Wedding planning is complicated regardless of whose wedding you’re helping to plan. Even if you’re helping a friend rather than working on your own wedding, you may find the process quite stressful. This article details tips and tricks to help you pull off the big day without a hitch.
When you decide who you want to give the speeches during the reception, ask them to read them to you so you know they are appropriate. There will be many different generations at the wedding, so sometimes a joke between young people is not received well by elders.
Before your wedding day be sure to practice walking down the aisle multiple times. Try to practice at the wedding site so you can test your chosen shoes on the flooring at the site. Your overall flow will be far smoother for your big day.
Don’t go overboard on decorating tables with flowers. Often, flowers interfere with guests being able to converse across the table. Plus, some guests may be allergic to flowers. Instead, you could place candles (non-scented) on the table tops to add a romantic feel to the reception.
Use the property of a friend or a member of the family for your wedding. You might know someone with farm or large piece of real estate, which will alleviate one major cost for the wedding. Offer to pay people to come into the place ahead of time to do some cleaning and then after the event, and that will be the only costs.
You could ask from any friend or family member that is capable of carrying your gear. They can help to gather up the family for group shots as well.
As you can see, planning your wedding doesn’t have to completely stress you out. Planning your wedding should be as enjoyable as your wedding day.
