I think it is always a good idea to work with someone in the field before jumping in to anything.  So experience, creative flair, and a love for what you are doing along with genuine care for others is the receipe for sucess.

It is a huge job and there is a ton of money in the industry.  The average wedding now runs $20,000.  It also isn't all glamour and fun.  A degree in business administration would be a good place to start.  More important would be that you get internships, whether paid or not to learn about the business.  Spend a summer with a florist, a caterer, a rental company.  Get to know every aspect of the business...and make connections.  Your connesctions will make you or break you before your specific degree will.

The important thing is for you and your beloved to have a day the feels special to the both of you.  Depending on where you live, some states allow a lay person(someone who is not a minister or a justice of the peace) to get a special license for 1 day, and they can marry you.  So that wouldn't be too expensive(maybe the person you ask to do it would even pay for the license themselves).  You could also find a justice of the peace, or go to your local city or town hall and ask if they do wedding ceremonies.  You could keep your ceremony small, and just have immediate family.  That way you don't have to pay for a lot of flowers or decorations.  Then for the ceremony, it depends on how many people you want to invite.  My ceremony was in my church, and then our reception was at a small hotel.  We had less than 50 people, but our total cost was still over $5,000, which included my dress, alterations, flowers, food, hubbies tux, etc.  If either of you belong to a church, you should be able to get married in it for a small fee(if any).  Then you could just do a small ceremony afterwards.  Some people are doing just appetizers, or just desserts.  It's basically just an hour or so, lets everyone mingle, then there could be a toast and people can go on their way.  As far as invitations, you can buy nice paper at an office supply store and print them yourselves.  If you have a small reception with just apps or desserts, include that so people don't expect to be fed.  But it's all perfectly okay!!

there are actual schools for that sort of position. Also if there is anyway you could get in touch with a wedding planner you could try a sort pf apprenticeship. try looking for things on google.

Usually the only test that you need is a blood test.  But it really depends on the state that you live in.  I would suggest that you contact the county court in the city where you live.  The place that issues you the Wedding License should be able to tell you if you need to get a test done, and what test if any you need to get done.

You have three options:\n\n1. get your wedding planner/coordinator to do it\n2. some caterers often handle decorations of the wedding reception\n3. ask your friends, sibling/s to pitch in

You can get a degree in fashion design. I do not know much about it in the USA, but I know that Kingston University in the UK have a school of fashion. You learn about designing and you also take classes in making patterns and putting garments together. Big fashion lables and textile companies sponsor special projects. Twice a year you get to design a collection and organize a fashion show. You also get to learn either Italian or French so that you will have the language skills to work at the large fashion houses in Paris and Milan. After graduation, many students actually get jobs working as junior designers for the large fashion lables.

I dont think you have to, but I work for Toll Brothers a company that builds luxury homes and they only hire interior decorators to decorate the "model home" and they all must have a degree in interior design in order to be considered. So it would be worth it go ahead and pursue that degree

Quite a lot, unfortunately...\n\nTo design games for general release, you definitely need to be part of a large development/publishing house. To get in, you'll need skills in programming/engineering and/or design. And you'l need qualifications in these.\n\nSome institutions are now offering courses specifially targeted at training game designers, otherwise your best bet is to take software engineering or something similar, or 3d design etc etc.\n\nOr, if you're alreayd an ace at either of the two, make a demo program of some kind and send it in for companies to look at. Be careful - copyright everything and make it clear you are not submitting suggestions but seeking employment based on your skills and telents.\n\nStart by checking who developed and published your facuorite games- look them up on the net and see if their sites have a "jobs" or employment" section. If not, look for contact details and mark it "human resources" or something like.\n\nHope that helps!

Have a really good looking business card printed up and take to your local florist, banquet hall etc and ask if they'd display your card, say that you'll naturally reccomend their service. \n\nTake a stand at a wedding show:\n\nGather up every wedding magazine you can find and cut out all the dress, cake, flower examples that you can find and intersperse them with photos of weddings you have been to in albums for brides to go thru and choose from. \n(Naturally don't mention twiced married, even though the success of a wedding has nothing to do with the success of a marriage, some brides are superstious.)\n\nMake examples of table decorations, alter decorations etc. in different styles   \n\nGive both bride & grooms a form to fill in like what's important for your wedding so they can give you all the little details like "Dont sit Uncle James next to Aunt Trudy" or " Absolutely no Britney Spears music" The little attentions will encourage them to tell other people.  WORD OF MOUTH WORKS! \n\ngood luck

Congrats on yuor wedding... to be there.. \n\nYou can have fusion for the wedding. \nI am not sure what custom you are going to follow. \nIf you are going through the church type then you can do you christian style dress. \n\nDress has to be Red in colour....You can apply a bindi(red dot on yuor forehead) \n\nIn the evening for reception you can dress in the traditional way. It might be dificult for you to wear a saree if no one is ready to help. Else you can get a Chania Choli (red colour) with gold work on it. It will look nice as well. You can go for the mathcing jewellery with that  for the full set. \n\nAbout the food you can have 3-4 disshes which will be an add on for the people. I am sure the white americans will like the food too. \nSome Items like Papadums and samosas for starters\nItems like Paneer (cheese) Palak(spinach), or Navratan Korma. You can check this from the caterers or the Indian restarants as to what dish you like.. \nThis can be with the Indian breads (Rotis) \nIn sweets you can have Gulab Jamun or Kulfi (type of icecream made from boiling milk for long time)\n\nAnything more IM me..
