It truly was the perfect day! All of your dreams and months of planning made for a most incredible wedding day. The wedding planners executed every detail, the DJ had the guests dancing the night away, every bite of the cake was eaten, and the photographer captured every precious moment. Now, it’s the end of the perfect night, and you are thinking, “How do I show appreciation to all those who made my wedding day so wonderful?” For starters, be the model bride. Always give a personalized note of appreciation to all those involved from the wedding planner and the vendors to special family and friends. Additionally, by showing the extra consideration to post a great review on the various vendor wedding blogs, those who worked hard to make your wedding perfect will be greatly appreciative of your glowing reviews. Then, there is a monetary tip. Although it is not always customary, it is always appreciated. Many ask this question, “ Just what is the etiquette on tipping after a wedding?” by Kimberly Boatman-Frazer
RECIPIENT Planner
Religious Officiant Non-Denominational Officiant Civil Officiant
SHOULD I? HOW MUCH?
NOTE
up to 20% - or gift
You have probably become great friends with your wedding planner. A nice bottle of wine and a glowing recommendation on her website, google+ and facebook make the best tip.
gift or $100 donation
Officiants aren’t usually tipped, but a thoughtful gift or charitable donation to the house of worship is totally acceptable.
$50 - $100 None
Generally local laws prohibit tipping and the giving of any gifts.
15% - 20%
Often the percentage is included in the catering contract. Ask how the tips will be divided among the staff. If it is not included talk to the catering manager to see what is customary.
if gratuity is not included 10% - 15% of liquor bill
Often the bartenders tips come from the Maitre D and wait staff tips. Read your contract carefully.
Musicians / DJ
15% - 20%
This is usually paid after the reception.
Chauffeurs
15% - 20%
Paid at the last ride.

Choosing your wedding gown is one of the most exciting parts of planning your wedding. Check out all the latest fashions online, but we recommend you do not buy from online stores. You need to be sure what you are buying.
Keep in mind that although you may like a certain style of dress it might not be the right one for you. Make sure you try on all sorts of styles, colors, and shapes.
Once you have an idea of what you are looking for, visit your local professional bridal consultant. They will be able to help you find the dress that best suits your body type, budget and dreams!
"Jack it up" (as they say on TLC's Say Yes to the Dress) when you find one that makes you glow. It is about the whole package! From the shoes, to the veil, to the bling ... every little detail counts on your special day!

THE MONEY THING It is expensive to be a bridesmaid especially if the bride plans a destination wedding. Plus the Bridesmaids are responsible to plan a bridal shower and bachelorette party at their own expense! You are asking your friend to spend upwards of $1,000 before they even buy you a gift! Their dress, shoes, jewelry, and travel expenses are not always covered by the wedding couple, so have a conversation right up front about expenses. SHORTER DRESSES Many designers are coming out with the newest crop of tea length dresses. They are bringing the hems up and showing a little leg. The added benefit? These less traditional bridesmaid dress can be worn again and again. MATCHING FIGURES Choosing a dress that flatters all the bridesmaids can be challenging. You may opt for the bridesmaid selecting the style that best fits her body type from a designer line. SHOES Matching shoes give the wedding party a finished look. While most Bridesmaids would prefer to wear their own comfortable shoes, matching will prevent a stark contrast between the shoes and dress. Try shoes of neutral colors.

Guest lists can be tricky things. Every guest you invite adds to the cost of the wedding. Traditionally the couple gets half the guest list and each set of parents gets a quarter. So if you're planning to invite 200 people, you invite 100 guests, your parents invite 50 and your fiancÊ’s parents invite 50.
Rule 2 - Do not invite if neither of you have spoken to them in three years, or if they're not related to you.
When it comes to cutting the numbers, following these simple rules will help:
Rule 3 - Do not invite people on the list because you feel guilty about leaving them off.
Rule 1 - Do not invite if neither of you haven't heard their name before.
Rule 4 - An adults-only wedding is perfectly acceptable if you prefer not to have children.

