  1. Some of couples are having trouble in choosing songs for their wedding. For sure this list is very helpful for couples and wedding planner. Aside from choosing songs, theme, and motif for wedding, engaged couples tend to get confuse on which place they want to hold their wedding.

    I remember when John and I got married. My mom suggested to hold our wedding in Denver (wedding receptions here are absolutely impressive. Also our friends are here, so that is a good thing). Both of us agreed to my mom's suggestion and with the help of my sister and friends, we found a good wedding reception (Denver based) and we created a unique plan for my wedding.
