How to plan your wedding 3

 11. Get the cake
Cake decoration is an art.
But before choosing a cake it's better to think at its taste. Also consider if you have children at your party (they won't eat a cake with liquor or alchoolic ingredients).
Then choose a design that match your wedding style.
Consider cake toppers too.
You can find many ideas and very cute items.





12. Hire your entertainment
What type of wedding would you like?
Elegant and soft: a three members orchestra playing classical music would be the best choise.
Rustic: a guitar and a singer could match this theme.
Young and modern: a Dj will not only put music on, but will will keep the flow of the event, make announcements, and plan all your special events with you.

13. Choose decorations
You can usually hire someone that will decorate your wedding, but it can be expense. Find decorations that match your color scheme. Take a visit of the venue and take pictures of how the area looks. You may want to even measure the dimension of the room or area. This will allow you to plan where you want everything go and if you have enough space.
Anyway a professional Flower shop will do an excellent work.

14. Seating chart and Guest book
They will be part of your decoration, so it's important to consider the theme and the colour of your wedding.
Seating chart is very important because your guests will be really happy to have an easy way to know where they're seated.
You can choose between a table order or an alphabet order (the last one is the best when you have more then 100 guests).
Guest book is great to remember this special day. You can choose between a traditional album or an alternative poster where your guests could put their signatures.

15. Hotel Rooms
Many couples will rent a “honeymoon” suite the night of their wedding. Also, you may want to reserve a block of rooms for guests that will be attending your wedding. This will usually ensure they all get the best rate. 

16. Wedding programs 
As with the invitations, you can you have your programs professionally printed or make your own. It’s not recommended that you print your programs much more than a week in advance in case there are any unexpected changes. (such as changes in ushers or candle lighters) If possible, have your officiant proof read the ceremony potion of the program.

17. Plan Rehearsal and Rehearsal Dinner 
You may want to create a schedule for the bridal party for the day of the wedding, so they know what time they need to be places. (hair appointment, photos, ceremony,etc)

How to plan your wedding 2


Red Line concept store
6. Send out invitations  
Choose a colour or a theme and try to use it for invitations, menu, guest book, seating table,...
Try to be creative, do them on your own or go to a professional, but try always to give them your touch.
Think about your guests and the kind of wedding you would like: choose formal or informal, classic or modern, rustic or city fashion,...



 
7. Get the gown 
Start looking early, months before the wedding. This way you will have plenty of time to make a selection and take care of fitting. In most religions, it is traditional that the mother of both the groom, and bride comes to find the dress, as well as the maid of honour.  But please, always remember that is YOUR wedding and that it will be on YOUR body...






8. Choose wedding rings
This is one of the pleasure of the wedding organization, a fun task to do together.
The rings symbolize the devotion to each other. Symple is always a good choise, but today you'll find many different design. 


9. Find a photographer/videographer
 Consider a professional for this special occasion. Go to visit his studio, ask to look at his portfolio to be sure you like his style. Feel free to ask about his cameras, to know if the pictures will be digital or not (some professionals still prefer the old cameras) and about the final work (ask to see wich kind of book you can choose).
This is the best wayso that you don't have to worry aout forgetting your weddings for years to come.


10. Choose a Restaurant or a place with catering.
Decide what type of food and refreshment you will offer at reception dinner. Try to find a happy medium between what would please your guests and what you can afford.
Choose the location (not too far from the celebration place is a good idea, your guest will be happier) and consider the opportunity to hire a place (many castels and manor houses do that) with a professional caterer.

How to plan your wedding

When you finally decide to get married you cannot feel happy, joyful and thrilled at the idea of planning your cerimony...
But it's very important to stay organized from the beginning! 

Quando finalmente decidete di sposarvi, non potete che sentirvi felici, entusiasti ed elettrizzati all'idea di organizzare il matrimonio...
Ma è molto importante concentrarsi sull'aspetto organizzativo fin dall'inizio! 

There are some important steps you need to follow:

1. Set the date
The day should be planned not less than one year before if you want to be sure to find the restaurant, the photographer and the cerimony place that you really would like!
It seems a lot of time, but it will pass sooner then you can imagine, as you will be very busy in the organization.
The factors in choosing a date include the availability of your venue, friends and family. Think about who you must have at your wedding, and try to set the date around them.