stationery planner Choosing just the right stationery will set your wedding day apart from the very beginning. Whether formal, casual, elegant or whimsical, properly chosen stationery will give your event a unified look. Destination weddings are very popular on Florida’s West Coast, so Save the Dates are a must. They can be fun or formal, either way it gives your guests plenty of time to book air, hotels and rental cars. Many of your out of town guests may plan a vacation around the wedding, so give them the time they need to prepare. Don’t forget to order extra of everything. Your guest list may unexpectedly grow and there are always typos you can count on. Plus you’ll want to be sure to keep some for your scrapbook.

etiquette revealed KEEP IT SIMPLE. Don’t try to squeeze too many items into your invite envelope. As the first element of your wedding guests see, stationery should truly represent the theme of your big day. IS A SAVE-THE-DATE CARD NECESSARY? The save-the-date card is often your first announcement to the world that you are getting married and to make sure that your friends and family can join you on this momentous occasion. This is the perfect opportunity to provide your guests with important information about the wedding. So, while save-the-date cards are not a necessity, they are very important when you are planning a wedding that falls on a holiday weekend or is considered a “destination” for most of your guests. WHAT’S ESSENTIAL TO INCLUDE IN AN INVITATION? Wedding “essentials” would include the reception card and the response card. Other enclosure cards should be based on a specific couple’s needs or special circumstances that may need to be expressed along with the invitation. We recommend that couples do not try to squeeze too many elements into your invitations like itineraries, registry information and special requests. Instead create a wedding newsletter or wedding website that will allow you to include all the extra details. INVITATIONS? Four months before the wedding the couple should order their wedding invitations with the goal to mail out the invitations to guests six to eight weeks before the big day. However, we recommend that you don’t send them out less than eight weeks in advance for out-of-town guests. In this case couples should also make sure to include response cards requesting that guests respond no later than three to four weeks before the event. WHAT SHOULD COUPLES AVOID WHEN DESIGNING AN INVITE? Couples love to personalize all aspects of the wedding. However, we caution that couples avoid too much personalization. Keep it simple by adding a monogram or meaningful quote. Don’t try to fit so many elements onto your invitations that it takes away from the beauty of the design itself.

Gone are the days where your choice of wedding venue is limited to a church or hotel ballroom. To get everyone talking, think outside the box!
vendors
While churches or hotel ballrooms are fantastic options for a gorgeous ceremony setting, the sky is the limit on Florida's West Coast! You could tie the knot on the beach with a blazing sunset as your backdrop. What about under grand oak trees at an outdoor venue. Or how about one of the historical
mansions or grand country clubs located right around the corner? Think about your guest list and maximum number of people that may attend. Can the venue of your dreams accommodate everything you hoped for? If yes, do not wait to book your venue! The best are often booked a year or more in advance.

BE PREPARED If you are meeting with a vendor for the first time, bring photos of designs that you like, and know your budget. DO YOUR RESEARCH Know the style of the vendor you are going to meet. If you are more traditional it may be a waste of your time to meet with a vendor that has an artsy style. CONFIRM Vendors should confirm the appointment with you, however, if they have not‌ shoot them an email. If something should arise that you cannot make the appointment, contact the vendor and let them know. Never stand someone up! BE RESPECTFUL Respect is earned and is a two-way street. Vendors should treat you and your family with respect. You should as well, rolling your eyes at their prices is not in your best interest. INTERVIEWING YOU Know that vendors are sizing you up and interviewing you as well as you are interviewing them. The best vendors are very busy on Florida's West Coast, they don’t need to spend their much desired time with a crazy person all day long. Many have a choice.

cake tasting chart Weddings cakes have gotten a bad rap because so often the focus has been on the decorating rather than the taste. Today there’s good news for lovers of cake. The trend is moving towards concern about what’s underneath the frosting, too. Sampling cakes and frosting before selecting a wedding cake is very popular. So go ahead and schedule tastings with local bakers. It’s a sweet treat to add to your to-do list. If you need to save some bucks without sacrificing flavor or design, have a “smaller” display cake created. The bride and groom cut the cake and it is sent back to the kitchen for cutting. Additional sheet cakes kept in the kitchen, with the same flavor as your display, or with different tastes can also be served. Guests won’t know which cake their slice is from. Another idea is to use a pre-decorated topper with your cake below. It gives the illusion of a big cake, without the cost. Sheet cakes can again be cut in the kitchen. A delicious way to stay within budget.

