Finding the perfect location for your wedding ceremony can be a bit tricky. The need to find something unique and somehow meaningful at the same time is so strong that every place may present you with fantastic reasons to choose it and disappointing flaws, enough for you to move on to the next option. Venue hunting will prove to be one of the more taxing things you need to do as you plan your wedding.

When we were planning for our wedding, I wanted to have a wedding outdoors. Well, if not the wedding ceremony outdoors then at least, I wanted to have the wedding reception held outdoors.
Unfortunately for me, the wedding month we chose (July) was the rainiest month in the tropical country of the Philippines. My Mom was able to persuade me hold the weddings indoors.
No regrets though. The week leading up to our wedding saw the heaviest downpour that we saw in Manila so I was thanking my lucky stars that we chose to hold the wedding indoors. At the wedding day …read more

I’m currently visiting friends here in Adelaide, South Australia and having the time of my life catching up with friends and visiting various tourist-y sites.

Are you considering a wedding at your place at your parents’ place? Before you decide on this route, perhaps you’d like to consider the following things:
1. Have you got a big enough kitchen to accommodate a catering staff? Is your kitchen properly equipped? If you have a family-sized refrigerator, it may not be enough to hold everything. The lack of a large, fully-equipped kitchen is not a deal-breaker though. You can ask your caterer to cook everything at their place and bring them in to your place at the day of the wedding. If you hire a caterer that knows …read more

You want something different? Why not a wedding while you’re in-flight somewhere? Not sure if getting married aboard an airplane while it’s mid-air it suits me but if something different is your style then an in-flight wedding is definitely one of them!
Walking down the aisle might soon take on a new meaning after easyJet went down the shameless publicity-seeking route of its rival, Ryanair, by announcing that it may begin offering in-flight marriages.
