Have you just been proposed to? Very nice, but now what? Now you have to start organizing your wedding! It is one of the nicest things there is, working together towards the day of your life. Brainstorm about your wedding together. But of course there is something to consider. What should you keep in mind when organizing a wedding? Read on for the tips.
1. Pick a date for your wedding
One of the first things you should do when planning your wedding is set a date. Very handy! Put on your man-to-be on his jacket and keep your diaries next to each other. Or do you want to get married on the day you officially started dating? Or do you have a lucky number? In any case, set a date on time, because then you have the best chance that your friends and family can go on that day.
2. Keep your wedding budget in mind
How much should the wedding cost? You decide together what you are going to spend, but it is useful that you determine a budget in advance. This way no ambiguities can arise. Keep in mind that you will also buy your dream dress at Koonings from that budget. So you will have to stick to it… One tip:open a separate account for your wedding! This way you can easily keep track of what goes out and what comes in. The budget also depends somewhat on the style of your wedding. If you like a farmhouse wedding with a barbecue, it will be more affordable than a classic wedding in a beautiful building with a five-course dinner. So consider together what style you want to get married in.
3. Create a guest list
Don't forget to make a guest list. How many guests can you accommodate at your wedding and party location? Keep that in mind. And keep your budget in mind too, because the more people you invite, the more expensive your wedding will be.
4. Create invitations for your wedding
Have you set a date? Then make fun invitations for your family, friends and girlfriends. First send as soon as possible with a save the date, because then they can write the date in their agenda. How nice is it if everyone can come to your wedding? Usually the real wedding card follows later.
5. Ask for help!
On your wedding day you want to enjoy yourself and prefer not to worry about all the organization around it. Then leave that to other people! There are masters of ceremonies for that. A master of ceremonies helps you plan your wedding and is the point of contact for all guests. If people would like to make speeches or if they have questions about the wedding gift, they can contact the master of ceremonies. On the day itself, the master of ceremonies also monitors whether everything is going well and will also be the point of contact for all companies that you have engaged.
So first set a date and then you can finally focus on shopping for your bridal fashion. Determine your budget and send the invitations on time. Also engage a master of ceremonies, so you can enjoy this most beautiful day of your life!
