We write a lot about what can help with the best photos from your wedding, what are the best tips, and things that cannot go without. Today, let’s take things from a different direction. This article is going to discuss the things that you really should steer clear of when it comes to your wedding.
It is advisable that if you do a rehearsal dinner to not do it the night before. You should be relaxing and doing what you love on your last night with your childhood surname. The main reason for this warning is that the chances of your entire wedding party, and more importantly, you, being hung over on your big day increase dramatically.
With the pressure of this having to be ‘the best day of your life’, brides can easily become stressed when things do not go exactly as planned. One of the most important parts of your day are the people that you are sharing it with. Don’t let family drama or any kind of emotional issue become part of your day, or have a connection to it. Remember that your wedding is a celebration, not a performance – don’t lose sight of what the whole point is. Getting lost in feuds or arguments is only a waste of time. This is probably the most important thing to avoid because it will be emotionally draining.
You do not need to enforce any particular rules about not seeing your fiancé the night before. It may be your quick chance to have some peace together before everything starts. Grabbing a dinner or a coffee before you both take the plunge can be comforting and important. After all, you are doing this together!
Ladies, do not attempt to do it all by yourself. As super woman as you may be, it’s not worth putting yourself through the stress without having support. Make use of the resources around you and let people help you with what needs to get done. Many hands make light work. Avoid trying to be good at everything and ending with not being good at anything.
It’s important also to acknowledge the needs of the guests. Don’t plan a wedding that cannot be practically managed. If your wedding is far, provide accommodation suggestions and arrangements. Ensure that there is ample seating and that your ideas fit in with the designs of the venue and the furniture.
The last point to avoid is when your expectations and your resources do not meet. Don’t take your budget lightly, and plan things with the resources that are available to you. This way, you can avoid stress as well as disappointment. Having a smaller or simpler wedding will be far better than starting a marriage in debt because of one day. Make your wedding day something that makes you feel happy and light, not loaded and dedicated to debt.
