Your wedding is one of the most important days of your life, and you want to make sure that everything goes perfectly. This means planning every detail down to the last minute. But where do you start? The best place to begin is with a wedding-planning checklist. This blog post will provide you with a comprehensive list of everything you need to do in order to plan the perfect wedding.

1: Decide on a budget: 

This is probably the most important step in wedding planning. You need to decide how much you are willing to spend on your wedding before you start making any decisions. This will help you stay within your budget and avoid overspending.

2: Choose a date: 

Once you have decided on a budget, you can start looking at dates. You need to choose a date that is convenient for you and your guests. Keep in mind that the date of your wedding may affect the cost of your wedding.

3: Venue: 

The next step is to choose a venue for your wedding. You need to decide if you want a church ceremony or a civil ceremony. You also need to book the venue in advance.

Now that you have an idea of what needs to be done, you can start planning your dream wedding! Just remember to take your time and enjoy the process. After all, this is one of the most important days of your life! Thanks for reading! I hope this blog post was helpful. If you have any questions, feel free to leave a comment below. Happy planning!

4: Dresses:

Another important decision is what you and your bridal party will wear. You need to decide on a style and colour scheme for your wedding. Once you have done this, you can start shopping for dresses. Find flower girl dresses for sale online!

5: Invitations:

Once you have chosen a date, venue and dresses, you can start sending out invitations. You will need to provide your guests with all the important information about your wedding. This includes the date, time, venue and dress code.

6: Wedding dress fittings:

You will need to have several fittings for your wedding dress. This is so that the dress can be made to fit you perfectly. You should also buy your accessories at this time, such as your veil, shoes and jewellery.

7: Photography:

One of the most important aspects of your wedding is photography. You need to choose a photographer that you trust to capture all the special moments on your big day. Make sure to discuss your ideas with them in advance and agree on a package.

8: Food and drink:

Another important aspect of your wedding is the food and drink. You need to choose a caterer that you trust to provide delicious food for your guests. You also need to decide on a menu and agree on a budget.

Planning a wedding can be a daunting task, but it is important to remember that it is one of the most important days of your life. By following this checklist, you can be sure that you have covered all the bases and are well on your way to planning the perfect wedding.

9: Entertainment:

Entertainment at a wedding is a big influence on how much your wedding guests enjoy the day itself. From magicians breaking the ice during canapes to a wedding DJ that’ll have them dancing the night away.

Every entertainment element you add to your wedding is important, so make sure you’re thinking carefully about who you have for the big day.

10: Venue Styling:

Make sure no space is overlooked with our FREE Wedding Decor Checklist. Print and use as a guide when planning and choosing your venue dressing!
