Let Love Light The Way
| Q | Is lighting something I should think about when planning the wedding or will most venues have this under control? |
| A | Emma Mead says: Lighting is most certainly something that's underestimated when it comes planning a wedding. Not only does this add to the atmosphere but choosing some mood lighting, for example, you can opt for this to either match or contrast your wedding theme. Add a little bit of sparkle with an LED backdrop or dancefloor. Or if you've having a rustic theme then maybe some warm fairy lighting to complement your chosen style. Giant letters are often LED lit too, so these also add extra light to your day. Additional lighting are subtle details that you'll look back on in photos and videos grateful that you added it. |

Clever Thinking
| Q | I'm a bride on a budget. I have a 'maximum spend' for my venue decor, where do you think my money will be best spent? The ceremony room, the tables or even the dancefloor? |
| A | Karen Smith says: Decorations are important throughout your wedding day but one of the best options for your budget is to choose decorations that be can used throughout your entire day. For example, decorations for your ceremony that can then be repurposed for your wedding breakfast; or flowers to decorate your aisle can be then used as centrepieces! Ceremony table decorations can then be used on your top table or a backdrop to frame the table for your signing photos during your ceremony. It can then be moved to be the backdrop for your speeches and can even frame your DJ in the evening. |
