This is just a bunch of things I have 'happened' upon and would like to share. Please add stuff that you have picked up as well.
1. If you go to bridal expo's print out labels beforehand. I got the avery 30 per page address labels. Put name, date, address, phone. That way when you have to fill out entry forms to win crap, you just peel and stick!
2. Make a fake e-mail address. I made a wedding e-mail address. Now when I sign up for contests and stuff, I don't get bogged down with spam on regular e-mail.
3. The florist told me that he favors making bouquet's for the brides in shades of white with a HINT of color. That way the eye goes to the bride, not the bouquet.
4. Number all your invitations- take a pencil, and put numbers on the back of the response card. That way when people DO send back a blank card you can just look and say 'yup, #45 was uncle vine'.
5. If you are traveling overseas for a honeymoon make SURE to make a color copy of your passport. Keep a copy at home with a family member and keep a copy with you. If they are lost you will have little problem replacing while away.
That's all I have right now. If anyone has good stuff, please share!

Great tips! For number 1, I used address labels. You know, the ones that all of the non-profits send you as incentives to send them money.........

Great tips!! The wedding email is such a great idea- I wish I had thought of it earlier. I used to get some many emails from vendors!
