planning your celebration

Planning your BIG day! Now that the date is set, the planning can be like climbing Mount Everest. However, you can achieve your goal of a fun, stress free celebration, similar to how people climb Mount Everest. They achieve their goal in small steps. climbing setting a base camp and moving to the next level. When you approach your day is this manner the "mountain" or celebration doesn't look that overwhelming.

To start you on that journey, let's begin by getting the word out. In a world dominated by social media planning your celebration is much easier and fun. One idea that can get ideas as well a communicate your vision to others is, your own Wedding Website.

1. Your wedding site should reflect your personal style as a couple so everyone, even those who can’t attend, can really get to know both of you.

2. Don’t list the website on your actual invitations. Instead, include it on another item enclosed in the packet such as the response card. And don’t overemphasize your gift registry. That’s something that still should be spread by word of mouth.

3. Keep it simple. Don’t make your site so full of details and pages that no one can find the essential information that they are looking for. Remember the K.I.S.S factor. Keep It Simple and Sweet.


4. Keep it focused. Your wedding site is for details about your wedding. Do not include a lot of personal information. Remember, that your friends and relatives are going to be looking at this site for guidance and you want everyone who visits your site to feel comfortable and welcome. Some of your older relatives, or even your parents, may not want to know all of the details of your first kiss.
