Plan your budget It’s impossible to start planning your wedding without deciding your budget, so first you’ll need to get a temporary budget figures together as a priority. Whether your budget is set, than look for the wedding venues and services out there that will suit your needs and is within budget. Last year’s average cost of a wedding was $28,427 and per person average cost was $204. It doesn’t mean you have spend this much, but It’s just an idea of the average. Some couples decide to pay for their wedding themselves, where as others share a cost with their parents, but these days generally bride and groom contributing the majority, if both are working otherwise you can discuss with your family members, know who is contributing and how much.

Date & location After planning a budget it’s time to start

making decisions. Start with choosing a date because this will determine your timetable for organizing every event. It will be the first thing guests, vendors and everyone will want to know. Think of year you prefer, weather, vacation time, holidays and other seasonal time. Then choose your date and check that preferred date is available or not. Because venues book-up fast, some book-up to a year and half in advance. Make sure the people you can’t do without your parents, bridal party and don’t have conflicts on the dates you choose and double check their schedules once you booked.

Start a Guest List This is another difficult one because you want to invite

everyone to your wedding whom you know. The more people you have invited the more you have to spend. While starting your guest list and knowing your estimated maximum guest count early is difficult. While preparing a guest list than Add your names first, and then work downwards in rows starting with the most important people in your life, think until you have included everyone. At this point, do not worry about the actual number of people you have down but think more about not neglecting anyone. Once you are sure you have everyone included, start eliminating people off the list or at least categorizing people according to the daytime and evening guests.

Wedding VenueWhen all 3 tasks have completed and once you have all of those decisions made, than start searching venues. When you are researching for venue and find a venue that you like, I suggest contact them and asking for availability on the actual date of the wedding. If they do, then go further and visit the venue. You can choose at some nice venues like banquet halls in Long Island. Make sure the place is well equipped to make your wedding party a memorable affair.

Wedding Cloths and Accessories After booking of your vendors..Now it’s time

to relax and go for wedding dress shopping. Shopping for a wedding dress will be one of the most exciting parts of the whole wedding preparation process. To do research, design and order properly before you even start to look around and you should have the bit knowledge about dresses. Try to find latest magazines that provide the information about the latest trends. When search for your wedding dress is finished, then decide what type of accessories you would like to match your wedding dress and perfect fit for the special day. General rule is you are choosing a classic and simple wedding gown and accessories with glamorous and eye catching accessories.

Deciding Your Wedding Gifts List

While you are getting married, all lovely presents you are going to receive. Even better, you get to pick them all yourself and most girls love shopping so going into an online store and choose anything you want for your guest list, it is also a smart idea. A wedding list is good for couples in which that choose unusual presents that you might not purchase yourself or easily select gifts that show the love you have for each other. These lists can be arranged at most popular department stores or if you can’t decide than created online.

Research Vendors

Choosing the right vendors can be quite time consuming if you are not sure what you are looking for and how to research. Make a list of certain vendor categories that you need for your wedding helps to organize the vendor information. When you are researching, I suggest that you check the vendor’s portfolio, vendor’s company websites, bio, pricing info and vendor’s blog. To do research on every single type of vendor that you need, but book up quickly the essential ones like photographer, videographer and caterer. Once you have completed the following steps then you will move to your entertainment event decorations, invitations, cake etc.

Foodfirst you decide what kind food and refreshment you will offer at the reception dinner. Try to find medium between what you would please your guests and how much you can afford. Some couples choose the base menu on the culture of the family. Hiring catering halls in long island is cheap and you will have to handle personally. Pick a cake according to your wedding theme, check the baker again to be assured that your order is still booked and ready to plan.
