Tip of the Day: Giving a wedding speech? "Talk about the couple. Use your specific, personal experiences to your benefit and incorporate unique, unexpected or quirky details, but avoid too many inside jokes or “you-had-to-be-there” references. The assembled want to hear about what you have to say about the newlyweds — not about that time you and your friend went to Vegas," says Brian Mazo, a professional writer at HelpWriteThis.com.

The incredible colors of the sky provided such a gorgeous backdrop for this couple's wedding photos.

Pure bliss! You can truly feel the happiness radiating from this lovely couple.

Your wedding is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to celebrate with all of your loved ones from different walks of life, all under the same roof. The odds are that you may have relatives, bridal party attendants or friends who haven't met each other yet or spent much time together. If that's the case, then consider breaking the ice with a fun activity so that they can become better acquainted before the big day finally arrives.
Tip of the Day: Rothweiler Event Design recommends holding the entire wedding on the beach instead of just the ceremony. This will give you the beautiful space for the full six hours, as opposed to just a quick 30-minute ceremony. Frankly, there is too much set up and preparation required to just host the ceremony and run. Plus, when you have the entire party in one location, you'll be able to find beaches that will give you more privacy, whereas if you simply host your ceremony there, your wedding will become a spectator sport.
