I did it and have been able to buy my wife flower arrangements with the same types of flowers that were in her wedding bouquet on special wedding anniversaries (e.g., 1st, 5th, 10th, the year we became parents, etc.). I also keep a photo of the bouquet to show the florist. She was so surprised the first time I did it. It went over really well. She immediately recognized that all of the flowers had been in her bouquet

Anna and Sarah went into detail with Bored Panda about the idea of the ‘perfect wedding dress.’ According to them, while the dress is an important part of the event, it’s still not at the core of what the wedding and marriage are all about.

“The concept of a ‘perfect wedding dress’ really only matters deeply to those who are probably focusing on the wrong thing,” Anna and Sarah said that if you find yourself obsessing about finding the perfect dress, you need to take a step back and reevaluate the hierarchy of things that are important to you, including why you’re getting married in the first place.

People Are Sharing Wedding Hacks That Anyone Who's Getting Married Should Check Out (25 Pics) Getting married and looking for a great groomsmen gift? Give something useful.

I've been married over 25 years, and attended/ been in many weddings over the years.

The best gift I ever received was about 20 years ago from my college roommate who's wedding I was in as a groomsman. It was a hammer, and a very nice hammer at that. I imagine it was in the $30-40 range. Great balance and weight.

At the time I thought "oh a hammer.... what the h*ll am I going to do with this?"

But then I moved out of my apartment, got a house and had a few kids. With every home improvement, swingset, outdoor project the hammer got used.

Once in a while I take a picture of the current project with the hammer in the shot and text it too him so that he knows I still use it.

I don't remember or still have any of the shot glasses or cheap beer steins, they were lost years ago. But not the hammer.

So think of something that will be practical beyond the next bachelor party and give a great groomsmen gift.

Along the same lines - I went to my local sporting-goods store and bought Swiss Army knives for each of my groomsmen and Best Man. (That's Victorinox, for Europeans among you.) I selected the appropriate style based on the person who was to receive it - an outdoorsman, a couple of office workers, a carpenter, a computer nerd. All were Big Success, and I think most are still in use, many years after.

1/2 My sister and I have a running joke. I will never die despite my failing health because I have a twisted relationship with sugar. I get a bit of a buzz from it, have a sweet tusk (like a sweet tooth but MUCH bigger) and type 3 diabetes (along with other health issues). One day she asked what I'm going to do if I die, and I said "Pour a Mars bar milkshake down me and I will be up and running like a loony in no time at all!" She then joked "Knowing you it would probably make you live forever. Every time you start to keel over you would knock back a pint of it and it would keep you going for a week!" That joke started 10 years ago and when she got married we bought her a blender, an envelope with £2.50 in it labelled 'Milk Money' and 4 Mars bars. Her now husband (awesome bloke) knew about the joke and they agree it was the best gift ever. They still use the blender. Framed the unopened milk money and ate the Mars bars...I bought them 2 Mars bar ornaments for a giggle which they love.

I think the whole wedding industry has a lot to answer for in terms of convincing people to spend ludicrous amounts of cash on pointless crap that no one will actually remember. Once you’ve fallen for that nonsense & families start to put their oars and their cash in, then you start to lose control, relatives you dislike get invited, people start bitching about the table they’re placed at and it becomes a total pain in the a**e. The best and most romantic wedding I’ve ever been to was a couple who fell out with their respective families over the bloated plans being made for them. Instead they booked a weekend in a picturesque city, invited a dozen friends and had a registry office ceremony. Following that, the wedding party went to the pub while the bride and groom had their photos taken in the local park before reconvening in a curry house for the wedding meal. Finally we bought a huge booze carry out and had a raucous party in the bridal suite of their hotel. Perfect! 😎

“There are literally thousands of incredible dresses directly available to you—it's almost a physical impossibility for only one to be right for you and, if that's how you're feeling, it's probably worth stepping back, taking a deep breath, and re-shifting your priorities,” the wedding experts suggested taking a calmer approach instead of stressing out over something that is unattainable. Perfection isn’t all that it’s cracked up to be and it’s best to avoid stress before your big day.

People Are Sharing Wedding Hacks That Anyone Who's Getting Married Should Check Out (25 Pics) If you are buying anything for your wedding, do not tell the vendors it’s for a wedding. Just say a party. Most companies charge 3-4x for weddings even if it’s the same stuff.

This includes cakes. You can just say it’s for a party before the wedding. Same cake. Hundreds of dollars cheaper...

If a vendor is attending the wedding, don’t try to bamboozle them. This is for stuff that you pick up (Tents, chairs, cake, lights, etc.)

