One Shoulder Ball Gowns
There are plenty of strappy and strapless wedding dresses out there, but you rarely see any single-strap styles. Above-the-knee Hemlines

Melissa Sweet’s Jake style incorporates a taffeta ¾ sleeve jacket with a mid-thigh, “mini-skirt” hemline. Lavender Colored
Almost every wedding dress ever made is white, off-white, eggshell, or some other shade of the white-hued family. Cotton Lace Overlay
While most dresses are basic silk, satin, or tulle, some are nestled underneath an overlay of cotton lace to create a more textured appearance. Melissa Sweet’s Hallie style dress features a silk charmeuse strapless gown underneath a sheer French lace overlay. Ultra-Slim Gown
While slim wedding gowns do not flare outward around the legs, ultra-slim gowns practically cling to the legs. For instance, a white silk scarf perfectly complements Platinum’s Silk Crepe Georgette Strapless Slim Gown and its scoop neckline. Flounced Halter Neckline
Standard halter wedding dresses are not all that unusual, but a flounced halter leaves no doubt as to whom the center of attention is at the event. The flounced halter neckline contrasts nicely with the dress’s open back.

The Wedding MC or Master of Ceremonies plays a very important role at the reception.

The Wedding MC is responsible for making sure the reception runs smoothly. Here is a short list of Wedding MC Duties for the Emcee who doesn’t know what to do:

1. Introduces Himself or Herself as the Wedding MC

2. Introduces The Bride and Groom’s Parents, The Bridal Party, And The Newlyweds

A professional Wedding MC will ensure that he or she has the correct pronunciation for everyone who is introduced.

3. Makes Announcements Throughout The Event

The Emcee will periodically provide information throughout the reception.

Since announcements are usually dull and boring, this is the perfect opportunity for a creative Emcee to put some fun and humor into this part of the MC Duties.

4. Organizes The Wedding Speeches And Toasts

The Master of Ceremonies introduces the speakers and those making wedding toasts.

This is another opportunity to be an entertainer with MC Jokes as speakers are introduced.

5. Delivers The Wedding MC Speech If Asked To Do So

Sometimes the bride and groom don’t wish to have a lot of speeches or toasts and ask the Emcee to make a speech and toast instead.

6. Follows The Reception Agenda

The reception agenda is a timeline of all the events that will take place throughout the event.

7. Ensures The Various Details Of The Reception Are Attended To

The Master of Ceremonies’ duties are all encompassing – from checking the venue facilities to consulting with the planners to making sure the bride and groom have a memorable time.

Choose the Perfect Wedding Venue

A perfect wedding venue will definitely make your wedding a dream wedding and an unforgettable experience for the guests.

When you are looking for a wedding venue, finalize your wedding guest list because seating arrangement for the guests should be adequate and enough for all the guests. Parking facilities or valet parking is also essential for a hassle free wedding-venue. The decoration of the wedding-venue is of prime importance, even if you are going for a small wedding. The wedding-venue that you are considering might have an in-house wedding planner. Catering is the most important aspect of wedding. A perfect wedding-venue should have an all-inclusive services including catering.

Say in a Wedding Invitation

Take, for example the wedding invitations. In that case your wedding invitations may give your names and issue an invitation to the nuptials. In that case, the wedding invitation wording may reflect this big move. There are many samples of wedding invitations and wedding invitation wording on the Internet. Some couples choose to obtain blank invitation cards and print their own, others choose standard invitations that allow having their names inserted into the wording to make the invitations personal. If you want, you can meet with a wedding consultant to choose the wording to express your style for your wedding day. Wedding invitation wording may actually be more of an announcement.

Wedding planners and other wedding vendors are often targets for unscrupulous business practices.

1) A bride and groom from another country emails you asking you to be their wedding planner

Do not accept cashier’s checks and never accept checks with large amounts of extra money that you need to pay to someone else.

2) You get an email or phone call saying you have been voted “The Best Wedding Planner in Your City”

The company was selling plaques! Do not be tricked by these fake awards.

3) An official-sounding business bureau calls to say people are asking about your business

A representative from a company who says they investigate consumer complaints says someone has inquired about your business, wanting to know if there had been any complaints against you.

4) Wedding and event planning schools tell you that you are the perfect candidate

You do not need a certification to become a wedding planner. Many schools are very expensive and don’t offer personal contact, have few training materials, don’t have trained instructors and are not available for questions.

5) An online event referral directory emails you and says people are looking for more information about your business

If you get requests from potential clients that sound unusual or are offered business opportunities that ask you for money, do some research before you proceed. Check the Internet to see if others have encountered similar situations. If you feel the offer could be dishonest, it probably is.
