How many of you have really thought about WHEN your Traditional Wedding will be held? I'm not talking about the day dreaming we've all done during a work meeting or stuck in traffic hmmm you know yourself!!! I'm referring to the real deep thinking of When you should hold that special day.
So you've said YES, got the ring (get a special manicure so the ring looks extra pretty) and now the planning has begun. Though you have always dreamed of a fairy tale summer Traditional Wedding, at a huge stately home with beautiful greenery.... lets look at these 3 major points.
- Could you think of having an "out of season".. wedding, why you ask... (venues are often cheaper, international guest may be able to reduce their travelling costs). Beautiful pictures can still be taken indoors if the weather doesn't play ball.
- How about holding your Trad during the week rather than a Saturday, (once again, venues are often cheaper during the week; this could also aid in crowd control in addition to cutting cost)
- Do you have to have your Traditional Wedding in the evening??? what rule book says so; You could consider having it as a brunch... i personally love to be different.
Personal Experience:
My husband and I recently celebrated our 10 year wedding anniversary (All glory to God). We often tend to pull a crowd when we have functions so decided to have the celebration on a Friday ( thank God it was the exact date of our wedding). The benefits of this were:
- Cost Cutting
- Crowd Control
- Minimal rowdiness
- Everyone had a seat (no complaining.... "i came all this way, nowhere to sit")
- Displayed elegance, as there was minimal movement up and down as the crowd was of average size
I could go on but I'm sure you get my drift.... I think I've given you enough food for thought ... for today at least.
