The don't sweat guide for weddings - #1 Make a Date with your Fiance

Congratulations and best wishes! The question has been asked and answered. You are officially engaged to be married - which is why everyone keeps asking you: When and where?

Nailing down the initial points may seem like a daunting task. There are so many choices and so many things to consider. They say the hardest part of planning is simply getting started. Then again, if done correctly the best part of planning is getting started.

Why not do it right! Ask your beloved on a date. Invite him/her to a candlelight dinner at your home. Set the scene with music and lighting. Order in or pre-cook something savory in which to indulge yourselves. Don't forget dessert since your mission is to stay at the table until you have fully discussed the wedding.

Before dinner turn off your phones and shoo away any roommates. Sit down with a bottle of wine and your notepad. Allow yourselves to fantasize. Ask your mate to picture their perfect wedding and describe it to you. Who are the people he/she envisions around him? What is the setting? How are you dressed? Now you do the same.

Write these images down. Do you want a white gown march down the aisle of a cathedral? or an intimate gathering of friends on the beach? Take time to dream. Explore the possibilities without regard to cost or logistics.

Once you have determined the mood and style that are important to you both....you are ready to get down to business.
