Brides and grooms all over the world are having a change of heart. They have moved from the tradition of signing a wedding attendance register to a more contemporary and practical means of preserving something precious.

It is believed that guests will prefer to leave their well wishes for the bride and groom on a distinctive wedding signature platter. Your wedding memories will be the talk of the town on a porcelain platter.  Guests can sign their names and thoughts to create a one of a kind gift. Cheers to the special couple!

Janet and Jim wanted everything connected to their wedding to be unique and personalized. They generated a lot of precious time and energy into the planning of the actual ceremony as well as the reception.  They wanted their cake to be the rich fruit cake that is typical of a Jamaican wedding cake. This rich cake was a little heavier than the ones most of their friends were accustomed to having at their friends’ weddings.  The one common thing about the cakes from the two different cultures was that they were decorated with the same delicate icing.

Janet and Jim wanted the icing on their wedding cake to be mostly white with clusters of peach and cream roses at strategic areas around the various layers. On the top level, the couple planned to have a gorgeous wedding cake top  complete with a fancy monogram.  The thought of having an alternative to a stiff statue on top of their wedding cake was something great to anticipate.

One of the things that modern couples have to contend with when they decide to get married is to decide on the coordination of the wedding. The couple needs to ask if they want the added stress of having to prepare all the necessary items on their long check list and then to be responsible to see them being implemented on the day of their wedding.  In my opinion, that’s way too much to place on the shoulders of the couple.

Getting married is stressful in itself. The stress is not considered to be labeled as “distress” but rather “eustress” meaning a kind of stress with a good ending.
Couples will be involved in the early parts of the planning for the event, but should relinquish the final execution to a responsible individual who is organized and can command respect.

Knowing what to do during the ceremony and who will be responsible to do it is a key component of the wedding ceremony as well as the reception.  An example is; who is responsible for directing the guests to the signing of the wedding guests’ registry?  And after the church ceremony who will take the guestbook to the reception hall?  If the guest book is electronic who will be instructing the guests on its proper use?  All of these questions and more, point to the wedding coordinator.  The coordinator must be able to delegate responsible individuals to perform different functions and also train them to recognize when their task is completed.

 More and more couples are opting to use electronic gadgets in their weddings. One popular use of an electronic gadget is for the permanent preservation of the signatures of
the wedding guests.  This can be done on a personalized wedding signature platter.  This platter is made of porcelain and can be displayed in the home of the special couple.

Many couples stick to the old method of asking their guests to sign a guestbook.  Others are willing to explore new and innovative methods that are time saving and are just as effective. So, if you are a new couple that is exploring new options to be used in the place of the traditional guestbook; take the plunge and see if you are satisfied.

 My friend Julia is planning her wedding and she has already decided that she will be designing and printing her wedding invitations. One thing she has decided to do however, and that is to get the pre-packaged wedding invitation kit. With the kit already color coordinated all she will have to do is to decide on a theme and then write a draft of the invitation.  Once this is spell and content checked she will copy the number of invitations needed for the individuals that will be invited to the wedding.

I applaud my friend Julia for being such a prudent person with her money.  I totally agree with her that by printing her own invitations she is able to use the funds saved to make another purchase in preparation for her wedding.  Cheers to this very wise bride!

We really are living in an age of advanced technology.  Who would have thought that a couple could visit a store like Staples or Office Max and select stationery already formatted to print wedding invitations?  Well, like it or not, but we can clearly say that the time has arrived when individuals with little or no experience in printing can order a relatively inexpensive wedding invitation kit and print their formal wedding invitations.

These kits are pre-packaged with the necessary cards ribbons and envelopes necessary to put together an attractive and eye-catching invitation.  So, go ahead and take a plunge when next you need to print invitations for an upcoming wedding or engagement or bridal shower.  With very little know how, you could read the basic instructions and be prepared to create and finally to print your own invitations

We just drove back from New York to Rhode Island where we reside.  We attended the wedding of a wonderful couple. The wedding coordinator did a fantastic job of organizing the events in a very uncomplicated yet brilliant manner.

Just before the bridal party started their march from the lobby of the church to the inside where the ceremony would take place, the minister engaged the groom in a public conversation about his plans for the day.  It was quite unusual to hear the groom discussing in an impromptu way how he intended to get married to the girl he loved. He also talked about how nervous he felt as he stood there waiting for her.

The ring and broom bearers entered right after the mothers of the bride and groom respectively. There were seven bridesmaids and groomsmen in addition to the matron of honor and the best man.  The bridesmaids wore well made red gowns and the maid of honor wore a gown made from a similar fabric but a color that was a shade darker.

The wedding ceremony went without a hitch and the reception went equally well. One item that caught my attention was a birdcage wedding card holder.  It was unique and attractive.  The cards from the guests were placed in the cage, where they would be held until the couple had time to read them after the wedding was over. Again I applaud the wedding coordinator for a job well done!

Like most young couples we wanted a perfect wedding.  We wanted the right food and the right number of guests and the right people to toast members of the wedding party.  Although we went to great lengths to ensure that everything was near perfect or better, we still had a few imperfections.

It was a given that we would have a church wedding in our own church with our own pastor.  Many of the guests were people who knew us from the time we were growing up in our community.  Our teachers and principals were invited.  Our reception would take place in the quadrangle of our high school.  This area was green and lush and well kept.
Around the borders of the quadrangle were the healthiest looking tropical flowers you have ever seen. The table belonging to the bridal party would be on the stage while the other tables would be arranged in a semicircle around it.  Everything was perfectly laid out.

The ceremony went very well and the picture taking with the wedding photographer
went without a hitch.  The reception was about to begin and lo and behold the clouds seemed to pop open and the rain came down in torrents.  Everything had to be shifted to the nearby auditorium.  There was just enough time to safeguard against a total disaster. The decoration was shifted without a big loss. Thanks to fast moving and skilled coordination.

The limousine pulled up and the bridal party was greeted with cheers and laughter. The master of ceremony announced our arrival in a specially arranged order with the bride and groom entering last of all. We were so very happy to see the nicely decorated room.
My mind raced back to the attendance at the church versus the attendance at the reception. I wondered silently if everyone had signed the attractive wedding guest book with the color coordinated pen and ribbons.  This was our special day and we wanted to preserve the memories for a lifetime.

Among the many important wedding conversations that the bride and groom usually have long before their special day, is one that addresses their wedding pictures.  The bride usually wants a photographer with much experience that will make her look smashing in every pose.  The groom usually wants the event to be over, so that he could just have his bride all for himself.

The parents on both sides usually want at least one or two nicely framed pictures to be displayed in their home in addition to other small impromptu shots of the wedding party.  Members of the wedding party are usually delighted to receive a special shot of the ceremony in a nice frame.

A popular and safe way to store the special pictures that are too numerous to frame, but none the less very important, is the special wedding photo keepsake box that is decorative and creates a startling impression in any room in your home.  The photo box comes in many different shades and textures and are quite easily maintained.  This is a delightful gift for members of the wedding party or can serve as a gift to the couple.

The bride and groom are often far too busy to review the list of guests in attendance at their wedding on the day of the wedding. However, at some point down the road when the guests are long gone and they have settled into the routine of married life, they may just want to review their wedding guest book to see how many names they recognize.  This is usually the moment of truth when the couple truly feels strong appreciation for the wonderful choice they had made.

Many of the contemporary Guest Book Sets come complete with fancy pens and other wedding items.  Wedding guests are encouraged to record their names and thoughts.  This can be preserved in stylish elegance for many years after the event
