This weekend my mother and I did a “site survey” for my wedding.
Unique ideas for a guest book for your wedding day.
More PhotosWe staked out a wedding taking place at the church where I’m getting married in less than three weeks to see how everything unfolded. Parked strategically across the street from the church, we were able to observe what time the bridal party arrived, where guests were parking, and what time the ceremony started and ended. I even snuck unobtrusively into the back of the church to take a peek at the proceedings in progress!
The experience gave us some good ideas for the logistics on my wedding day. And now that I’ve tackled the wedding day timeline, the next step is communicating all of that logistical information to the wedding party and family members involved.

Popular florists are often booked up to a year in advance, so don’t delay your search. Begin researching by checking with recently married friends for their recommendations. You might also want to ask around at reception venues for names of florists the staff has worked with who might suit your tastes.
2) ASK THE FLORIST! Once you have contenders, narrow your list by posing some questions. Has she worked at your location before? Which flowers will be in season? What does she suggest for your style and budget? The answers will help you make your decision.
3) DISCUSS YOUR IDEAS!
When you’ve hired a florist, show her magazine picture you’ve collected of arrangements you like and those you don’t, and discuss options. Give her a photo of your dress, as your gown can establish the tone for the event. Also provide swatches from your ‘maids’ dresses, so the bouquets will complement them.
4) CONSIDER COSTS!
Be honest about your budget. Your florist should be able to provide floral options within your financial limits that won’t compromise your style.
5) READ THE FINE PRINT!
Your contract should include itemized costs for flowers, plus acceptable substitutes in case the ones you want aren’t available for any reason. It should also specify when and where the flowers will arrive and who will set them up.

The rehearsal meal shouldn’t be about whose obligation it is to be the host (it’s usually the groom’s parents) but how much fun everyone is having.
Who, When, Why, What
WHO
Everyone who is participating in the service will be invited to participate in the fun.
-the bridal couple
-all attendants
-singer or musician performing at the service
-anyone giving a reading at the service
-parents of children in the wedding party
-guests who have travelled from afar to attend the wedding
WHAT
It’s a relaxed party. Why not make it a beer and jeans party? Wine and fondue? Punch and buffet?
There will be lots of laughter, starting at the rehearsal, as everyone practices walking down the aisle and jockeying into place.
The fun will continue at dinner. Include some raucous and naughty toasts.
WHERE
Have it anywhere you like. A BBQ in the back yard. A diner. A country club. A picnic in the park. Or even a picnic in the home, with checked tablecloths, potato salad, slaw, hot dogs and burgers.
WHEN
It’s almost always the evening (or afternoon) before the wedding to allow out-of-towners to be on hand. This is ideal. If, however, the clergy or site can’t fit you in, it may be two days before the wedding, but usually not any earlier.
WHY
The custom of having a rehearsal, followed by a party, is a long tradition that makes good sense. It brings everyone together, perhaps for the first time, so the duties of each for the following day can be reviewed. More importantly, it sets a spirit of comradeship that will jump-start the wedding day.