There’s no denying that planning a wedding can be totally overwhelming ...
planning tools
Between finding the perfect venue, detailing all the logistics and on top of that, overwhelming yourself by creating Pinterest boards on steroids, sometimes it’s easy to focus on the little details that can make your wedding extra special, while letting the mundane (yet important) details slide.
A little organization can help you amp up your wedding’s wow factor and make a big impression with your guests. From a wedding day timeline that will let you easily plan hour by hour, to a pre-made photographer checklist that you can use as a guideline, we are here to help you walk through your wedding day!

the classic reception timeline Photo by Binary Flips Photography
5 p.m. cocktail hour
Cocktail hour is just that, 1 hour. If you plan to take your photos during that time, don’t go past an hour and 15 minutes. You have to keep the momentum going. Be sure your musicians strike up the band with a varied repertoire.
6 p.m. reception begins
The wait staff should now let your guests know it is time to enter the reception room. By now table assignments have been picked up by the guests, but in case there is some confusion, have someone with an alphabetical list and seating plan to assist.
6:10 p.m. 6:20 p.m. welcome toast
Typically the bride’s father welcomes everyone to the wedding reception and thanks them for coming. Some couples choose to do toasts here, but most wait until later in the wedding reception. If you wish to say a blessing over the meal now is the time.
6:30 p.m. dinner is served
Shortly after dinner is served, the best man makes his toast. If the maid of honor is making a toast, she follows. After the main course is served if other family members or members of the bridal party are making toasts, they do so now.
7:30 p.m. the first dance
8:30 p.m. the cake cutting
9:30 p.m. bouquet and/or garter toss
The Master of Ceremonies announces the couple. This will be the first time the bride and groom will dance as husband and wife. After that the bride dances with her Father. The groom and his mother may join them on the floor or choose a song of their own. You can surprise your parents and in-laws by playing their first-dance songs after your own first dance. Announce the songs and their significance, and invite the wedding party to dance, and finally all the guests can join in. The Band should be wrapping up their first set. The caterer should have the cake table prepared with the cake knife and two glasses of champagne or a perfectly paired wine. Now is the time for the Bride and groom to make their toasts. All guests should have a glass of champagne or wine pairing. Although it is not required, it is very nice for the couple to say thank you to everyone, and especially to their parents. Some older guests will leave after cake is served so be sure that you’ve had a chance to visit with them beforehand. If you choose to have a bouquet or garter toss, typically the people who caught them dance together.
10:00 p.m. last dance
The MC should invite everyone to the floor for a last dance together. Choose a fun and upbeat song so that everything ends on a high note.
10:15 p.m. bride and groom depart
Some couples choose to simply leave with their guests, but planning something creative makes your exit much more memorable. Consider giving guests sparklers, candles or bells. Think about arranging a special getaway vehicle; a unique car or boat is sure to wow your guests.
10:30 p.m. after-party
N
The bridal party and then the bride and groom are announced
44 Nuovo Bride
This is a great way to keep the celebration going after the reception. It is best to limit the party to one and a half to two hours. You can estimate that 30-40% of your guests will continue on to the after-party.
ceremony
&
reception music
Music is a major part of the ceremony and reception and should planned carefully. It creates the mood and will give your event that personalized touch your guests will appreciate. Here are a couple of things to keep in mind when planning. Your ceremony venue may have some musical restrictions. However most have a list at the ready with recommended musicians that should work beautifully. Sometimes those musicians may be available to play during cocktail hour as well. DJ’s are another option. They can often do double duty as MC. If hiring a DJ or a band, ask to stop by one of their events and see if they fit the bill. Always check references!

The checklist for the wedding photographer can be quite extensive. Consulting with your photographer in advance will help you decide whether to add or delete certain shots, as well as ensure all the shots you want will be taken. If you don’t have a wedding planner or a “day of ” person, it is a very good idea to have someone responsible assigned to get all the people together for each shot.
