Planning a wedding is probably the scariest mountain to climb in a newbie life of the bride-to-be. That is not to say that the next few years or months are all going to be an uphill struggle, but the reality is that wedding planning is hard work. This article seeks to provide you with some tangible inspiration on how you can achieve perfect wedding planning!
Rule number one - get the big jobs done first. So many wedding venues get booked up as much as 3 years in advance so to ensure you get your desired location and venue, you do need to book early. Your choice of venue, location and time of year will then help you decide on a wedding theme. Once this is all booked and a deposit paid, you can then relax a little because the most important job is done. Phew!
Secondly, you need to give some thought to your wedding stationery and your guest list. Depending on how you wish to invite your guests, you may choose to send out 'Save the Date' cards in addition to invitations so that your guests keep your special day free. This is especially important if you are planning to get married during the summer when many families book holidays some years in advance.
The third tip is all about planning your wedding and enjoying yourself at the same time! One must appreciate that organising a wedding is hard work and needs to be carefully prepared. Buy yourself a book or folder - this will become your bible of all wedding things for the next year or so. Keep all your ideas, magazine cuttings, deadlines, phone numbers and wedding invitation replies in this, your wedding planning folder. Decide which items are immediate [e.g. things that need to be prepared in advance, such as ordering the wedding invitations or booking the church]. Then, draw up a 12-month schedule and insert each job into a month. Of course, the more immediate actions will need to be addressed in the first few months, whereas ordering wedding favours may wait until later on. Some people find organising such a big event too difficult and if this sounds like you, why don't you ask for a bit of help? There are loads of reasonably priced wedding planners out there who can help you with aspects of your wedding or arrange the complete day for you. You need to weigh up the cost between spending out on a planner and how much you can physically cope with by yourself. By working together and sharing responsibilities, organizing a wedding can be enjoyable as well as a great family bonding exercise.
Well, there it is, you have made a good start to planning your wedding. And, if you have managed to enjoy yourself along the way, that's even better! Now you can chill out for a bit, whilst you bask in the glory of perfect wedding planning.
