Planning a wedding can be a difficult and very time consuming task. But alas, like everything else these days, we can look to technology to help make wedding planning easier on us. Below are many ways in which we can make use of technology to help make planning the big day a little less stressful.
Create a Wedding Website
Having your own wedding website to inform your guests about things for your wedding is a great idea. It can save a lot of phone calls and conversations about hotels near the reception, directions on how to get the wedding ceremony and where you are registered. Having a web site should not replace sending out wedding invitations, but it can mean having a lot less inserts, also keeping your wedding costs down. If you are really tech savvy, you can have your guests RSVP online too! Then you do not have to deal with phone calls and mail. It can also save money because you do not need to send everyone a stamped RSVP postcard or envelope.
You can even add a wedding blog to keep friends and family up to date on how all of your planning is going.
Online Research
Making use of the vast amount of information on the web. Q&A sites like Yahoo! Answers are great resources to ask for ideas and opinions, and just for general research youc an get great planning information from places like Everything About Weddings. Making use of online resources is a great way for coming up with unique ideas to help make planning your wedding day special.
Wedding Invitations
As there are many online invitation and party planning tools out there such as eVite it is possible to avoid having to write out or print up all your wedding invitations. This can not only be a huge time saver, but a great cost savings too.
Wedding Music
Instead of hiring a potentially lame wedding band or DJ, consider making use of your iPod. You can take wedding song requests on your online RSVP system and create song playlists on your iPod for the reception dance.
Online Wedding Registries
You can create wedding registries online and save the hassles of going into the store and getting the sales pitch about how this is the time to request just about everything you will ever need. Now you can select items you wish for in the comfort of your own home. You can also track your registry online at many retailers also, so be sure to look into that when dealing with your registry.
