I never married, well the traditional way. Both times, yes 2x (the 2nd is the keeper), were in or in front of a court house. Couldn't afford a big wedding, and didn't know enough people. Couldn't afford a small wedding and my husband couldn't attend... long story.

My best friend Trish is getting married to her Beau and I've been more intuned with all things wedding. Girls somehow are predisposed to thinking of their wedding day eventually, even if it's the day before - but I don't know if I'd still want one if I could or dare I say a traditional one.

Traditional?
You know, black tux or suit and white dress, and flower girls, and blah blah blah. Nah, I think I would want something comfortable and less traditional, I'd like to break the quo and do something fabulous.

I found this website off my cousins website.  And this picture says it best when it comes to going beyond the traditional wear and decor -Source


And that is what wedding planners can bring to a wedding and reception. Something that is really hard for most of us to do, especially to think outside the box when it comes to our own events. I know it may seem like the wedding planner can be really expensive, but when it comes down to it - they tend to work with you on pricing considering they will still get paid. You might not have a lavish and lux wedding for a budget minded bride, but I guarantee it will be original and well worth the time and effort and reputation of the hired professional.

Think outside the box; white dress? black suit? bouquet? photographs?? Be creative, and really express who you are the day of your wedding, it will be yours to seize.

Speaking of photographs, have you ever wished you could retake your bridal pictures? Maybe you couldn't get the poses or pictures you wanted? Maybe you didn't really like the photographer you hired, but he/she fit your budget? I'm opening the opportunity to redo your wedding photos in September 2008. You and your hubby are welcome to don your wedding gear and take some relaxed and less posed photos for the low low session price of free! That's right kids, free sessions still going on during the 2008 year. Don't miss the chance to get your pictures taken again!!
Happy Weekend!
