Holding a wedding is not as easy as you think, there are many things you need to take into consideration. You have to choose your wedding theme first, depend on that, you need to choose your wedding dress, bridesmaid dresses, wedding cakes, wedding favors etc. It really is a complicated task, if you want a perfect wedding, you have to do plenteous preparation work. As I am strongly fond of cakes and cookies, I will introduce the wedding cake. The word cake comes from English, its original meaning is flat and round bread containing the meaning of happiness. Many people have eaten various kinds of wedding cakes, but not so many people who know the exact history of wedding cakes. The origin of wedding cakes can be traced back as far as the Roman Empire when icing is not invented. Simple barely bread is baked for the ceremony, the groom eat some of the bread, and break the rest over the head of his bride. The action of breaking the bread symbolizes good luck and fertility for the couple. But this tradition is no longer practiced any more. Nowadays, wedding cakes are becoming more and more luxurious and complex. Modern wedding cakes have no stipulate for the style, totally rest with your own references, and more and more brides are particular about creative wedding cakes. Wedding cakes are not just round any more, they can be in the shape of square, heart, triangle etc. Compared with one-tier wedding cake, tiered wedding cakes can be more gorgeous and delicious. Here are still some tips in ordering your wedding cake. First of all, you'd better have a photo or drawing of the cake you want with details of the scale and style of your wedding party, the guests number, then you can decide on the size of your wedding cake. If you want special patterns on your cake, you'd better order your cake ahead of scheduled time. Not all kinds of wedding cakes can be ordered all aroun the year, as in hot summer, the cream can easily go bad and melt, so you need to freeze your cake first. If you plan to have a destination wedding, you can just order your wedding cake through the hotel.

Crisp white blossoms evoke timelessness and are every bit as versatile as a little black dress.

Exchange rings backed by French tulips, calla lilies, and inexpensive azalea branches. The boughs' buds, paired with umbrella ferns -- a throwback to the 1800s -- give the sprays a vintage air; glossy vases keep them current.

All brides are going to look stunning on their wedding day. Whether a friend has applied the makeup or a professional Makeup Artist has; however sometimes bad things happen and thing don’t go quite according to plan. The hair might fall out of place or come un-done all together the makeup may be too heavy or to light...Murphy’s law is sometimes more powerful then the best wedding day planner money can buy.
 
Here are a few tips when choosing your Makeup Artist for your big day!
 
THE MAKEUP ARTIST TRIAL
 
1. DO a trial, reviews are great, recommendations are great, but your face is NOT your friends face, your skin may react differently to the exact same makeup look that you so loved on your best friends wedding day!!
 
2. Your Makeup Artist is on trial not you. Extract every little bit of information out of them! "will the makeup run if it rains?", "Will it crack in the heat?" don’t be scared to ask anything and everything, your paying top
dollar and if your not happy with what your getting make sure you let them know why!
 
3. Trial the different looks, have a back up plan, water proof foundation "in case it rains" may look completely different to all day foundation. pay the extra $65.00 - $100.00 for the extra trial run their is no point spending thousands on a photographer to look like a clown on your wedding day because the makeup didn’t last when you had a teary moment or it was so hot that your sweat left streaks in your foundation and blush.
 
4. Let your Makeup Artist know if you will look different on your wedding day e.g. if your going to have a fake tan on your wedding day you are going to need a completely different foundation and concealer, in fact you may need a completely new look!! The same goes for your hair color don’t expect that your eye shadow will look the same if you’re a brunette on the trial and a blonde on your wedding day!
 
THE LOOK
 
The look and color you choose for your big day will ultimately depend on your personal preference; however let your Makeup Artist recommend a few things "you don’t go to a doctor to tell them how you want
to cure a cold, you go because they have the experience a knowledge on how to do it better then you do!"
 
Some points to consider when you are choosing what look, you ultimately go for.
 
 •The time of the ceremony are you having a day or night wedding? A lighter, more natural look is better suited to a day wedding and a more dramatic look is better suited to a night wedding.
 
 •What time of year is your wedding? If you are having a Spring/Summer wedding, go for bright, pastel look. Warm, deeper shades will be better presented for a winter wedding.
 
 •If you are Blond or fair skinned, cool tones of grey, blue, soft pink and lilac are ideal.
 
 •If you are a brunette or olive skinned, warm neutral tones of brown, ...
