DJs are very popular because they can play anything under the sun and usually have a large repertoire. Many people prefer this option to a live band, and it it definitely less expensive alternative. DJs come in all shapes, sizes, and energy levels. My ideal DJ is someone who is neat, dresses appropriately, and who has high quality equipment. You want to make sure your DJ has a large collection of songs.

Destination weddings have become extremely popular over the past few years as a way to extend the wedding celebration beyond just the wedding day and go to an exciting location. Even through destinations are more popular than ever you need to keep in mind the different factors when planning a wedding away from home. Here are some tips for finding a perfect destination location:

1. Check out real wedding stories on The Knot, this is one of the first places I went before I decided to get married in Maui. Also, check out The Wedding Channel both sites have great profiles of destination weddings with information on the locations.

2. Speak with a travel agent who specializes in honeymoons.

3. Pick up a few travel and weddings magazines they usually list great honeymoon spots, which are often great wedding spots, too.

4. Finally but not least surf the web for great destination wedding spots. Lots of resorts are marketing themselves this way, so you should find some great options.

Hello everyone,

I’m starting a new item of the week to talk about It’s “Wedding Thursdays” every Thursday I will give advice on wedding clothing, jewelry, reception pieces photographers, and how to save money on your wedding. I know how difficult it can be planning a wedding I did it 2 years ago when I got hitched. I also learned a lot and wished someone would have told a few things I had to find out the hard way like: how to get a designer couture wedding dress for less, and how to get the best wedding invites for less and still have them look very chic or even the best makeup for your wedding day. Stayed tuned for next Thursday.
