The wedding day is the culmination of several months' worth of preparation. That solemn walk down the aisle and the subsequent exchange of vows and kisses are the fruits of months of planning even the smallest details. Although everyone would like to think that weddings are all about love and celebration, as with most happy endings, stress and grief are the prelude to this wonderful occasion.

There are several things a couple must attend to for this special day. More often than not, it is the bride who takes charge of the wedding preparations. The massive number of details a bride has to attend to may drive her crazy, so a wedding checklist would be very useful.

The Theme and Motif

The theme of the wedding sets the tone for the whole event. Almost every aspect that’s included in a wedding is dependent on the theme. The theme is complemented by the motif or the color palette used for most of the décor, the gowns and tuxes of the entourage, the invitations and sometimes, even the flowers. For instance a winter themed wedding might use silver and ice blue for the motif.

The Program

What do you want to do on your wedding day, apart from the ceremony and reception? You will need to include traditional activities like the first dance and cutting of the cake but what else do you want to do with your guests. Do you want a full blown dance party or a mini concert? How about an audiovisual presentation of your love story?

The Venue

The venue is one of the items on the list you need to cross out first. Some wedding themes revolve around the venue. For instance, a couple who are both wine connoisseurs would want to hold their event at wine country wedding venues. Beach lovers might want to consider a beach wedding or cliff ceremony overlooking the vast sea.

Nature lovers and outdoor enthusiasts might want to check out the wedding venues Lake Tahoe has to offer. The options are limitless, you can choose from event centers, ski resorts, luxury and boutique hotels as well as spacious restaurants serving great food. Reservations should be made as early as possible since Lake Tahoe is one of California’s most popular tourist attractions.

Lake Tahoe wedding venues are just some of the options that offer a stunning backdrop for a memorable wedding. If you’re walking down the aisle soon, a checklist is a great way to begin the preparations. For more information on wedding checklists, go to frugalbride.com.
