First I must appologize for my absence, there has been so much to research, that I have neglected to update the information here. I have many updates to cover, so lets get started!
#1: I was lucky to find a reception site that has an all inclusive package. My budget is easy to tally up because many of the small details are included in the price. The goal is to spend less than $10,000, hopefully closer to $7,000.
#2: My reception site's package includes a personalized music playlist from an IPOD. I was able to choose what songs I wanted from a list of 3,500 songs. My reception package also includes my flowers. I decided to go with a traditional flower, the rose, for my bouquet and the bouttoniers. The centerpeices are similar to the bouquet with small votive candles randomly placed throughout the tables.
#3: When getting married, the most important details are the legal details, even though they may not be the most fun. Remember you must get a marriage license. The laws differ from state to state, but in Idaho it is rather simple. It costs $28 and both the bride and groom must be present with valid drivers licenses. There is no wait time, so it can be purchased on the day of the ceremony, although I would recomend getting it before your big day. Other states may require a blood test, or may require the purchase of the license a month ahead of time.
Also remember to schedule your officiant. If you have religious ties, then the presiding church leader can perform the ceremony. I have chosen to use a judge from the local courthouse. I don't know anyone personally that could perform the ceremony, so it was rather simple for me to just pick someone.
** After your big day, don't forget to officially fill out the proper change of name documents! **
