They all looked so lovely in their bridesmaids dresses, when we went in for all the necessary fittings, and they were just as excited as I was about my wedding day. My maid of honor helped me plan my wedding ceremony and reception.  She really was a big help with checking out all the supplies I needed for the reception, and giving me suggestions.  We talked for a long time about all the different themes there are and which ones I liked the most.  I had narrowed it down to two motifs. One was a beautiful garden ceremony with all the gorgeous flowers all around and the other one was a beach wedding with sand and surf.  Since we lived by the ocean and it’s one of mine and my fiance’s favorite places to be, I decided on a beach wedding. Since time and place were all taken care of, we started getting those beach themed wedding invitations out right away. It didn’t take long to get responses from everyone, so now my planning can begin, since I now know exactly who is coming.

   I arranged for the caterers and chose all the meal options for the reception, and since we will be celebrating at the beach, there will be plenty of seafood. My fiance and I must have tried 50 cake samples before we decided on our wedding cake. Then I went to cake toppers and looked through all the styles they had. I finally settled on a cake topper that was perfect for a beach wedding. Now  I had everything from decorations to the wedding favors for my guests.  The only thing left for me to get now, were the bridesmaid gifts. I was a little worried though, about the cost.  My wedding budget was running a little thin.  Luckily I found some pretty terrific cheap bridesmaid gifts that looked like  I spent a fortune. They were really exquisite and I just knew they would all love them.

   In fact, I lucked out on quite a few things for my reception.  There were a lot of items that were available at wholesale prices, like some of my reception decorations, groomsmen gifts, my cake topper and so much more.  I couldn’t believe what a great selection there was and what great prices to go along with them. That really does help a lot in the over all cost of a wedding and reception. I’m afraid getting married is a little more expensive than we originally expected.

   Well, next weekend is the big day, and I am oh so ready.  I have everything done, all my decorations are ready to go, all my wedding favors for my friends and family are neatly packaged in festive favor boxes, and I have all the gifts for my flower girl and maid of honor. I also have the perfect bridesmaids gifts for my best friends. My fiance was happy with the gifts he found for his groomsmen, ring boy and best man too.  We were able to get everything we needed and still had money left over for the little extras we wanted to pick up. After the wedding and reception we plan to be on a plane and on our way to Hawaii for our honeymoon. Next weekend will be the best weekend of my life.
