Tip of the Day: Welcome guests to your wedding with a signature drink that matches your color palette. Fun wintry cocktails can include hot spiked cider or a red martini with a candy cane in it. The glass you choose can also help convey your theme. For example, a bright blue cocktail in a sugar-rimmed glass would be perfect for a winter wonderland-inspired reception.

Tip of the Day: Book your hair and makeup trials on the same day about two to three months before the wedding, which will give you enough time to make adjustments.

Tip of the Day: Instead of saving the top cake tier for your first anniversary, pre-cut it into 12 slices and freeze them. "Remove one slice each month on the date of your wedding. That way, you can celebrate all year long!" says Lori Maslowski, the director of catering at The Rittenhouse in Philadelphia.
