Planning a perfect weddingAt a young age, many girls start dreaming of

meeting their prince and walking down the aisle to a perfect wedding. Planning a wedding can be overwhelming, but can also be tons of fun.

The most important thing is to be organized. Our Wedding Extravaganza edition is a tool

to connect you with area merchants who make it their business to create memorable weddings.

Using the services of an experienced wedding planner can save time and worry as you tackle the wedding to-do list. Consider To Have & To Hold Wedding Planning or Tryna’s Eventz to offer support and peace of mind while creating the day you’ve dreamed of.

Once you’ve determined the size of your guest list and budget, the first step is to secure your venues and officiants. Ceremonies can be held in churches, halls, banquet rooms, specialty venues and the beautiful outdoor spaces that sur-round us. Be prepared to pay a deposit with your booking.

The theme of your wedding will determine the type of space you want to secure. You may need more than one location to accommodate the service, reception, dinner and dance.

Consider the Blairmore Legion, Castle Mountain Resort, Fernie Alpine Lodge, Kootenai Brown Pioneer Village and SpringBreak Garden Centre to host your festivities.

Some offer all-in-one services while others focus on specialty services. Each has a distinct atmosphere, whether you’ll be indoors or outside,

and all offer great packages.Are you nervous yet? The date is set!Choosing wedding rings is a personal experi-

ence – the ring is a symbol of marriage you will wear every day. Take time to browse until you find rings you truly love. Allow time for them to be sent off for custom sizing.

Consider Blackburn Jewellers and Naturally Wood Rings to share knowledge and a selection of rings to match your personality and budget. Along with Simply You, they also carry pieces of jewelry to make you sparkle.

What style of wedding dress have you dreamed of? Trends for 2013 include jewelled details, keyhole backs, long sleeves, lace and tulle, coquettish bows, cascading peplums, illusion necklines, golden accents and tones, bold florals and whimsy. At least that’s what one source says.

You’ll know you’ve found “the dress” when you step out of the dressing room in a gown that makes you feel more beautiful than you’ve felt before. And, when your mom starts to cry.

On the other hand, your perfect dress may be one perfectly preserved and accented with sentimentality. Some of our mothers and grand-mothers wore stunning dresses, and you may have tried one on many times in anticipation of being a bride yourself.

Consider what you’d like your bridal party to wear in terms of colour and style. Imagine what will make these important women look and feel spectacular, and try to find a dress that will flatter

everyone. An alternative is to choose the colour and let each bridesmaid find something that works for her body type.

Consider Bonnie’s Fashions, Neat ’n Nifty and Ruffles Boutique for semi-formal styles, shoes, jewelry and accessories for the bride, bridal party and everyone wanting to look their best on your wedding day. You can also special-order dress wear for the groom, flower girl and ring bearer through some local boutiques.

While many moments of your wedding day will be etched in your memory forever, you’ll want to check out the portfolios of local photographers to capture these moments in liv-ing colour. Choose a photographer whose work shows imagination and creativity, in the style you desire.

Consider Eyelet Photography, Katalily Photography or Mill Canyon Photography. These ladies are busy, so book well in advance.

What type of atmosphere would you like to create for your reception? You might choose a formal dinner or a picnic in the mountains. The possibilities are endless.

If you’re planning on a dance with live music or a DJ, make time to check out possibilities through YouTube to ensure they play the type of music you’re after, and that they do it well. Book early – the best bands get snapped up fast.

Once you’ve thought about the menu, you’ll need to book a caterer. Consider Country Encounters or Simply Catering for delicious

With every $50 order enjoy 1/2 o� any catalogue item, three boxes of votives for

$12, or two dozen universal tealights for $12.

meals made to your specifications, and mobile catering options. You’ll find they offer varied menus along with special dishes and desserts.

To complement a fine meal, you may choose to offer a variety of wines, spirits and beer to your guests. Consider A & B Liquor or Greg’s Liquor & Cold Beer Store to look after your needs and permits.

Speaking of paperwork, you’ll also need to purchase a wedding licence from an agency, such as Pincher License & Registry, within three months of your wedding date. They can help with the administrative details and suggest a marriage commissioner if you are not using clergy services.

To create the perfect decor at your ceremony and reception, you’ll need to think about bouquets, boutonnieres, corsages, sprays, table decorations, tablecloths and linens, chair covers and accessories. Consider Pink Tie Events and The Rose Peddler to look after your decorating needs.

Whether you’d like a formal, tiered cake or something that expresses your individuality, the sky is the limit with creativity. Consider Crumbs Cakery to come up with unique ideas and bake a tasty cake.

There are many options for invitations, programs and thank-you cards, including doing it yourself. Consider Mountainside Printing to assist you with putting your style on paper.

Your guests will appreciate knowing where you are registered for wedding gifts. Everyone is interested in choosing from a variety of ideas they know you will love. Consider Antique & Vintage Charm, Christine’s Gift Shop and Crow Works

when selecting registry items, choosing gifts for your bridal party and selecting wedding favours for your guests.

Out-of-town invitees will appreciate excep-tional accommodation suggestions in the area. Whether it’s camping, large group rentals or a western-themed adventure, consider Adanac Adventures and Sierra West to meet their needs.

Are you getting stressed? Why not take some time out to relax and be pampered. Local salons and spas offer a variety of services and you can make hairdressing appointments at the same time.

Consider taking in the Women’s Wellness Fair or visiting Chateau de Clark, Health Connection Inc., Providence Salon & Spa or Rumors Salon and Spa and come away feeling like a million bucks.

Your bridal party will plan a wedding shower and you’ll be spoiled by family and friends in the community.

They’ll need to have a table of tasty goodies and can consider Sobeys to provide fresh fruits, deli trays and desserts to satisfy the guests.

They may choose to have a themed party, and there are many awesome options for housewares and even some naughty stuff. These independent consultants will assist you in setting up a registry and ordering gifts you’re most interested in.

Consider Epicure, Grace Adele, PartyLite, Passion Parties, Princess House, The Pampered Chef, Tupperware and Velata for a bridal shower led by an experienced consultant.

Your hubby-to-be will also be ready for a night out with the guys for his bachelor party.

Consider the Boston Pizza lounge to host a great evening for him and his friends.

Are you planning a honeymoon? Whether you are planning a trip nearby or to an exotic location, a travel agent can make sure all arrange-ments are in place for your journey. Consider Above & Beyond Travel or Tier One Travel to put together a travel package for you.

As the big day approaches, personalize your service by planning for readers, musicians, atten-dants and other special touches. Make sure each person is comfortable with their role, and del-egate reliable people to look after specific details.

Choose your vows carefully and decide whether or not to memorize them. Plan your thank-you speech carefully, and ask friends and family members to perform toasts.

Take full advantage of your rehearsal to work through any glitches that pop up. Remember that all questions are good ones – when you leave the rehearsal you should be confident that everything is in place for the following day.

Get a good night’s sleep! Your wedding day will be jam-packed as you are decked out from head to toe. Expect laughter, tears and many heartfelt moments.

Your smile will never be more beautiful than when you walk down the aisle.

One last piece of advice: This is not an all-inclusive list, so make your own timeline, using this as a basic guide.

Wishing you a perfect wedding!
