could be
argued that it may be the most important. Who is paying and what will their contribution
be? Get these details hammered out in the beginning and let the planning begin!
*Start interviewing and gathering vendor recommendations*
Complimentary consultations are always available with ATC. We also have preferred vendors that are personally recommended. Trust us we have seen their work and can vouch for them and what is better than a word of mouth recommendation?
*What is your preferred wedding date?*
Is there a date with a special meaning for the two for you? Sometimes a wedding date depends on the availability of a venue that you have fallen in love with. Decide what is important to you.
Start seeking out venues for your ceremony and reception.
*The dress*
When a girl dreams of her wedding day-the 2nd thing she is probably dreaming of is "the dress".(The first thing of course is the handsome groom :)! Starting early makes sense. There are so many choices. Allow yourself time to select something that is perfect for you.
Don't forget to get your groom involved,remember it's his special day too! And of course more help
always make tasks easier to tackle.
