Difference between Spring and Winter Wedding Invitations
Contemporary wedding etiquette allows you to create wedding invitations that reflect whatever you want about your wedding style. The formality of the event, your wedding colors, your personal style and more should all be taken into consideration. You can choose wedding invitations that are elegant, traditional, whimsical or trendy. Your wedding invitations can reflect the theme of your wedding in motifs, borders, colors and embellishments. When you are choosing wedding invitations for your big day, one thing you may not consider is the significance of the season in which your wedding will be held.
Is there actually such a thing as spring wedding invitations or winter wedding invitations? While most wedding invitation printers and online wedding sites do not necessarily differentiate their wedding invitations by seasons, there are definite differences between wedding invitation styles that are popular in the spring and those that are appropriate for a winter wedding.
If you are ordering invitations for a winter wedding, you might look for some of the following details:
Winter motifs
Motifs are small images and figures that appear at different places on your wedding invitation. Some popular winter wedding invitation motifs include falling snowflakes and snow-covered pines. If you are in a whimsical mood, you might choose a wedding invitation topped with a bride and groom snowman, or a holly leaf or sprig of mistletoe for the Christmas season.
Winter Colors
Silver and gold are always popular in winter wedding invitations. Touches of silver printing on snowflake borders are an elegant way to express a wintertime theme. Other winter colors are Christmas colors. If your wedding takes place around the winter holidays, you might choose invitations with rich, red envelope liners and touches of red printing. Deep forest green satin ribbons are another wintry touch that you can subtly add to your wintertime wedding invitations.
Holiday photos
Photo invitations give you another way to include something seasonal in your wedding invitations. Choose a beautiful, snowy forest scene as the backdrop for your wedding invitations, or a bough of pine and a red ribbon to express the season.
Seasonal Embellishments Colors are rich with symbolism and meaning. Choose flat invitations in white, then embellish with rich garnet satin ribbons and foil envelope liners, or enclose the invitation in a translucent wrap patterned with snowflakes.
If you are buying invitations for a spring wedding, you might consider some of the following elements in your wedding invitations:
Flower motifs
Delicate flower prints on corners or borders are one way to invoke a spring feeling in your wedding invitations. Sprays of bouquets and all over background prints of growing flowers are common springtime motifs for wedding invitations.
Vibrant colors
Bold, splashy prints in vibrant colors sing spring in a loud voice for a contemporary springtime wedding. Bright oranges, turquoise and persimmon are among the hottest colors for springtime weddings. Choose colors for your wedding invitations that coordinate with your wedding colors to get a completely coordinated look for your entire event.

Pandora Buying Decisions
There are many different decisions people are faced with every day but purchasing Pandora doesn’t need to be one of them.
People are faced with decision every day. Many of these decisions are normally made at work because people spend most of their lives at work. These types of decisions are usually very rational decisions – for example someone may prioritise their workload so that the important things get done first. Decisions also need to be made outside of work. These decisions tend to be less rational, and depending on where people are and who they are with, they can be very irrational.
One decision people have to make is what they can buy. This is a very important decision as purchasing an item can help people express themselves in different ways. There are many choices available to consumers as retailers try to attract as many people as possible. Some people like to buy the latest gadgetry and electrical equipment such as the new slim and lite PSP and brand new high definition televisions whilst others like to purchase top jewellery brands such as Pandora and Leo Diamond.
Purchasing electrical equipment can certainly help people relax, but since people spend most of their time at work and outside the house, it makes sense to buy something they can see all the time. Buying Pandora enables people to do this as they can wear Pandora on their arm mainly, and also around their neck. This means that people can constantly walk around in their day to day lives and show off their Pandora jewellery.
Pandora is also very fashionable and wearing Pandora can certainly make people feel better about themselves. This is especially important when people find themselves in situations where they lack confidence, for example at work. Pandora is so lovely to look at that observers may well comment on the Pandora jewellery they see and make a positive and kind comment. This can then inspire confidence in the person wearing the Pandora jewellery.
