How To Plan Your Own Wedding

Every bride wants their day to go off without a hitch and as beautiful as their every dream about it! Like most brides I had a hard time making sure everything was taken care of so that before hand I wouldn't loose a lot of sleep wondering if I had remembered to buy something or if the cake topper came in.

In planning a wedding, I feel it is necessary to pick ideal date(s). With this idea, if there is a conflict with a hall or caterer, you will still be pleased with your date. I find that booking your hall and caterer first seem to help everything else fall into place. Once your hall and caterer have been chosen and booked, making arrangements with a Disc Jockey, or DJ, and finding a florist is the next step and by calling around for the photographer and asking other people of their experiences, you will be sure to find a photographer that you will be satisfied with.

By trying to keep in mind all of the booking dates as well as bridal accessories to go along with the dress, the days I needed to make payments, making sure we had the hall, caterers, photographers, DJ, flowers, it all just seemed too overwhelming.

It is with all of these things in mind, I would like to share with every future bride out there, in order to help their time go easier.

First thing is to get a notebook and write everything down and dates. This way you know what you have taken care of and what is still needed to get done. This helped to evade that dreaded experience of not being prepared.

The next thing is I got a container to keep track of all of the odds and ends of the wedding that I didn't want to hunt down the day of the wedding. By buying a container, I was able to keep my shoes, purse, wedding cake topper, garter, jewelry, and ring bearer pillow, guest book, receiving line items (bubbles) all together.

The planning process shouldn't get to you; after all, this is your day and should be the way you want it. I am sure by doing this you will also be able to keep track of things and making sure that the little things are being taken care of, ensuring that the plans were good on the hall and DJ, the place making the wedding cake, the caterer and menu. It is these simple steps that can help you to keep on top of things as I went about the planning process.
