Getting married can be one of the most memorable and exciting moments of your life, and as us girls, it’s the wedding we’re all excited about. Now that you’ve met the man of your dreams and you both plan on having a future together, it’s time to plan the wedding – the official celebration of your love and commitment.
Planning a wedding can be exciting, but there are also a lot of difficult tasks to handle and after all, you want the perfect wedding. But while you do that, it’s important to remember to not let your inner bridezilla take control of the situation, and just remember that it’s all about your celebration of love.
Plan the Ceremony
Do you want a traditional ceremony? Or do you want something more unique that makes it even more memorable? Knowing exactly what you want in a ceremony can help you branch out into the wedding details.
Plan the Budget
A budget can determine just how much you need to plan the perfect wedding. No matter who small or large your budget can be, just remember there should be services that can fit within your range and suit your needs. If your current budget doesn’t really come up to what you want, you can consider asking for some financial advice too.
Scout Your Location
When it comes to having the perfect wedding, the location plays an important role. If you were to plan a beach wedding, would you rather do it by a tropical beach, or a murky one with unpredictable weather? So, take the time to scout for the right location because it’s not only you that yearns for the comfort, but your guests do too.
Plan Your Guest List
Your guest list can be fun but it can also be a tedious task. Once you’ve planned your budget, you’ll have an idea of how many people you can fit in your ceremony. The important thing is to start with the people that’s closest to you – family members, best man, bridesmaids, etc. Start a list with the most important people, and then spend time with your partner on planning who you want to invite, seating arrangements and grouping.
Find Your Perfect Dress
Dress-fittings is possibly one of the most fun and exciting parts of the wedding preparation process. Know your measurements right and be sure about to know what looks on your body. But do try on as many dresses as you want until you find the perfect one. Get your friends to share their input.
Order the Stationary
Make your special day an official occasion by ordering and sending out your wedding invitations. Send them out in advance, but before you do that, start investigating on designs and colours so they do look good. If you’ve got a theme for your wedding, it’ll be even better if your cards fit the theme too.
Buck and Hen’s Nights
A buck and hen’s night does not have to be a raunchy one, but you can always have fun and spend the night with all your friends to have lots of fun. If you don’t want something wild, have a dinner party with your girlfriends to enjoy your last day as a singleton. Just don’t do something you’d regret!
Run Through the Finishing Touches
Every wedding is unique to the individual so it can be quite difficult to point out the final touches you want. The most common things to consider are the speeches, readings, rehearsals, seating plans, order of service, accommodation, thank you cards, and more.
