The tone of the invitation should match the style of the wedding. From the elegance of a black tie evening to the simple afternoon in the garden, the style of your invitations are as endless as your imagination.
The wording of an invitation usually follows a specific style that celebrates all parties involved. Enclosures in the invitation, though not required, are a considerate touch that help clarify the details. Enclosures to consider are a menu-choice card, a map, a rain location card and hotel information for out of town guests. Reception cards are beneficial to your quests especially if the reception is in a different location than the ceremony.
The important key to find the right reception location is based on time of year and your tentative guest list. Reserve your church or ceremony location first to avoid disappointment. Most brides like to keep their ceremony locations and reception sites close to accommodate their quests. When looking at reception facilities always ask the coordinator if packages can be created to work with in your schedule and budget.
Your wedding reception options are limitless. Whether you choose indoor, outdoor, banquet halls or garden catered. Your wedding can traditionally elegant or beautifully modern.
Couples are continuously looking for unique ways to present the meal. Your choices are numerous, from hor d’oeuvres to a full meal. Meat stations to desert tables, wine and cheese, family style dinners are becoming popular as well. Your wedding day will be full of special moments that you will treasure for many year, but your wedding day will be over much sooner than you realize. Photographs will serve to remind you of that special day.
Photographers have a wide range of photographic styles to choose from. View their sample portfolios to choose the style that best suits your wedding. Each photographer will have some wonderful ideas on fantastic photo locations. Wedding photography can be shot in many different styles from traditional to the unique. Wedding photographers can shoot in black and white and/or full color. Ask your photographer for the benefits of traditional verses digital film. Discuss the packages that are available and know what you are going to get with each one. Keep in mind that you are going to remember your wedding day through the eyes, heart and talent of your photographer, so do your best to choose well. Consider asking if they will provide negatives to your pictures or a CD of the shoot. They may charge an additional fee for this service, but it will be well worth it if you choose to print more down the road. Technology is advancing and with it the possibilities, so good luck with your black tie affair.
