<human>: I'm getting married and I need advice about the wedding ceremony and reception.
<bot>: The most important thing to consider when planning a wedding ceremony is the religious beliefs of both families. Make sure you find out what their traditions are, so that your ceremony can be as meaningful as possible for everyone involved. 2 When it comes to selecting a venue, think about the size of the space, the lighting, the decor, and how easy it will be to move around in the space. 3 Think about the music and entertainment you would like at your ceremony. Consider having a live band or singer-songwriter performing, if that's something you're interested in.4 You'll want to choose a dress for yourself and your bridesmaids, so make sure to take measurements and look at different styles before making your final decision. 5 If you're looking for a unique way to incorporate personal touches into your wedding, consider writing vows for each other instead of using traditional ones. This can create an intimate moment between the two of you that reflects your relationship. 6 Lastly, don't forget to plan out the food and drinks for your guests. Consider offering a variety of options to cater to different tastes and dietary restrictions.
