Bay Area Bridal Wedding Tips

When planning your Bay Area bridal shower or wedding day, there are a few things that come into play. How many people will be attending your big day? This will affect how much food you need, seating as well as the location. Everything hangs in the balance over how many people will attend. If your desired location will only hold 120 attendees, you have to include the wedding participants in this number. So look over your guest list and decide way ahead of time how many you will invite.
Also important in planning your Bay Area bridal or wedding day, is the dress. Depending on your budget and upbringing, many women like the idea of using their mother’s wedding dress as the something borrowed item required. If you want your own dress however, be prepared to spend a pretty penny. Many dress shops offer lower priced dresses from $500 and above, but finding one you like that is in your budget may be hard. It may be best to purchase a lower priced dress and then make alterations to it yourself in order to get the dress you really want. Many seamstresses are available I the local phone book, and offer affordable prices for creating the look you want to achieve. You should allow for at least 6 months if you take this route, as creating the perfect dress includes multiple fittings and opportunities to see the progress that is being made.
Lastly, your location has much to do with the budget as well. If you are planning an outdoor wedding, remember that based on the time of year and normal weather patterns, you may need tents for shelter. This is a cost that so many women overlook when planning an outdoor wedding. There are multiple companies on the internet as well as in the phone book in the Bay Area that offer these services.

Bay Area Bridal Ideas

There always seems to be a plethora of information on Bay Area bridal ideas from everyone you talk to, but ultimately the choice is your own. Therefore it pays to be educated in the options that you have available in your budget and area. Here are a few ideas for those on a tight budget that still want a fantastic and memorable day.
Outdoor weddings cost less overall than those held indoors. For the most part, if you have a favorite park, you can contact the Parks Department in the blue pages of the phone book. Some parks require a deposit be paid for the use of the park, while others ask for donations and most all require you to have a permit for the time you will be in the park for your festivities. This can also be obtained through information given at the Parks Department. Without paying for a hall rental or church wedding, you save more money to spend on other things like your dress or honeymoon.
The Bay Area bridal wedding guides found on so many sites suggest using a planner. However, if you are on a budget, a planner is not necessarily at the top of the list. Once you have your wedding date, you should start planning no less than 9 months in advance. If your big day will be in months from February to August, you should start planning a full year ahead of time; this is the busiest time of year for weddings and most all businesses will be booked or very busy during your big day. So planning ahead will help you to secure your spot on the list. Be prepared to pay a deposit for any services you request ahead of time to make sure your date is saved for your service provider.

Do wedding thank you cards have to personalized or can they be generic?

Hi everyone! We are having our wedding in August and are already receiving wedding gifts from our registry in the mail. We are sending out thank you cards out immediately after so they don’t pile up. So we are wondering, if people have already received thank you cards for gifts before the wedding, do we need to send personal thank you cards after the wedding too? Or should we just send a more generic card with our wedding photo? Any suggestions? Thanks!
