If you are the same kind of Christian bride that I was, then you want your wedding to be something truly special in the eyes of those attending it. You want your guests to remember your wedding for a long time to come - not because of the kind of cake you served, but because of the kind of people you are. Most importantly, you want them to actually experience the bond of love that exists between you and your future spouse.

How can you do this? How can you share your love and create that kind of atmosphere? Well, I have a few practical suggestions for you for before your wedding, the ceremony, and the reception that my husband and I actually did for our Christian wedding, and we feel were a success.

Before the wedding

When you attend most weddings, you may know a bit about either the bride or the groom, but chances are you do not know a lot about both of them and especially them as a couple. This is why I think it is important for your guests to get to know you as a twosome before your wedding. Your wedding will be more significant to your guests if they know more about you, how you fell in love, and all that good romantic stuff.

Before our wedding even happened, we created a website through Bwedd.com. We put the address at the bottom of our invitations and emphasized that our guests should take a look at it. On our site, we told our guests how excited we were to be seeing them soon and how much joy they were bringing to us by attending our wedding. We told the story of how we met and how Matt proposed. We wrote notes about our wedding party and thanked them for being a part of our wedding. We were even able to have a quiz about our relationship, wedding, and future plans, for our guests to take. Our website brought our distant relatives and friends of our parents into our relationship and they came to our wedding feeling like they really knew us.
