Prioritise – Start out with what is really important for your wedding day. For some that may be the location or perhaps the dress or having every member of your family present. Keep this in mind at all times so that you don’t lose sight of what it is you’re planning and get caught up doing something you really don’t need or want to do.
Budget – Once you’ve set your priorities then set your budget. Doing it the other way round will easily mean you will blow the budget. Knowing what your priorities are first means you will also know the things that aren’t important and where you can save on spending your precious dollars.
Relax – You’re getting married! Once the day arrives, just enjoy it. If something changes or the flowers are a little late Don’t Worry About It - Your guests will wait for you! If all the planning is done well then you don’t need to think about anything but having a great time.
Above all, each of the above tips can be made easier by having a dedicated wedding coordinator at your venue to assist at all stages of your wedding.
