Top Things to Remember when Planning Your Wedding Day |
Posted: September 6, 2014 |
There’s no doubt that planning your very own wedding has its share of fun and excitement. It is, after all, a day you will remember for the rest of your life which you can look back on with the fondest memories. But there’s another side to wedding planning as well: the side where you begin to panic and are sure that you’ve forgotten something important. However, there’s no reason to panic just yet. With the right preparations, your wedding day can go as smoothly as it should. So here are a few top things to remember once you begin planning for your wedding: Give yourself time to let the engagement sink in There’s no reason for you to start planning your wedding right away. Most brides- and grooms-to-be have the mistaken idea that they have to start preparing for their wedding immediately after their engagement. This doesn’t have to be the case. Give yourself a few weeks to let the idea settle in, and try not to make any major decisions during this time. The reason for this is that you are still too excited and may end up making decisions you may regret later on. Remember the basics All too often, it’s too easy to become carried away with the wedding planning and to love everything you see. The first thing you should do is decide what type of wedding you want. Determine your wedding’s theme, style, or mood, whether you would want it to be modern and contemporary, classic and traditional, or even a bit quirky. It’s important to know what you really want from the beginning so that even when you see something you like, you do not have to be swayed and can ‘stick with’ what you planned from the start. Your wedding venue is vital So much depends on your wedding venue - even the date of your wedding! If you have a venue in mind, you have to make sure right away whether it is available on your chosen date. The venue‘s location and accessibility is important as well, and whether or not it has all that you need. So many details depend on the venue, such as whether you should hire a caterer, what other vendors you need, what type of entertainment you will have, and so on. So it’s crucial to choose your wedding venue at the beginning. The good news is that there are dozens upon dozens of venues in the UK. You can opt for a countryside wedding in Oxfordshire, for instance, in a charming venue such as Heythrop Park, with its own extensive grounds and luxurious accommodations (you can find out more at www.heythroppark.co.uk. But what’s important is to choose the venue that you are comfortable with whilst not neglecting the practical aspects. Take care of yourself In the midst of planning for your wedding, it’s all too easy to begin neglecting yourself. Remember: it’s your special day. What you can do is mark off some time for yourself – pamper yourself, take a nice bath, get a massage, or just relax in front of the telly. Do something to rejuvenate your spirits once in a while, especially when the wedding preparations begin to get more hectic. With everything going on and all the arrangements that have to be done, it is important to remember these aspects so that you do not lose sight of your goal – to have most perfect wedding ever.
