Imagine that you are walking barefoot on soft grass that is cool to the touch. A gentle breeze is blowing off what seems to be a body of water that never ends and stretches to the horizon. You can hear friends laughing as they enjoy beverages and stories around a bonfire on the white, sandy beach. You are drawn to a Tiki bar where a bartender is serving out bubbly beverages and entertaining cocktails by the dazzling lights, music, and dancing. You halt. You savor this time. You grin as you make your way to the dance floor and remember that today is your wedding day. No of the day or season, Shangri-La is full with beauty, but we like to believe that our sunsets are particularly stunning.

The sun gently sets, revealing a rainbow of orange, red, and pink hues that are reflected in the lake. Shangri-La changes into a place that belongs in a fairy tale.  

Once you find your wedding venue, it is easier to imagine your dream wedding dress. Imagine entering the venue arm-in-arm with all your guests’ eyes upon you. Your first dance awaits you. What is your wedding gown style, A-line, boho, ballgown, mermaid, or other silhouettes?

With your venue date set, a few quick yet fun decisions are needed to coordinate the wedding date. Be sure to schedule your ceremony location soon, too. Looking for alternative wedding ceremony locations? Perhaps, a local park or beach is the spot to exchange your vows and capture memories. The journey ahead is bound to fill with excitement and joy. Wedding photographers can book a year in advance of your wedding date, so be sure to hire a wedding photographer in short order that meets your vision and personality. And, of course, let’s remember your out-of-town wedding guests. Let them know that you researched their accommodation options, whether a hotel or a private rental house, as the guests, will appreciate this.

Finally, an easy and momentous step of your wedding planning – get your official wedding license.
