Sorry this one is a little later then normal.  I have been dong weddings all weekend and those people are my first priority.
Themed weddings.  They can be a lot of work for the bride and groom as well as the guests.  There is planning, coordinating, getting the right supplies, and making sure that everyone is going to be able to go through with it.
I did a wedding this weekend where the bride dressed as Wonder Woman and the groom as Superman.  The wedding party all dressed as a super hero.  Some of the guests dressed in outfits as well.  It was a good wedding and got a lot of attention from people in the park where it was held.  I dressed in the colors of most super heros blue, red and yellow tie.  The photographer dressed in the same colors as well.  Even though it took some planning (and begging) on the part of the bride and groom, all went well.
The second wedding of the same day took place at midnight in a park.  The bride and groom wore pajamas and I did as well.  It was only the three of us there for that wedding.  It was a simple wedding that meant a lot to the couple.  They were both every happy and loved every minute of the ceremony.
I never thought that I would be able to weddings like this.  I was wrong.  I had a great time and enjoyed every minute of the ceremonies. So, to brides and grooms that are thinking of a themed and dressed wedding, I say go for it!!!!  It is what you make it, it is your day, not the guests, parents or even the people you hire to make it happen.  Think it through plan and enjoy.

Blessings on your day,

Planning a wedding is a great tasks.  Start early when planning, make a timeline of when things need to be done, set a budget, and have all your vendors in place before hand.  This will take the stress and hassle off the bride (most of the time), and the groom.  As a couple work together to do the planning, remember it is not just one person's wedding it is both of yours. Make sure you have a go to person for the day of the wedding.  The vendors like to have a person that they can count on to help things flow.  I, as the minister always ask for a go to person.  It has made the wedding day much easier.  We have been able to catch things and get them fixed so the bride and groom don't have to worry.
Keeping the ceremony on time is very important.  You have quests waiting and they may have plans later.  There are also the vendors.  You have them for a specfic time frame most will charge extra for time used or at the end of that time will leave due to other engagments that they have.  That is not fair to you to have vendors leave because of a late starting time.
With all this being said, have fun on your special day, make it enjoyable for everyone and most of all enjoy the bliss of your marriage from this day forward and forever and ever.

Blessings on you all have a good July 4th.
