Lillie Yarde: My fiancee and I would like to have black and yellow as two of our wedding colors, however I don't want everything to look like a bumble bee...I was wondering if there was another color I could add as an accent (other than white), we thought maybe a blue-ish color but I'm not sure what shade would look best.
Scot Rotruck: For a destination wedding, I would expect to be taking some vacation time in order to go so a Friday wouldn't bother me, especially if I got a save-the-date or info from my family/friend far enough in advance that I could ensure I could afford the trip & have vacation time available to go.
Ofelia Kieck: I got married on a FridayI did not have a destination weddingBoth my parents families both live in 5 hours away in different states then the one I was marring/livingMy husband family was about 4 to 5 hours away in the different directionNo all the family could of made the wedding because it was on a FridayThat was okayPeople who ! you invite that can not get the extra day off, that was the main problem, would be disappointed in not coming. No body was mad we got married on a FridayI was not the first one, a few of my Cousin did, and I had to take Friday off and travel 5 hoursNobody should be upset or mad about a Friday night weddingYou are giving a year in advance, you could send out save the day, so they know to get that off next yearIf people can not come, it's okay...Show more
Houston Venezia: Typically if someone goes to a destination wedding they schedule a few days off of work in advance, even up to a week. This should be fine.
Vickie Sterbenz: Friday Weddings are usually cheaper to do than saturday weddings. I am getting married on a Friday in Nov of next year. So i see no problem in it. Congrats!
Derrick Smsith: wouldnt bother me in the slightesta years warning? 99.9% of people can cope with that no problem
Antonia Mogg: Saturday evening weddings are the most popul! ar because it gives people time to travel to and from the loca! tion. It also gives the wedding party a chance to rehearse on Friday night after working all week. Hopefully, many can keep from having to take time off work to be in their friend's weddings. But if Friday is the only time open, then don't worry about it. People who are going to attend a destination wedding will be there anyway. Especially with this much notice. They'll just take another day off and get there earlier. Nothing to worry about it seems....Show more
Dewey Heersink: You can't send a shower gift if she is not having a shower.You would send a wedding gift.You should send the gift for the wedding day.Peace....Show more
Dalila Yoon: I like late on a Saturday. I also have no problem with a Friday. I've been to local Friday weddings, and I liked having the weekend to myself without a wedding taking up my entire Saturday, and if someone is actually willing to attend a destination wedding, 1 extra day won't matter too much.
Maynard Phoubandith: destina! tion wedding = my vacation too, so it starts whenever & it wouldn't bother me in the least.
Janita Tetlow: No shower, no shower gift. You could send a wedding gift anytime before or up to one year after the wedding.
Theresia Fashaw: Destination weddings should not make that much of a difference really. Most people going to destination weddings go there early to make a sort of vacation out of it. I think Friday would be awesome, and if it saves you some cash, or gets you extra goodies for the same price... go for it. Have a beautiful wedding, and good luck with your marriage....Show more
Roosevelt Pendill: yaaaaaa its nice time for wedding
Arleen Bussing: Her wedding is May 21st. And she is not having a shower and lives in a different state. I probably won't see her before because I am 7 months pregnant. So when should I send the gift?
Colby Millberg: Do not worry about the shower gift. Just send a wedding gift about a week or two before the wed! ding.
Indira Wassell: The Wedding Book - The Big Book for Your Bi! g Day by Mindy Weiss is fantastic. You can buy it used from Amazon.com for as little as $3 and it is very comprehensive - it covers everything from the moment you get engaged until the moment you leave for your honeymoon!It also includes several budget guides, timelines, and templates for you to use to plan various aspects. I just received it from a friend and I wish I'd had it sooner!http://www.amazon.com/Wedding-Book-Big-Your-Day/dp...
Coleman Ocegueda: you are giving people plenty of notice so friday should be no problem. people might use a friday wedding as an excuse to book the monday off work as well so they can have a little holiday
Stephnie Patout: I Love your idea. here are so many ideas:http://www.google.com/search?q=yellow/black+weddin...Congratulations.
