Tip -

To stay within a reasonable wedding budget make sure you plan your expenses with a column for budget and a column for actual costs.

Money issues are a primary reason for disagreement, so have this one item under control and make sure to keep your fiancé aware of what is being spent, what has been spent, and what needs to be spent at ALL times!

For instance, wedding attire should make up approximately 10 percent of your total budget.

Your budget will consist of what everyone is contributing; bride, groom, family of the bride, family of the groom, and any other contributions - even the non-money kind like a friend serving as bartender.

Creating a wedding budget helps you decide how much you can afford to spend on your wedding. It also keeps costs reasonable. On average, a 200-guest wedding costs around $17,000.

According to the complete wedding schedule, you want to begin looking for your buy wedding dress online 7-9 months before the wedding.

But it doesn't stop there. You also want to be looking for your buy online wedding dress, and your bridal accessories (veil, shoes, jewelry, hair style, handkerchief, garter, and if you are thinking in traditional terms then you'll also be wise to get your 'old, new, borrowed, & blue' set aside too ).

And while you are looking for these items, you may as well be thinking about the bridesmaid dresses, mother of the bride dress, and mother-in-law dress.

Keep in mind that weight (with stress) may go up and down and it's best to get something at this timeline that doesn't feel tight or 'just right.' You can ALWAYS take something in, but not if you have no room-Talk about stress!

Believe me, If you've ever seen brides that popped out of their dress like a mushroom top then you know that it is NOT pretty.

Tip -

• Decide what style you want FIRST: Do you want a famous designer's wedding dresses copy for your wedding, a maternity wedding dress, a cheap wedding dress, a discount wedding dress, a plus size wedding dress, a simple wedding dress, a casual wedding dress, a modest wedding dress, a bridal shops wedding dress, a famous designer's bridesmaid dresses, flower girls dresses and bridal wear, or a fancy dress, a prom dress for the bridesmaids, mother of the bride bridal dress and will you be looking for other bridal dresses and/or evening dresses?

At the 4-6 month before the wedding timeline, you want to buy wedding dress online for your flower girl, and any other female children in your wedding.

Plus, take a peek at the tuxedos and formal wear for your man and his groomsmen and any male children (ring bearer).

This is a great time to also pick up your bridal lingerie - think naughty! At the end of the day you may both be too tired to care, but you will be remembered and appreciated for a lifetime (although you may never know it)!

Tip -

• When it comes to wedding dresses, begin looking early!
• Even when you buy your Wedding Gowns online, it is best to allow four to six months for your Bridal Gowns to be delivered to you.
• Don't forget most bridal gowns, bridesmaid dresses, prom dresses and flower girl dresses will need to be altered.
• You'll also need to allow time to have your Bridal Portrait.

Tip -

• If you're going to be cutting it tight on time, go with the dress that has a delivery time well in advance of your deadline.
• Also, don't forget to start shopping for your Bridesmaid Dresses early. Bridesmaid Dresses can take just as long to deliver as Wedding Dresses.
• If your dresses are bought then this is a good time to have everyone try on theirs. I was maid of honor at my best friend's wedding, but she had bought all the dresses and everyone got their dress the day of the wedding-needless to say, DISASTER was only seconds away . . . Pins, tape and hot glue saved the day, but it was stupid planning and needless rush and extra stress - for everyone!

Tip -

• If you are shopping in the Fall or Winter look for a wedding dress online made with satin, heavy damasks, heavy taffetas, moiré, heavy lace, velvet, heavy beadwork.
• If you are shopping to buy a wedding dress online in the Spring or Summer try these materials instead - chiffon, tulle skirts, lightweight satins, dotted Swiss, lace.

Two-three months before the wedding, finalize all formal wear arrangements and sizing for all the men, making sure you give the groomsmen proper delivery and drop off (or rental/purchase) instructions.

If you want special accessories for your maid of honor or bridesmaids, make sure you take care of it (two-three months before the wedding) now.

Tip -

• The number size in a bridal dress is about as important to its actual size as its color is not at all. You've been dieting, eating well and exercising. You've lost 10 pounds and you measure for a size 14 gown? If the chart says so, order that size. Make sure you are ordering from size charts from the manufacturer. They're based on your measurements. If you're right on the edge of two sizes, order the larger. You order your gown to fit your largest measurement size. So if your bust equals a size 14, your waist a size 12 and your hips a 12, you would order the 14.

Finalize the purchase of any clothing accessories shoes, cuff links, hair ornaments, . . . Make sure the ring bearer (flower girl, etc . . .) is outfitted and the parents are on-line with that special wedding outfit for their child.

Finish any accessory details for anyone involved in dressing for your wedding.

Have a dress rehearsal for everyone (from their own home) one more time - making sure all buy wedding dress online clothing still fits.

One month before your wedding - Freak Out (Kidding). Put on your makeup and do your hair the way you want to wear it on the day of your wedding.

Did somebody say, "Bachelorette Party?!"

One-Two weeks before your wedding dress day get your manicure and pedicure now!

Waiting until the day of your wedding is a big mistake! I did that and barely made it to my own wedding-three hours of chatter and no matter how I tried to hurry the manicurist up, she just kept talking, saying things like, "people tell me I should talk less and go faster, but I just want to do a good job." - My uncle could have done as good a job and in half the time! (my regular manicurist was gone that day and I was too busy to check before my appointment)

Which brings me to the day of your wedding - It's your day.

This day is all about you so do not let anyone or anything stand in your way. Be selfish today!

. . . Now, get dressed!

• My greatest wish for the two of you is that through the years your love for each other will so deepen and grow, that years from now you will look back on this day, your wedding day, as the day you loved each other the least.

For my niece, Heather and her fiancée Jerry, we wish you happiness beyond belief, and health all your years and a life filled with love, respect, and appreciation for each other. You are loved dearly.
