At first, you think it might be simple. You choose a dress, find a venue, invite the guests, and wham! You have a wedding. However, there is always so much more to think about, and often this can lead to brides feeling all of the stress.
No more! If you are starting to feel the jitters of wedding planning then rest assured and focus on these areas first, the rest will fall into place.
Wedding Planning: Details to Focus On
The dress
What’s you wear is a pivotal part of your wedding. Whether you want a fancy princess dress or something simple and elegant, what you wear is something you may want to tick off your list first and foremost. Once it is sorted, you can start to think about the other details.
Go shopping as soon as you can, and try on different styles. You may think one style might suit you, but you may be surprised by how another one looks or fits your body shape. Being open-minded is a great way to approach this. The chances are when you find the right dress, you will know.
The venue
You have a dress, but you need a location to get married in, so making the decision on the venue is something you will do early on in the planning process. Think about the style of wedding you want and also the size of the guest list. View as many as you can. You may also want to take into consideration what type of ceremony you want. Whether you will have it in a church and then need a venue close by for after, or if you want a venue that can handle the whole thing.
Capturing the day
You want a memory of your day, that is for sure. So booking in the photographer or maybe someone to video it as well, should be high on your list of things to do. The pictures will be what you look back on, so choosing the right wedding photographer and taking into account their style of pictures will be important to you. Good photographers get booked up way in advance, so tick this off your list early.
The invites
Finally, once you have settled on a date, you will want to ensure that people will be there. So getting the wedding invitations out as soon as possible will take a load off your mind. The earlier you do this, the more time you have to confirm attendance and also tackle that dreaded seating plan. There is nothing that can take away that stress, Having more time can help.
Remember, the wedding is about you and your partner, nobody else. So above all else, do what the two of you want to do.