Samara Siewers: I don't see a problem with it being on a Friday
Ezekiel Kadner: I need to know everything.If you know of a good website (not an online wedding planning site) that can tel! l me everything, that would be great.
Leontine Kreitz: Start by investing in a planner. They sell them at Target, Walmart, etc.They will be a lifesaver. MIne has kept me so organized, it's unbelievable. I have every single receipt of what I bought in there so I can keep a count on what I'm spending!It gives you a time line of when everything needs to be done, and what needs to be done!Start by picking a date, and a venue. That is the most important. You can't start the planning process without having a date and location! Talk about the budget and what you are willing to pay for your Dream wedding! Try HARD to stick to that! After that, everything else falls into place. Colors, cake tasting, music selection, caterer, guest list, rings, dress shopping, choosing the bridal party, tux shopping, picking out invitations, limo, pictures, centerpieces, and all of the small details!It is fun, and stressful when it comes down to the wire (where I am now!) Good Luck!
Lione! l Tanen: Never been to one.....if folk work it can be a problem as they! are at the mercy of the job allowing them to take off both the fri and any prior days for travel.....unless my kid or my sibling's kid was getting married, I would not attend a destination wedding reguardless of when it was.
Faviola Dewire: im one of these people who wouldn't care when the wedding was or where it was - i would make every effort to be there.if that means a few days off work,well,that's what holidays are for :)and that's my philosophy - anyone who complains probably wasn't worth an invite in the first place...Show more
Rose Krouse: It would make no difference to me at all no matter where the wedding was to be held. Everyone can get leave from work so being a weekday is irrelevant.If you are traveling to a different country you wouldn't go just for the day. You would go for several days so again the day of the wedding makes no difference.
Francis Stickle: Think about a date, budget and then go to a bookstore and purchase a Wedding Planner (! $15.00 +/-)You can complete the budget details and you will have a checklist of everything you need to do over the next 9-12 months (the average time it takes to plan a wedding)
Len Bormes: I think there are books you can buy to help you organize everything and keep track and plan what you need. I'm sure you can buy them at any book store or wedding shop :)
Tom Romer: A shower gift is that a shower gift, wedding gifts are nor required nor are mandatory re Peggy Post's wedding etiquette book, people are just mis-led. If you wish to give your a friend a present, anytime say 6-8 weeks before the wedding would be fine and she is a lucky person to have a friend as caring as you.
Rosio Pasculli: www.theknot.com is pretty fantastic with helping me plan my wedding. I have also bought a planning book, but I have barely touched it. Number one thing you need to do (after you say yes :) ) is pick a date. Then you need to do an informal guest list to find out a rough e! stimate of people you are thinking of inviting. The reason for this is ! that when you begin to look at venues (your next step), you know if you can actually fit your party into the room. You also need to figure out a general budget that you can afford. This also helps to narrow down a venue.You also want to order your wedding dress about 9 months before your your date to allow enough time for it to come in and be altered....Show more
Rosalba Lingner: For sure I would use theknot.com, it is a fantastic site. If you register, they have forums, will give you a free wedding website, and have a great budget tool that I really relied a lot on. They have basically every topic covered in their articles like songs to use, etiquette, how to plan a shower, what to wear, how to obtain a marriage license, cultural weddings, destination weddings, all of it, and they also have local vendors available. The only thing I don't like about them is they showcase mostly very expensive weddings, and I can't afford some of the things that they show like giant ! flower arrangements and designer gowns. So, you have to be a little creative imitating their suggestions if you want to spend a reasonable amount. I also got great ideas off of offbeatbride.com, which isn't a wedding planning site but has some fun ideas.
Cortez Badolato: Look in the phone book
Darrel Stele: If she's not having a shower, it's not a shower gift - it's a wedding gift. It's appropriate to send any time before or shortly after the wedding.
Sherrill Botting: If there is no shower than there is no gift giving. wait until her wedding to give a gift
Rashad Marecki: No it wouldn't bother me.
Renay Billiar: i'd be cool with friday
