Seven Wedding Tips

How to make the best day of your life even better.

Your wedding should be one of the happiest days of your life, so take some and consider all the options available. After spending a summer setting up and taking down what feels like hundreds of weddings, I have found out what works, what doesn’t, and what you and your guests will most enjoy.

1. Delegate- There is no shame in asking for help. Don’t try to do everything yourself, it will just lead to much unneeded stress on your big day.
2. Less is more- When planning the decorations for your wedding, don’t over do it. Your guests should be focused on you and your spouse, not what is around them.
3. Think outside the box- Personalize your wedding by doing something non-traditional. Instead of a wedding cake, try a dessert that will have your guests telling their friends how your wedding was unique.
4. Hire the right DJ- Your DJ will really set the mood of your reception. Take the time to really get to know the personalities of your potential DJ’s so your reception will be all that you hoped for.
5. Limit after wedding pictures- Your guests will be waiting to greet you and your spouse after the ceremony, so don’t make them wait any longer than they have to.
6. Throw out the guest book- Instead of having your guests sign a book, have them sign something that you will actually look at more than once in your life, like a picture frame or a keep sake box with all of your other wedding memorabilia.
7. Write your own vows- This will make the most traditional part of your wedding unique and leave your guests feeling the love between you and your spouse.