There are many other reasons why people buy Pandora too and again these are all decisions which people have come to. Some people like to customise their own jewellery and therefore Pandora is an obvious choice when buying jewellery as people can pick and choose which Pandora charms they want. Other decisions include price points – the initial bracelet or necklace is a set price, and people can add as many charms as they want at the time or can afford at the time. When people have more money to spend they can then buy more Pandora jewellery.
Pandora is one of the most sought after jewellery brands in the UK and people just love to have it. Buying into the Pandora brand should not be a decision but a way of life. It should be second nature to consumers as Pandora has so many qualities associated with it.

Tips on Keeping a Wedding Affordable
Let's face it; we can't all have a Beverly Hills style wedding. If the thought of your wedding day makes you cringe at the thought of the bills you will have to pay to afford it, it is time to plan a budget. Yup, that B word.
That doesn't mean we can't have fun with what we have. You too can have a beautiful wedding on a budget. It just takes a bit of extra planning and knowing where to go.
Budgeting On The Small Things - To Spend More On The Important Things
The trick to planning a wedding is to be realistic as well as knowing what is important. Do you really need to have expensive roses at every turn? Do you need for your wedding party plates to be porcelain and gold? Realize that the more you can save on certain aspects, the little bit more you could spend on the things that matter to you most, like the wedding dress.
Start with knowing how much you would like to spend, and be realistic. Here's a list at the necessary expenses you can expect from a wedding:
Ceremony site
Reception site
Food/Caterers
Wedding cake
Bride's dress
Groom's tuxedo
Bride's maids' dresses
Invitations
Photography/Video
Tables and other equipment rentals
Transportation
Flowers
Decorations
Wedding favors
Music
Thank you cards (for after the wedding)
You might notice that really, it can be a very simple list when you put it all together and know what you will need. You can go through the list one by one. Note what will be most important to you and where you would be willing to budget. There are tricks to getting the wedding you want, and spending what you want. You don't need a wedding consultant or a high priced caterer to help. In fact, you'll save money if you can do it yourself.
Locations For Your Wedding On A Budget
It all starts with where the wedding will take place. It could be something as simple as a park and gardens. Imagine you might have to decorate less if you pick a location that is already beautiful.
If it will be a church, perhaps see if the church might already be decorated itself. Many churches do not need much decorating additions at all; some already have flowers already in place. If many weddings happen at a particular location, see if you can conspire with another bride and split the cost on flowers and decorations at the place, by having your wedding a little later in the afternoon on the same day.
The location itself doesn't have to be expensive. This is especially true if you call ahead and plan early. The earlier you pick a location, the easier it is to get what you want and at a good price. Remember, a weekday wedding might actually be more affordable than a weekend wedding.
Wedding Cake and Food
Let's start with the cake. There are now tricks that many bakeries are doing to be able to help you get a nice cake without spending a lot. One of the newer tricks is to make a 'fake' cake. The cake has only certain parts that are real cake, like a certain corner of the cake where the bride and groom will cut into, and the top part for saving.
After the cake is cut into, it can be carted off, or it can remain on the table as a decoration only. Pan style cakes are then passed to guests. You could even have mini-cakes created for each guests, which is still cheaper. In the end, it is more affordable to do it this way. Ask a baker about making a 'fake' cake for a tight budget.
For the food, a buffet style wedding is highly recommended by most. It relieves the problem of having to ask, "Chicken or vegetarian?" Imagine all those lost cards and the occasional surprise guests? Buffet style is certainly the way to go.
Plus, if you still want to skimp on the caterer, you can ask the cooks in the family to conspire with you and help out. What could be better to share with friends and family than the favorite dishes you grew up loving? It is a great way to share some memories with all.
