What Makes A Perfect Gay Wedding?

When a couple decides they want to bind their love in the eyes of the law and the rest of the world they choose to get married. It is great that same sex couples can get and they can enjoy all the traditions and trimmings of a typical wedding. However not every gay wedding will be the same and may not always follow the traditions as most weddings.

Most people have thought about what kind of wedding they would like, so have an idea already in mind. If not then you have to get your thinking caps on as how you see things can be quite pivotal to how the rest of the wedding will look and go. If you have idea about how you want the suits to look or where or how the party after wards will go you could work with that and let it influence the rest of the day.

One of the first things you want to do is find the location. This can be tricky making sure they are available. Look around and see if they are suitable to host a gay wedding. Booking the right place gets the ball rolling and sets it in stone giving everyone a date to work with.

The next step would be figuring out how many people you're going to invite to your gay wedding. You want numbers and this is quite important as once you know you can book the right tables and other things. The numbers could also affect the location, you don't want somewhere too big or too small, just right. The invitations are a vital way of finding out the numbers. Some design can go into the invites and depends how much money you have to spend on your big gay wedding they you could make then quite fancy.

The other main thing is to make sure you have someone who is registered to conduct a gay wedding. Of course there are religious things to people get wed so make sure you get a person you want. Once you have someone booked then you have the foundations of any wedding.

Now you have the main building blocks of a gay wedding you can start to put the little bits together. This is where you can really put your own style to proceedings. There is the clothes you need to think about. What are the two lucky men or women going to wear? Do you want things to have a certain look or colour scheme? The transportation needs to be looked at and the cake needs addressing.

The other main thing that is important but not necessary is the dance party after wards. For some this is one of the main focuses of the night and for some the most memorable. Again you will need to find a venue and catering for this. Also music and entertainment for the night. This is when the people can let their hair down and have fun.

These are the basics of a gay weddings and if you follow them you can't go far wrong. The most important thing really is the loving couple and the fact they are getting married, committing to each other and expressing their love.

Getting Your Wedding Off to a Good Start

Always wondered where to begin on your big wedding day? You have both decided to come out to family and friends. You have fallen in love, had an engagement celebration and most importantly picked a date that suits you both.

Getting inspiration is your top priority. Go grab a good book from your local library or bookshop and indulge at all the cake designs and table decorations. Or why not try and browse the internet, visual inspiration is always the best.

The main things to consider once you have set your date is: how much money do you want to spend? Would you like a wedding reception, a church or maybe you want to be extravagant and have a wedding abroad? Whatever you decide - each of these options will require specific planning.

Weddings abroad will need to be booked way in advance, maybe you have a place in mind but have never been. Therefore a trip to your dream destination is a must! Make sure you check out where your ceremony will be held and most importantly, check they are happy to have civil ceremonies. Having a wedding abroad does not just require yourself and your partner to do some planning, family and friends will usually want to take part too. Why not set them some specific tasks to help take some pressure off your shoulders? E.g. find a designer who can design wedding invites or find an exceptionally good cake lady?

Tickets for family and friends will need to be purchased in advance for your wedding abroad, so invitations must be sent out straight away, so your guests can start saving and you won't be disappointed if you there aren't enough seats on the plane!

Communication is the key to a perfect gay wedding. Whilst you and your partner may have full time jobs, it is important to spare some time where you will dedicate an hour or two once a week to discuss wedding plans. That way, you each know what task is yours for the following week. If it is a joint decision, i.e you both want to choose the cake, both take part in looking on the internet together. Remember, weddings are stressful times (almost as stressful as moving house!) not just because you want to have a memorable day - but you want to make it perfect. Don't let the heat of planning go to your head and try and take all of it on board yourself. You are a team and you don't want to dishearten your partner by not allowing them to get involved. Compromise.

To summarise, have fun, let loose and work together. Book in advance and outline your requirements and don't forget that budget! Have a splendid wedding.

Choosing the Perfect Gay Wedding Gift

Choosing a wedding gift for the same sex partner can sometimes be a little different than the traditional wedding purchase. Some couples may be merging two households into one and be over-run with pots and pans. Or maybe they have a honeymoon that they would like to put all their money into. They may have even just bought a caravan and would like some items for that. Whatever it is, it may be ideal for the couple to create a register.

If you are the one purchasing the gift, knowing the couples interests, needs or hobbies may be worthwhile. If you don't know the couple that well and don't have time to get in-touch with family members, a fine wine or liquor will always go down a treat. After all, they definitely have a reason to celebrate! If you have some extra cash, why not expand the wine into gift set - some nice goblets or champagne flutes are always handy. Or possibly a voucher to a top restaurant, where they can enjoy that nice bottle on their way or way back!

Help the couple build a nice cosy home, blankets, side tables, towels and kitchenware are always great presents. Or why not make it personalised? There are plenty of online silverware shops that will allow you to put their name or date onto the gift or gift box. Helping them to remember their special day.

Another route you could take would be to make a wedding present yourself? Maybe you could paint a photo and have framed - maybe even take a few photos you have of the happy couple and get professionally framed and mounted? If you are musically minded - why not write a song, compose a poem - something the happy couple will remember forever

You could offer to help out with something at the wedding rather than a present, maybe you could arrange all the flowers, or the cake - you could even bake and ice the cake yourself?

To summarise, whether you are a close friend to the couple or a distant relative there is plenty of inspiration for you to grab on the web. Have a look around at what is on offer whilst considering the couples needs/hobbies/interests. Remember, if you do not know their personal preference on a wedding gift, beverages and food compliments always go down well! Happy gift shopping.
