I have to say.. I disagree with getting a wedding planner. Unless you don't have a budget. In my opinion, the best way to get some ideas on where to start is the internet, and by far the best place is all of your girlfriends who have been their and done it already! I have found they offer alot of good ideas...ones I NEVER would have thought of. Not to knock wedding planners and all, but you are just needing to plan a reception since you have already had the ceremony, and it would seem like it would cost more to hire one, then it would to get the info on your own...but like i said.. its all personal pref. and if you have a budget. $$$$$$$$$$$$$
Good luck to ya!
