I know that you can only send save-the-dates to people who are invited to the wedding, but what about printed engagement announcements? –Stacy, Orlando, FL
Traditionally, printed engagement announcements aren’t something you should send. You should announce your engagement through your local newspapers, and also have friends and family spread the word. Sending an engagement announcement to someone that you don’t intend on inviting to your wedding could be very confusing to the recipient and lead to hurt feelingso your engaged!
Picking a Date:
My fiancée and I can’t seem to pick a date. We don’t really care when we get married and have no preference over a certain season or day. What are some other factors we should consider?—Matthew, Thousand Oaks, CA
When picking a wedding date so many factors can come into the decision, some more practical than others. Maybe you’ve always wanted a summer wedding, or dreamed of a horse-drawn sleigh through the snow, or perhaps love the idea of an Easter weekend event. Just don’t forget that no matter what day you choose, this will be when you celebrate your anniversary.
One of my friends has yet to celebrate her anniversary, on the actual day, because she and her husband were married in late spring, the weekend after college graduation. Both of them entered into careers in higher education, and for the last fifteen years, grading finals is how they have celebrated. The same is true for holiday weekends. Most holiday weekends are about travel or family and long-standing traditions. Not exactly the time for romantic evenings, you know?

When you set the budget for your wedding, it’s always smart to allow for some “wiggle room.” The more you delve into your wedding planning, the more unexpected costs you will find. Most likely, you will not only end up underestimating costs, but also completely forgetting minor items, such as tips for vendors or accommodations for your bridesmaids. We recommend “rounding up” on all line items to give you that little extra bumper to take care of unforeseen or neglected expenses. Before you book your venue and vendors, use our checklist and budget tools to make sure you have accounted for all costs.
