Time to Plan for the Outdoor Event of your life
Chances are, you are feeling a bit overwhelmed with so many decisions to make, aka Wedding planning. Take a deep breath…and take it from a recent MOB, who was in your shoes just a few years ago. One thing is certain, Google and Pinterest are at your fingertips every time you have a thought, idea, or question thrown at you. By all means… lean on those who have recently been through this process.
Best Advise for Wedding Planning
My best wedding planning advice is to schedule time every day (even if it is just five minutes on Pinterest) to plan for that “Best Day Ever.” If planning is not your thing, hire a wedding planner and/or event coordinator. Some venues offer this service as an add-on feature. Whichever option you choose, enjoy the process and take it one day at a time.
Embrace the Positives to Wedding Planning
Lets face it, there will be some not so comfortable decisions during the planning process, such as; tracking finances, cutting the guest list, and meeting the needs of all family involved.
Tips to Ensure your Big Day is memorable
- Start planning early. Do something everyday so nothing falls behind. Some things need to be decided early. The guest list will influence several decisions.
- Guest list. Communicate with both families what you want or expect those numbers to be. This is a big factor that directly impacts most decisions such as, venue (capacity), catering and rentals, to name a few. Costs per head will likely be one of your biggest expenses, so be selective with the guest list.
- Booking an event venue can affect your proposed wedding date. Pick a venue that can represent your style and visions for your special day.
Food and Beverage. The food you serve at the reception, aside from the gorgeous bride, is one aspect people will be talking about after the event is over. They always remember the food! - It is the grooms special day too and it’s not likely he has dreamed of this day since he was young. Even the most easy-going guy will have opinions, most likely concerning the food. By all means, get his ideas for the grooms cake – it is named after him. Involve him in the details you know he will enjoy. An involved groom will make for an involved spouse.
