Choosing the Date
When choosing a date
take into consideration things such as will guests need to travel
to be there? do you have fixed holidays which will effect when
you can have your honeymoon, availability of the bridal party
etc. Getting married during a football final, Melbourne Cup day
or other event will not make you impress your guests so try and
take these into account as well.
Once you have an approximate
date, begin looking at reception and ceremony venues. This is
normally the hard part and other things such as cars, florists
etc. can be booked around it.
