Are you planning a wedding in 2012 and trying to pinpoint the date? Getting married on a Sunday may offer more availability and often costs less than a Saturday wedding. Choosing a weekend with a Monday holiday can accommodate guests commuting to and from the wedding. Two potential weekends in 2012 include Memorial Day (May 28) and Labor Day (September 3). Making your wedding plans early (including the selection of a St Louis area wedding photographer) will assist you in attaining the wedding of your dreams.

As I shut down dave hunsche photography for Christmas, I want to take this time to wish you a very Merry Christmas! May the joy of the season be with your family, your friends, and most of all, with you. Whether you spend it with others or on your own, the holiday lasts for only a very short period of time each year, so savor it; or if you dread it, don't worry it’ll be over before you know it! So eat drink and get married, oops was that a slip?

So from dave hunsche photography in St Louis, to yours, Peace.

Engaged? Congratulations! You've set the wedding date. But the idea of planning such a huge event seems overwhelming.

1) First things first…

Determine the budget, size of the event, location, month, day, and time of day.

2) Budget advice…

If your budget allows, hiring a wedding planner is a great idea. They know the local vendors, can negotiate costs, and will manage the day alleviating stress.

3) Who pays for what?
