Tip of the Day: "MC stands for Master of Ceremonies. He or she will ultimately control the progression of the evening and will be the liaison between your band and your guests. Whether you decide to choose a trusted family-friend or your band, make sure his or her personality is in sync with the energy you've imagined. An experienced MC can help eloquently escort you and your guests through the event and make sure everything runs smoothly!," says Tori Fuson of the Bay Kings Band.

Tip of the Day: Consider the hidden costs of getting married in a church. "After all, they are a business too!" says celebrity event planner Donnie Brown. He recommends reading the fine print on what kind of music is allowed, what you can decorate and where your photographer will be able to stand (if they are isolated to the rear balcony, they may not have a good vantage point for the ring exchange).
