When it comes to your wedding plans, covering all the possibilities available may seem like a daunting task. In fact, listing all the different possibilities could not be done in an article which would include the size, scope, budget, location, bride and groom choices, themes and all the other aspects that fall under what weddings can be.
However, there are basic ways to break down the different parts of the wedding so that you can plan for each one of them.
– Size: How many guests do you want to have at your wedding
– Style: Classic, elegant, simple, and more
– Location: In a church, outdoors, or other venue
– Budget: Weddings can cost from a couple of hundred to tens of thousands dollars and more
In addition, there are the colors, themes, music and other aspects that reflect the personality and style of the happy couple.
It is important to remember that the wedding is not just a single-day event, but one that really starts when the invitations are set out, the bridal shower, dinner or reception and more that happens over the course of several weeks. So, the better that you plan the wedding as a whole, the more successful it will be. You may do it all yourselves or hire a wedding planner, but in either case you will need to ensure that everything is carried out properly.
Important Aspects of the Wedding
Of the many aspects that your wedding will encompass, here are the most important areas that you’ll need to cover so that everything goes as well as possible.
Time: You’ll need time to plan the wedding which means starting right after the engagement is made. You need to set aside time to do the following;
– Brainstorm
– Discuss all the possibilities
– Look over the potential issues
– Have fun planning with less stress
Time is arguably the most crucial element as if you use the time wisely to plan and prepare, you will run into fewer issues and be able to better handle unexpected situations.
Prioritize
You will need to prioritize your wedding and break it down into different categories that include absolutely essential, very important, somewhat important and least important. This way, you can go down the list in the right order to ensure that what must be done is taken care of properly.
The absolute essentials of the wedding are the date, number of guests, budget, location, wedding vendor or provider, priest or preacher, and time of day. If you can take care of this list, then your wedding will avoid having major issues which might stop the whole thing.
Other aspects such as the florist, photographer, cake, attire, menu and beverages, invitations, wedding videographer and musicians or music are also important, but can be handled after you take care of the essentials. Finally, everything else that includes, but is not limited to the gifts for those who assist in your wedding, selection of music, favors, centerpieces, readings and so forth can be given attention after the important items are properly handled.
By prioritizing your wedding properly, you can enjoy far fewer mishaps and really enjoy the day for what it is meant to be.
