Planning Tipc
For Brides
From JNS.org
eep these tips in mind
while planning your
big day.
• A ketubah can take nearly
six weeks to be ready, so order
early.
• Order flower girl dresses
with the wedding dress because
they can take up to 6 months
to be ready. Alternatively, buy
dresses directly from a store.
• Hire a driver. It's a lot easier
to have someone who knows
where to go.
• A rented tuxedo can be cut
differently from a purchased one.
Research the options.
• Delegate tasks to different
people.
• Consider an afternoon wed-
ding to avoid exhaustion. If it's
a Sunday wedding, this will give
out of town guests enough time
to fly back and make it to work
on Monday.
• Leave enough time for pic-
tures and have a photo list so
you don't forget important family
pictures.
• Include do-it-yourself proj-
ects, with the clothes, bouquets
or other decorations. These can
be a great bonding experience
with your bridal party or fam-
ily, add a personal touch to the
day and are a good way to keep
within a budget.
• Pictures are all you have to
remember your wedding day by,
so pick a good photographer or
invest in a great one.
• Hire a videographer to shoot
only raw footage and then edit
the video yourself. This can also
make for a fun activity as well as
a way to relive the wedding with
your new spouse.
• Read all of your vendor con-
tracts. Negotiate the details and
don't pay the whole sum to ven-
dors until the work is completed
in a satisfactory manner. It seems
like a hassle, but arguing with
bad vendors over bad contracts
is a lot worse.
• If you're inviting many out-
of-town guests, consider hosting
the wedding at a hotel near the
airport.
