- Write notes to your bridal party. This is a great way to share just how happy you are that they chose to stand beside you on this special day.
- Know what time sunset is (depending on the time of year and location). If you want to try to get some golden hour photos you will need to dip out of the reception right before sunset.
- Put your RSVP on the wedding website. This can save you a ton of money and stationery and it also makes it super easy to make an excel spreadsheet of your guest list. (I ended up using www.Zola.com)
- Have something for people to do that don’t like dancing. This gives those people who may not love dancing, a chance to still have a lot of fun at your wedding.
- You don’t have to have a traditional wedding meal. There are so many options for food for your wedding now-a-days. You could do appetizers, a food truck, a taco bar, pizza bar, there are tons of fun stuff you can do for food so don’t feel limited!
- Create a wedding day timeline. This helps to ensure everything runs smoothly and everyone knows where they need to be at all times.
- Designate someone to handle gifts after the ceremony. This will allow you to enjoy your day without worrying about where the gifts are going.
- Consider a first look. This can help ease pre-ceremony nerves and also allows you to capture some beautiful moments before the festivities begin.
- Plan a fun send-off. Whether it’s sparklers, bubbles, or confetti, a fun send-off can be a memorable way to end the night.
- Communicate with your vendors. Maintaining clear communication with all vendors ensures everyone is on the same page regarding expectations and timelines.