Wedding Gowns and Tuxedos
There is so much to consider here. It is an important part of your wedding, though you will only wear a wedding gown once. If you think it will be an important memento that you will want to keep for a while, the best part is to plan ahead and shop early. Perhaps if you consider it a little more, you might think of borrowing a wedding dress, or reselling the dress after on consignment.
Consignment shops are great locations to get designer wedding dresses that are still in like new condition. You'll save so much money and you'll still get a dress, and you might find a wider selection in one or two locations. Don't forget about bride's maids' dresses. Check those same locations for ideas.
Tuxedos are a bit easier to deal with, but what you want to remember is to call in as early as possible. Get all the men fitted and make sure the tuxes arrive at least a day early, so you can make any needed changes if there are problems. You'll save time and frustration by doing it early.
Wedding Invitations, Flowers, and Favors
Other places you can save are in the small things. Buying flowers that are in season can be more affordable. Favors can be bought in bulk online at a variety of stores. Again, shopping around and planning ahead can help.
Wedding invitations are probably a place where you will want to save money by planning early. One of the very first things to think about is what to say and how many invitations you need. You can shop online for wedding invitations and you might find them cheaper online. You can get a copy of an invitation before they are printed off, so you can make any needed corrections before they are sent off.
Music, Decorations and Wedding Photography
Music for during the wedding and at the reception can be selected before hand and made to play on speakers. Ask a music and tech savvy relative to help with burning disks of music and setting up the system. You'll save money on a DJ.
Decorations can be easily bought online. There are many you can buy in bulk and you can purchase ahead of the event, especially to ensure you have enough. Centerpieces can be as simple as a glass vase with candles or a bowl with fancy candies inside.
The photography can be easily worked with. Digital cameras have a very good quality and are relatively cheap. You can give some to photo savvy relatives who can be in charge of taking photographs at the wedding and after. If you want to ensure professional quality, hire a photographer for the wedding only, and select how many shots you want ahead of time.
So you too can take steps to ensure you will have a beautiful wedding, even if you have a limited budget. Take it easy on certain elements to spend more on things that matter. Keep it simple, and keep it fun.

The Wedding Photographer
Photojournalism, which is the collection, editing and presenting of news for publication or broadcast, has become an approach to documenting the wedding adopted by many top wedding photographers in recent years. The photo album almost becomes a documentary. Pictures can be a combination of color and black an white, which gives added interest. The Wedding Photojournalist doesn't just take pictures, they create memories. Many of the photos on a couples wedding day can't retaken. Like the ceremony; when it's over, it's over. Or, when he lifts her veil and they kiss for the first time as husband and wife, you want a wedding professional, who has the right equipment, looking through that lens.
When selecting your wedding photojournalist, the business details such as the contract, album design, number of proofs, schedule, and price are all necessary details that need to be discussed and agreed upon. But the saying, "You Get What You Pay For", certainly applies when shopping for a creative wedding photojournalist. If the price is right, but the pictures aren't, the savings surely won't be worth it. A professional will have professional equipment in quality camera bags.
First, you need to be on the same page in regards to what you're expecting to receive at the end of the day. If there are specific pictures that you want taken, make sure you let your photojournalist know in advance. Don't assume that they'll automatically know. You don't, however, want to over control your photographer. The most memorable shots will be those natural, undirected moments.
If you look at wedding albums of your parents or grandparents, they're pretty much the same. Bride and groom; bride and groom with bride's parents; bride and groom with groom's parents; bride and groom with both sets of parents; bride and groom hands displaying rings; and so on. Couples are now looking for something different. They want their photographs to express who they are and what the day was really about. With maybe a few posed shots thrown in here and there. It takes a skilled creative professional to document your wedding successfully in this style. Capturing the REAL moments of the day, not just what you looked like. Don't trust your treasured memories to an uncle with a camera; trust them to that professional with the camera bag full of high-end camera equipment and accessories that will produce that beautiful, one-of-kind wedding album.
