Your wedding is a day that you will never forget. It will be one of the most important days of your entire life. It is, therefore, important to meticulously plan every aspect of it. However, organising a wedding can be challenging mainly because there are many different variables that need to be thought about and planned for.
Some of the most important things include clothing; location; invitations; entertainment, and gifts. This article will expand on these things, explaining why they are as important as they are and how you can plan them effectively.
Clothing and Jewellery
Your first priority should be jewellery. Traditionally the bride and groom wear wedding rings which are a symbol of their unbreakable bond and commitment to one another. As you probably already know wedding jewellery can be extremely expensive. You can mitigate costs by shopping second-hand or by buying your partner’s ring on finance. The groom’s responsibility is to buy their fiancé’s engagement and wedding ring. The bride just buys the groom’s wedding band. Speak to your partner before buying a ring so that you can get one that they like.
The next thing that you need to think about is clothing: What are you and your fiancé going to wear? A lot of young people are choosing not to wear formal attire at their weddings these days. If you want to break conventions then why not have a casual wedding, where those in attendance can wear whatever they want?
Get the Perfect Look for your Hair
On your wedding day, there are many details to consider to ensure that everything runs smoothly. When it comes to your hair, it’s essential to plan ahead and not forget any crucial elements. One thing to consider is whether you want to use hair extensions to achieve your desired hairstyle. If so, it’s important to choose high-quality extensions that blend seamlessly with your natural hair and are installed by a professional. You’ll also want to ensure that your extensions are securely in place and won’t slip or become dislodged throughout the day. With proper planning and attention to detail, your hair extensions can help you achieve your dream wedding hairstyle and look stunning in all your photos.
Sending Invitations
Wedding invitations were traditionally sent out in the mail. Thanks to modern technology it is no longer necessary to do this, however. The easiest way to send invitations to your guests is by email or via SMS. The only time it is necessary to send people actual cards is if you are inviting people who do not use the internet, like older people. You may want to draft a few physical invitations just to hold onto as keepsakes of your wedding day though, even if you do not send them out to people.
Organising Entertainment
Your wedding’s entertainment is something that you need to put a lot of thought into. More often than not people hire DJs for their weddings. A live wedding band is a more expensive but equally popular choice. Do not worry about your guests’ musical interests, book artists that play genres that appeal to you. A lot of people get hung up on what other people think when they are planning their weddings. Your wedding day is your wedding day. While other people will share it with you, you need to ensure that everything is to your liking. The only people that matter on your special day is you and your fiancé.
Requests Gifts from Guests
It is typical in most parts of the world for couples getting married to ask their guests to bring them specific gifts, like refrigerators or other kitchen appliances. Usually, this is done so that the couple’s marital home can be furnished with all of the equipment they will need, ready for when they move in. One of the benefits of throwing a large wedding is that you can ask for more expensive gifts. When you have lots of people attending it’s much easier to request pricy items. If you are just having a small gathering of friends then asking for expensive gifts will seem inappropriate
Hiring A Caterer
One of the last things you need to consider when planning your wedding is catering. A lot of couples are turning to unconventional caterers like street food vendors. Street food catering can be much more affordable and will probably be appreciated more by your guests. That being said if you do want a traditional caterer then by all means hire one. It is your wedding after all. Just know that traditional caterers have a tendency to charge exorbitant sums of money for their services. Before hiring anybody for your wedding you need to conduct extensive online research, use comparison sites, and read reviews. A caterer’s reviews can tell you a lot about the quality of their food and their attitude to work.
Most people only get married once in their lives. Those who do not make the most out of their weddings tend to regret it forever. Taking the guidance given here in this post and thinking about these things will help you to ensure that your wedding is a day you will remember for the rest of your life for all of the right reasons.
