Compleletly lost trying to plan my wedding!!

I am about to plan my wedding and I need some ideas. I want a small wedding low budget. Were shooting for a june or july wedding, so when should I technically start planning it?? Also I need some ideas on how to plan a wedding obviously I have never...

planned a wedding before and I dont know where to start!! like what do I do first??? Also any cheap honeymoon ideas???

I bought my dress at the mall for 5 dollars at deb during an after prom sale. after all the kiddies go to prom check out the mall for a cheap dress. you dont have to go far for a honeymoon. every state has awesome attractions and hotels. so search the web on things to do in your state. we got married at city hall and rented out space at a restaurant for after. we spent 500 total on everything all together. goodluck!

You're planning a June or July wedding for 2009?!?! Then I say you're running a little behind schedual! It usually takes about a year or more to plan a wedding! You'll probably be able to plan it in time, but you'll need to do some serious work NOW!

If you're thinking June or July in 2010, that'd make a lot more sense.

Anyway, start with a color theme. This year hot wedding colors are lavender and dark chocolate brown. Make sure to choose colors that you like!! You also need to book a date at a church you like and schedual a rehearsal. You'll need to pick out music and either have a small quartet orchestra play it, or get the music on a cd. Most fairly large churches have sound systems. (Canon in D is what brides usually have) but you'll also need music for when your bridesmaids and groomsman come down as well, which will be different than Canon in D. You need to decide who you're bridesmaids and groomsmen will be and pick out their dresses and tuxes. The dresses and tuxes should be in your color scheme that you chose earlier. There also should be decorations in the church, like bows on the aisles.

And that's not even including the reception! I don't think anyone here at funadvice can really help you plan. You should totally get some wedding magazines and get help from your married girl friends.

Sorry if I overwhelmed you! Good luck!
