What to Know Before Your Wedding
Weddings are a very special and beautiful occasion all around. Walking down the aisle may seem like a simple event, but there are many things that go into planning a wedding, some things that you may not know about before you run across them while planning. Learn what you need to look out for in order to make your Staten Island Wedding perfect.
Some things to know before planning your wedding:
Schedule Setup for everything
If you are bringing items or outside help to your church or reception venue, ask the business what time your help can arrive to start setting everything up. Also, make sure there is enough time to set up before your guests arrive. If your staff are able to set up the day before that is even better, if not the setup should be done hours before the first guest arrives.
Learn all you need to Know About Marriage Licenses
Yes, you can check everything online these days. However, a quick call to the county clerk’s office can help you figure out details that are not written online. Even if the hours are 9 AM to 5 PM every day that does not mean that they issue marriage licenses all day. Also, consider giving your mother or maid of honor a copy of your marriage license for safe keeping in case you lose yours before your wedding.
Go Over Ground Rules for Your Church or Reception Location
Ask the church or reception venue if there are any restrictions on the location. Some examples include, if flash photography is allowed, certain restrictions for the dress (if a more traditional church or venue), if your wedding is outdoors, check if you can plant stakes in the lawn for a canopy, etc. It is best to get all of the what-ifs out of the way so that no mistakes are made the day of your wedding.
