The only essential things at a wedding are the bride, her groom, an officiant and an abundance of love. The other typical features of modern weddings, while nice to have, are little more than added frills that can end up causing anxiety and irritation. Regardless of how simple or extravagant your wedding, remember to enjoy it.
Understand that all who are supporting you and helping with your wedding are doing it out of love, as you should show them respect and appreciate what they are doing for you. Do not become a “bridezilla”, as this can alienate a lot of people and put a damper on the days leading up to your wedding.
A week before your wedding hits, make sure that you try on your dress again so that you can make any last minute adjustments. If you were to put on extra weight or lose weight in the month leading up to your wedding, you will need to have this taken care of.
Never forget that your wedding is YOUR day, so YOU need to choose the items you want for it. Decorations, cake, food, dress, shoes, it’s all up to you. Don’t let your friends or family get bossy and try to turn it into their dream wedding or you’ll regret that mistake for the rest of your life.
Get your nails done when you get your hair done for your wedding to give you the overall pampering that you deserve on your big day. It isn’t very expensive, but the foot bath and hand massage will help calm your nerves and leave you looking beautiful and feeling great!
When trying to find a color palette for your wedding, check out home décor books. They will have great color combinations for you to choose from. Choose the colors that catch your eye and carry those colors around with you when making purchases for your wedding. This will help you match the colors.
Skip having guests throw confetti at your wedding as it makes a mess and isn’t good for the environment, nor will you like picking it out of your hair. Instead, give your guests a noisemaker with the date of your wedding and your names on it to take home as an inexpensive keepsake.
Choose your reception venue with the guests in mind. If your family is mostly elderly then you aren’t likely to choose a location with a lot of stairs, or a big dance floor. If you have anyone in your family who is handicapped then you should ensure that the venue knows they’re coming and will make everything accessible to them.
A wedding only needs to have a few things to be perfect. Many things available for weddings are optional or extra upgrades. While some of these things are definitely nice and worth having, they can also introduce stress, and distract you from the fact that a wedding is supposed to be a joyous occasion. If you take the concepts in this piece to heart, it is possible to create a wedding everyone loves.
