Survival Guide for Planning a Gainesville Wedding During Football Season

Image
Yes, Gainesville, Florida certainly is a small town with a rather large Football problem, and make no mistake, that's how we love it! (Go Gators!!!) However, if necessity or choice dictates that you plan your wedding to be during this 4 month long city holiday, you'll need some pointers to help you survive with all your wedding awesomeness in tact. image by Russell Martin Photography First: Check the Football Schedule , then Weigh the Pro's and Con's of picking a Home Game for your wedding date Pro's: Many alumni who may also be getting married, often prefer to be in the heart of the Swamp for home games, so you'll have an easier time booking vendors, getting the venue you want (as long as it's not on campus) and the roads will be completely clear during game time.

"Thanks for 'Popping' By!" via Brit+Co I just love these! So affordable and adorable! You could up-cycle baby food jars or get mini mason jars.

"It's BEAN so special having you join us!" via My Wedding These are so colorful and fun! Get them in Bride and Groom flavors or a mix of deliciousness. You could even do a mini jellybean bar with jars of all different flavors in your color scheme using pre-printed bags with the pun on them. "We go together like Salt & Pepper" via Something Turquoise Who doesn't need a little salt & pepper to spice things up? These little mason jars sh...
