I want a colorful wedding with a unique theme. How does a masquerade sound as a wedding theme? All the quest will wear mask and beads.
and if the theme isn’t bad where could we have the wedding. I mean, i don’t think a church will appropriate the theme and all.

My fiance and I want a destination wedding in Mexico, but in our cultures comes huge families and traditions. Basically, that means our invite list tops 100 people. To scale down that list is nearly impossible. Do we send out invites to all and just know that a majority won’t make it to the wedding? But then how many do we budget for? Plus, our coordinator from Mexico charges more for larger guestlists. Help? I’m kinda stuck on what to do. Do we just try to find a new venue or what. Please, what would you do?

You have just been proposed to. Now you will need to decide on where to hold your wedding. Should it be local or somewhere far away? If the idea of destination wedding has crossed your mind, you need to consider three important factors, which will help you relieve stress and unneeded anxiety.
Do you like to control everything you do, including little details? If so a destination wedding may not be right alternative. Destination weddings inherently involve more unknown factors and will require you to trust somebody else and their judgment in coming up with solutions for your wedding. For instance, you may have to rely on your decorator’s opinion on the details on how exactly the flowers will look like. Similarly, you may not be able to view the venue in person until a few days before the wedding, or the wedding itself. You must also be willing to rely on reliability of the company managing the venue (it could be a hotel). You must be comfortable with knowing how to pick reputable vendors and know how to handle some degree of ambiguity. Give up planning every single detail and enlist the help of a wedding coordinator to take on the most taxing tasks. Or, opt in for an all-inclusive option which is likely to be offered by the hotel you are having the reception at. You’ll need to let the experts handle all the particulars. Instead, enjoy some time with your relatives and friends and just have a hassle-free wedding. A destination wedding may not be suitable for couples who want a large affair that includes many members of their families, distant relatives and friends. You will need to keep in mind that some people will not be able to afford the plane tickets, hotel stays, or even taking time off from work to fly out to the destination where you are having your wedding.
However, if you have decided that you would not have issues giving up some control of the details to somebody else and are thinking of smaller weddings, then go for it. Prepare to enjoy the fun the destination wedding offers. Imagine all you can do with your loved ones while you are there.
Where are the best wedding locations in Australia? preferably on the east coast but anywhere really. New Zealand ideas too?

I am having a green/brown/white wedding theme (Calla Lilies for flowers), but I want it to look more “naturey” but with those colours. Definitely need brown ideas (lacking on those), would pine cones in an August wedding look tacky? Help please!

Whether you have dreamed of getting married on a white sandy beach or among the dense tropical forest of some remote country, organizing a destination wedding isn’t as difficult or expensive as you could think. Each year more couples are opting to travel long distances to get married and there are some compelling reasons why.
Most families do not live close to one another now days, and it is very possible that your mother and father, sisters or brothers are scattered all over the country or maybe live on different continents than yourself. Many of your nearest family members that would want to attend the wedding would need to travel a great distance anyway. Weddings are generally one day affairs and this gives you very little time to spend with family members. A destination marriage can be more of a vacation that allows you a lot more time to spend with close relatives and mates that you have not seen in ages.
Having to arrange the marriage flowers, wedding cake, wedding video videographer and marriage dress can be intensely stressful and laborious. The majority of hotels and resorts offer marriage packages that may include everything that you need for your destination wedding. Favored island marriage destinations have many marriage planners that are experienced and professional and can put together a package to suite almost any budget. There would be very few things left that you would need to organize yourself as everything will be done prior to you arriving. The majority of these companies can even arrange all the documentation you need, except for your passport.
The sole planning you’ll be left with is to get your marriage outfits made and pick your marriage bands. This will permit you much more time to relax before the wedding and there will be no mad last minute rushing around to be certain that everything is prepared. All you will be doing is relaxing on the beach enjoying the company of those nearest to you.
Unless you are going to be paying for all of your guests to attend your marriage, you may expect that your guest list will be far smaller. Not everybody will be in a position to afford the cost of airfares, hotel bills and other expenses. However if you send out save-the-date cards earlier enough, you’ll find that a load more people will attend your wedding than you anticipated, especially if you’re heading off to some heavenly island. Close friends and family will simply make it part of their annual vacation ; an exotic island paradise vacation can be very tempting.
Even though there’s a much bigger distance to travel when opting for a destination wedding, after you add up all the costs you will often find that the entire marriage works out a lot less expensive. For a similar budget a conventional marriage costs you’ll be ready to have an extended wedding vacation on some tropical island paradise for a similar budget. The biggest cost will be the airfares, depending on where you are traveling from. Most of the favored island destinations are extremely inexpensive when it comes to the hotels, resorts and the whole marriage package.
