Naples Florida Wedding Tips

Your wedding day is one of the biggest days of your life. From the dress, to the location, to the cake, to the honeymoon, it is a whirlwind adventure.  Planning a wedding can be full of joy and excitement, but sometimes it can seem overwhelming. The Hilton Naples Hotel Wedding Team has compiled a few tips to help you create that special day with a little more confidence.

 

Weddings, Weddings, Lots of Weddings

Decide what kind of wedding you are going to have. Is this going to be a lavish event with all of the bells and whistles, or perhaps something more quaint and intimate? This first big decision will set the tone for the overall experience and expense of the wedding. 

 

The Wedding Planner

If life has you on the go and you don’t have enough time to devote to all of the details of planning a wedding, hire a wedding planner. They are experts in their field and once they understand your vision for the big day, they can handle the rest. 

 

Hear Ye Hear Ye

Save the Date. Don’t forget that friends and family need time to clear their schedules, so send out a “Save the Date” reminder several months before the big day. This ensures that your special guests you want included will be able to attend.

 

Celebrate Good Times

Once your wedding date is set, it is never too early to find a location for the reception. Receptions are all about personality and creativity so have fun and make it all about the two of you. The best advice to remember is, don’t compare it to someone else’s. What worked for them, won’t necessarily work for you.

 

Scrumptious Fare

An important component of that exciting reception will be of course the delightful cuisine for you and your guests to enjoy. From hors d’oeurve and cocktail receptions to full scale multi course dinners, there is a variety of delectable goods to choose from. Before you start a sampling smorgasbord, make sure to keep the budget, the number of guests, and the formality of the event in mind. 

 

Save the Last Dance

As you are making selections for your reception location and food selections, it is also a good time to be looking for a band or DJ.  Because you will want each element of your reception to compliment the rest, this makes for a perfect time to consider the other main aspects of the event simultaneously.

 

Shiny Paper Pretty Bows

Once the word is out about the big day, guests will be excited to send their warn wishes and congratulations. Make sure to register 6 to 9 months before your special day. Take some time to select a variety of items that accommodate both the tastes of you and your honey. Remember to select a wide range of gifts and price ranges as this will make shopping for your guests a little easier.

 

The Perfect Dress

Something that little girl’s dream of their whole life, the perfect wedding dress. This could be one of the hardest decisions you will encounter. So many to choose from, each one seemingly more gorgeous than the next. The best bet when looking for “thee” dress, is to start early. Make sure that you have one selected and ordered at least 6 months prior to the occasion. You may envision that great dress on the hanger to be the one, but until you try on a variety of cuts and styles it is hard to truly know. The perfect dress is one that when you try it on it will not only display your personality, but it will look exquisite on you.

 

At Last....The Honeymoon

The long awaited trip for the newlyweds. Romantic and blissful, the honeymoon will be full of cherished memories. With careful planning, this can be one of your most treasured adventures. But before booking that plane fare, make sure that both of you agree on what kind of honeymoon you want to take. Decide on whether you desire a warm or cold weather destination and if this is a relaxed or active vacation. There are lots of options available. 
 

It is recommended that you utilize a travel agent specialist to help you not only get the best prices, but the best first hand information about a destination. If you are traveling out of country, they will be able to supply you with the relevant current laws of the country and who is in good standing with the United States. Most importantly, travel agents can shield you from problems that arise when you book vacations on your own. Leave it to the professionals to make sure you have a memorable honeymoon.
