Wedding Lingo: S...

My three favorite wedding related words that begin with the letter "S" are:

STATIONERY
I love stationery;  I could spend hours looking for just the right message, the feel of the card stock, not just the front of the card, but the back too.  You could say I'm a stationery geek.    Enough about me.  You have lots of choices--a digital invitation sent by email, traditional 'send in the mail' invites both with an awesome array of designs from whimsical to opulent.
Minted.com has a "all-in-one" design; the RSVP detaches from the invite which makes for a less bulky invite and likely no extra postage needed.    GoldenMomentDesign Co. an Etsy featured company, is the place to find acrylic invitations, perfect for family members as a keepsake from your special day.

SONGS
Some couples think they need to stick to the traditional wedding procession songs to have a nice wedding by their guests standards.  I caution against that kind of thinking; don't allow yourselves to be limited.   Here in the Bay Area many couples take advantage of all the wonderful outdoor locations in which to be married.  Whether it's Faith Hill's "Breathe" or Billy Joel's, "Just the Way You Are" or this Elvis classic, "Can't Help Falling in Love", by either Andrea Bocelli or Haley Reinhart.    Love the melody of a particular song, but don't want the lyrics for your Big Day?  You might enjoy the Piano Guys, this one a piano/cello cover, but Piano Guys has a great variety from which to choose.  So many musical choices!!  Don't forget you'll want a Recession song too!  I highly recommend something up beat as you celebrate your union.

SEATING CHARTS:
Every smart planner knows the importance of a seating template.  If you are hosting a buffet-style or plated meal during your wedding reception you'll want to utilize a seating template in figuring out where your guests will be seated.  To master that tedious task easily visit Etsy for a variety of choices in both design and of course printed size.