Any vendors coming to the wedding should be prepared that it’s a wedding (band, photographer, caterer etc).

Anna and Sarah highlighted the fact that, unfortunately, far too many people are “caught up in the party and the image” of the wedding itself. They want to be in the spotlight, leave a lasting impression on their guests, and impress their closest family members, friends, and broader social circle.

#10

People Are Sharing Wedding Hacks That Anyone Who's Getting Married Should Check Out (25 Pics) Ask for documentation of your SO’s finances before you get married or move in together. Then discuss financial expectations in depth. This could prevent surprises in the future.

What your SO tells you and what is true may not be the same thing. This doesn’t mean that they’re lying, but their perspective of their financial situation may be different from yours. And your assumptions about marital finances may not be the same.

My personal experience is that my own SO told me that they had school debt, but they also were a successful businesses owner. I did not know until after the fact that they had bills in collections, including very small bills that should have been easy to pay, and the business was not paying the bills. They were relying on parents and romantic partners to foot the expenses. They also had not filed taxes in years. I’m very lucky I didn’t end up responsible for their personal debts. I paid tens of thousands of dollars of community debt because I knew they wouldn’t and didn’t want it to affect my credit score.

Finances aren’t romantic, but it cannot be stressed enough that a lack of financial transparency can kill an otherwise good relationship. Love is difficult when your brain is occupied by consuming debt and whether you can make the next payment on the credit card because you know your spouse can’t or won’t. The loneliest I have ever been was while being married to someone who, among other things, was financially irresponsible.

Better yet, I would strongly recommend that every marriage starts with a prenuptial agreement that outlines what you expect from your partnership, both financially and otherwise. We often think of prenups as being for the rich and famous. But they provide legal protections and fairness that most state laws don’t provide. You can also craft fair resolutions that otherwise wouldn’t be possible in many contentious divorces.

A prenup is the means to a (sometimes) cheaper divorce if things go awry.

However, when the desire to impress others becomes your number one priority, your focus during the actual wedding becomes split and moves away from celebrating the love that two people share toward social pressure.

People Are Sharing Wedding Hacks That Anyone Who's Getting Married Should Check Out (25 Pics) When you marry someone, you also marry their family. Make your peace with that before saying "I do".

I read this in a book once and feel it holds very true. When you start thinking about long term plans like marriage, unless your partner intends to cut off contact with them, you will have to deal with their family at some point. If you have constant friction with your in-laws and can't ever see yourself getting along with them, have an honest reflection on how you see the rest of your relationship pan out with their family in the picture. If you think you and your partner can manage it as a team, by all means go ahead, but definitely have a dialogue about it before committing.

People Are Sharing Wedding Hacks That Anyone Who's Getting Married Should Check Out (25 Pics) When writing a check for a wedding gift, make it out to one spouse or the other with old names. 'Mr and Mrs X' checks can't be cashed until the name change is final weeks later.

Just because someone gets married, doesn't mean the name changes right away (if at all obviously). So if you write a check to someone with their new name, it won't be able to be cashed until that is finalized weeks or months later.

The other way to get around this is to write OR instead of AND. So if you write Joe AND Nancy Smith, then they both must sign it and be on the account as Joe and Nancy Smith. But if you write Joe Smith OR Nancy Smith, then either one could cash it independently.

Edit: Apparently it is different by bank or by area. So seems this isn't universal. However probably still a good thing to follow just in case

It will save you literally hundreds if not thousands of dollars on simple wedding bands and elaborate diamond rings. Resizing a ring is also relatively cheap. Anywhere from $10-$30 from a local jewelry store or Mom and Pop store. Stores like Zales and Jared want you to think that you are buying brand new “untainted” diamonds and gold. In reality you are buying recycled gold and diamond that actually came from Pawn Shops and other used jewelry. The jewelry that is sold in Pawn Shops has a shelf life that varies but once it has been rotating for a set time and can’t sell the Pawn Shops sell it for the gold weight. The diamonds are taken out and sold in bulk while the gold is melted down into ingots then Jewelry manufactures bid on these materials that are then used to create brand new rings and settings from these recycled materials.

Make sure to check out the bustle situation before the ceremony. I ended up kneeling on the beach in my bridesmaid dress trying to bustle my friend’s skirt because we couldn’t figure it out and I hadn’t seen it done before hand.

This is a good idea also because people have different bodies so it's better if they choose a dress that they feel is comfortable and looks good on them.

I have always a sewing kit with me... my wife laughed about it, until she had a little accident with her trousers in the middle of Berlin :-)

Oooor stay single and skip the fuss? I’d be perfectly happy living alone with my snake and the little pug I want.
