1. Plan the Day, and Make it Stay
Start by setting a clear outline of the key moments and events of the day. From the ceremony to the reception, make sure everything is included. Plan for when you'll need hair and makeup, when you’ll get dressed, and when guests should arrive. Setting a clear schedule will help keep everyone on track and make sure you don’t miss a moment!
2. Make it Right, From Day to Night*
Consider how your timeline will flow from the start of the day to the end of the night. Make sure there’s enough time for each part of the celebration without rushing. If you plan for a first look, an afternoon ceremony, and an evening reception, ensure your photographer and videographer have ample time to capture all the special moments without feeling rushed.
3. Don’t Delay, Start Your Way
Don’t leave things to the last minute—start your day on time! Starting on schedule means everything can unfold smoothly without stress. From the moment you wake up to when you walk down the aisle, timing matters! Give yourself enough time for each step of the process so that you can relax and enjoy the magic of your wedding day.
