I always pictured getting married wearing a huge merangue of a wedding dress – you know the cinderella dress flowing everywhere…

Well the thing is I have fallen in love with a man who is four foot something. he is everything I want in a husband. We get looks because of the height difference, I am five four but who gives a rat’s ass because we are happy.

The thing is, at our wedding I don’t want us to look ridiculous. If I wore an enormous dress he would look even smaller. He probably would not even be able to ‘kiss the bride’ because the dress would be in the way, lol. Anyway, I know I could go for a more simple dress, but I am very pettite and angular. I am all knees and elbows and don’t really have the curves to carry off a shift dress sort of thing.

Please could I have some suggestions.

Thanks for answers.

What Kind of People Seek Wedding Sponsorship ?

There is a wide misconception on exactly what a wedding sponsorship is. The type of people who seek out sponsors for their wedding are, for the most part people who understand budgeting. The concept of wedding sponsorship has been around for quite a while but still in some circles controversial. People have read articles and heard stories about couples who have gone this route and saved thousands of dollars in the process but the interesting thing about some of these couples, is that they could easily afford the wedding in the first place. So why go through the process of locating sponsors? Could it be that it just made “good sense”. Now I would have said “business sense” but that’s where it gets controversial. I have listened to heated arguments about this exact topic, almost as if the discussion was about politics. Some argue that this is a special day and it should not be tainted by the domination of corporate involvement. Just to be fair, most of these arguments take place due to lack of information on this subject. I think that most people when they here the words “Corporate Sponsor” they think of banners, flyers, display booths, print media and even publicity gimmicks. At the very least have a preconceived image of the words “Sponsored By…” etched in their minds.

Sponsored weddings are not corporate events and should not be treated as such. The form of sponsorship, which appeals to most wedding couples and corporate sponsors alike, are cross promotion and barter opportunities. As an example, if you were already prepared to pay $7000.00 for the wedding venue and the vendor said to you “ look, if you give me the names of three more potential wedding couples that I might call to promote to my venue, I will give you a 70% discount ($4900.00). Now if you knew three couples that were getting married in the next year, you might be inclined to pass the name on to the venue owner, and take advantage of this discount. There is no different between this scenario and what a wedding sponsor can be. Two things to remember; everything is negotiable on some level and everything has some value to someone.

Today’s bachelor is different. He doesn’t want the type of party that will have his bride-to-be freaking out, ready to divorce him before they even get married. Bachelor party planning that includes strippers, obscene amounts of alcohol, and destroying hotel rooms is so 1980′s (and 1990′s).

Dare to be different. As best man, you need to show your best friend that you know him well. Your bachelor party planning needs to have his interests in mind, not yours. Just because you’re single and ready for a wild time, doesn’t mean the groom wants any part of it. Stick to the things he likes to do, and your party will be a success.

Is your friend a sports enthusiast? If so, then he would probably love a party that involves playing one of his favorite sports. How about a golf outing at his favorite course? You could even make it interesting by organizing a tournament with prizes. You could also have side competitions for longest drive, closest to the hole, and longest put.

If golf isn’t his game (or anyone else’s), you could play tennis, organize a racquetball tournament, play volleyball or Wallyball, have a basketball tournament, go to a paintball field, or play some flag football. Whatever sport you decide to play, make sure that it’s something the groom-to-be and the others will enjoy.

Don’t forget that drinking can still be part of your party; you just don’t need to make it the focus of the entire event. After you’re done playing, plan to have a little get-together at a local bar, or back at a participant’s house.

Maybe the groom-to-be is an outdoorsman. If that’s the case, plan a hike to a camping spot where you can do an overnight trip. Drinking can also be a part of those festivities.

The point here is that planning a bachelor party doesn’t have to include the same old stuff men have always done. If the groom-to-be isn’t comfortable with strippers, he doesn’t have to skip the party all together. There are plenty of other options that will make the night memorable for all involved.
