Congratulations! Your ship is sailing soon. No small ship, this, chugging along a lazy river. We’re talking about a colossal wedding vessel with cruise-ship allure: one that only drops anchor in the larger ports of the world.
It’s the kind of ship that merits an equally large and bedazzling wedding party, full of fanfare and flamboyance, exquisite gourmet fare and — of course! — a big dance night.
You certainly don’t need such a ship. How you organize it, who you go to, which party room you book and which DJ you engage, are decisions that take a while. There is—as yet—no plan or blueprint on how to prepare the ideal wedding.
These days there are lots of wedding magazines and websites. They all promise shiploads of tips and tricks to make your wedding day special.
Unfortunately, they usually don’t go beyond some very superficial advice. Things you’ve known for a long time.
This handbook gives you advice on how to plan your evening and dance party. It’s sure to delight you with countless tips on how to make your wedding unforgettable. It will also guard you against pitfalls and common blunders.
We approach everything from a local perspective. Why? Because the tips given on American websites don’t always take into account values and customs in our part of the world.