Decidete la data
Il giorno deve essere deciso non più tardi di un anno prima se volete essere sicuri di trovare il ristorante, il fotografo e la locatio della cerimonia che davvero vi piacciono!
Può sembrare molto tempo, ma passerà più in fretta di quanto possiate immaginare, impegnati come sarete nell'organizzazione.
Tra i fattori da considerare nello scegliere la data è inclusa la disponibilità della chiesa o della sala comunale, degli amici più cari e dei famigliari.
Pensate a chi desiderereste davvero avere al vostro matrimonio e scegliete il giorno anche in base a questo.



2. Set a budget
This is very important, because you'll need to buy and to pay many different things and it's very easy to exceed the amount you planned.

 Pianificate un budget.
Questo è molto importante perchè le cose che dovrete pagare sono molto ed è davvero facile eccedere la cifra pianificata al'inizio.

3. Decide on the size of your wedding
Remember to talk this over with your fiance. A dream wedding for one may not be for the other. Also this has to be decided in consideration of you budget.

Decidete le dimensioni del matrimonio.
Ricordate di parlarne con il fidanzato/a. Un matrimonio da sogno per voi può non esserlo per l'altro.
Inoltre tenete presente il budget prestabilito.


4. Choose your venue and officiant.
Even church venues and officiants can charge fees. If they don't charge a fee outright to perform the ceremony, be courteous to pay a generous gratuity for their time.

 Scegliete chiesa e sacerdote
Anche chiesa e officiante possono essere soggetti al pagamento di una tariffa. Se non vi richiedono una tariffa per la celebrazione del matrimonio, è opportuno donare un'offerta per il loro tempo e disponibilità.

5.  Choose a theme
It doesn't have to be anything really specific, but you want there to be a consistent feeling throughout.
The most important thing is to choose a colour and a matching style: modern, retro, vintage, young, fashion,...
I.e. pink is perfect for modern, young, romantic and fashion style; red is for elegant, fashion and modern; black and white for retro, vintage and elegant.
Take a look around before taking the last decision: surf on the web, read wedding themed papers,...

Scegliete un tema
Non è necessario che sia qualcosa di specifico, ma è importante che sia capace di creare un'atmosfera.
La cosa più importante è scegliere il colore e uno stile adatto: moderno, retro, vintage, giovane, fashion,...
Ad esempio il rosa è perfetto per uno stle moderno, giovane, romantico e fashion; il rosso è per l'elegante, il fashion e il moderno; bianco e nero per retro, vintage ed elegante.
Guardatevi intorno prima di prendere una decisione: navigate sul web, riviste dedicate al matrimonio,...

 WEDDING FASHION 2012: clothings, colours and must have

Bridal fashion

New year 2012 has come, let's take a look at the new bridal fashion!


Retro seems to be the new direction and minimalism seems to have done its time to leave space at a new romantic bride.
No limits to large soft shirts and precious ribbons. 
Il 2012 è finalmente arrivato, diamo un'occhiata alle nuove tendenze per le spose!

La nuova moda sembra essere lo stle retrò e il minimalismo ha ormai fatto il suo tempo lasciando spazio ad una nuova sposa dal gusto romantico. 


No limits to colours.

Total white for bride dress is always the most elegant choise.                              
2011 has been the year of white and soft colors, these will still be a good and fashion choise for the new year too, but in 2012 young couples trend is to choose orange, red, fucsia and apple green. So if you are going to think at the colour of your wedding don't take limits to your fantasy and imagination and let the colour be the protagonist of your invitations, cake, flowers and decorations!

Il bianco totale per l'abito da sposa è sempre la scelta più elegante.
-il 2011 è stato l'anno del bianco e dei colori soft; questa è ancora un'ottima scelta anche per il nuovo anno, ma nel 2012 la tendenza delle coppie giovani si orienta su arancione, rosso, fucsia e verde mela.




 Must have

The new trend for 2012 is a very important wedding cake: large, coloured and with many levels.

La nuova moda per il 2012 è una torta nuziale molto importante: grande, colorata e con molti piani.
