5 tips for planning a successful wedding
Did you recently get engaged ? Are you planning your wedding ? If so , follow these five tips to ensure your big day is a success .
1Arrange accommodations If your reception is taking place in the countryside or you have guests attending from out of town , consider making arrangements with nearby hotels . This way you can ensure people attending your wedding will have somewhere to stay .
2Be prepared for any weather It ’ s important to be prepared for any weather on your wedding day , especially if your ceremony or reception will take place outdoors . You should think about what to do if it rains , how to keep your guests warm in the evening and if there ’ s a need to ward off bugs .
3Set and keep a budget Wedding costs can escalate quickly , so it ’ s essential to keep an eye on your budget . Consider placing all your important documents and bills in a binder and only using one credit card to pay for your wedding expenses .
4Determine if kids will be involved
Decide if you want to invite little ones to your wedding . If children are welcome , specify whether they must be under parental supervision or if childcare will be provided .
5Keep a list of contacts You must co-ordinate many different people and services on your big day , including the caterer and DJ . Therefore , it ’ s a good idea to keep all important phone numbers on hand leading up to and during the wedding .
If you want to make sure you don ’ t forget anything on your big day , consider working with an experienced wedding planner . n
