Getting started on your wedding can be a huge and daunting task. Here are 5 steps to start with when planning your wedding!
Set your Budget
Your budget is the most fundamental part of planning a wedding, it is the number that sets what you will be able to do on your big day. A wedding planner is a key to aiding in the creation of this number, with their experience they will be able to tell you what is attainable with your budget.
Pick your theme and Colours
Before you can do too much you need to know what sort of wedding you want to have. If you’re in love with the colour green make sure you incorporate it. If modern chic is your thing do a little pinning and research and pick a couple of ideas that you just love. You’ll want to know the style of wedding you want to have before you tackle the next step; your venue.
Set the date
When setting the date do it so that it works for both you and your fiance, but also so that the most amount of individuals will be able to come celebrate with you. Don’t get too set on one certain date. If you want a certain venue chances are someone else wants it too, so be open to a few different dates. It’s better to have your dream location then to get stuck on a date.
Book the Venue & Caterer
Once you have established a theme with your wedding planner then decide upon a venue that will compliment that theme. Have your wedding planner with you; they will be able to negotiate with both the venue and caterer so you get the ideal experience.
Set your guest list and choose your bridal party
Choosing who you want to be there with you on your special day is a hard choice. Start off by sitting down with your fiance and creating a list of people that you both want at your wedding. This includes family, friends, relatives, and even co-workers. Your bridal party on the other hands is a more exclusive list. When deciding on your bridal party think about who your closest and longest friends have been.
Of course after this there are so many things to tackle but getting started with the large organizational steps of your wedding will build the rest on a great foundation.
Happy Planning!
