One of the biggest jobs when planning a wedding is choosing the flowers. Seasonal flowers are the best. If you are getting married in the spring choose flowers that normally bloom in the spring.

Having out of season flowers that have to be imported can more than double the price.
Let's face it ladies most of your friends had their weddings in a fancy hotel ballroom or a church sanctuary. This is your wedding and you can dare to be different to make the occasion even more memorable. Have it in a place that is special to you.

Wedding gowns are another area that you now have leeway with. The traditional white dress is not for everyone. You could add a splash of color or go all out with the color. Look at the gorgeous dresses that serve as prom dresses and formal ball gowns. What is a wedding gown but a formal ball gown in white? Today you get to choose a color that most reflects your personality. This gives you a complete color palette to choose from and your bridesmaid's dresses and flowers can be coordinated to match.
