With wedding season in full bloom, now is an excellent time to buckle down and check off all the items on your to-do list. Taking time to handle the planning of your ceremony and wedding reception in advance can ensure a stress-free wedding day that is everything you and your partner dreamed of. Below are some of the top wedding and logistic tips you can use in your planning process.

4 Helpful Tips to Help You Plan the Perfect Wedding

1. Remove the Pressure to Find the Perfect Dress.

Brides often feel stress about gown shopping. With so many dresses out there, they can feel overwhelmed by the many styles, lengths, fabrics, and fits in a bridal shop. One of the best ways to figure out what trends you like before visiting a bridal shop is to try on party dresses at your local department store. This will give you the opportunity to experiment with new styles you may not have thought of. Narrowing down what you’re looking for sets you up for success when it comes time to say ‘yes’ to the dress.

2. Don’t Wait Until the Big Day to Wear Your Shoes.

Nothing is worse than painful heels at an event, especially when that event is your own wedding. Avoid spending the whole night with painful blisters and sore feet by testing out your heels several times before the wedding reception. Whether you slip them on for a nice dinner or just around your home on the weekends, breaking your wedding shoes in will go a long way in improving your comfort on the big day.

In addition to the usual household goods, brides can take advantage of their wedding registry by asking for interior decorations to create your dream home. Go room by room and consider what style and color palette you’re going for, then build your registry list from there. Your guests will appreciate the opportunity to purchase something more fun than a knife set while helping you and your partner decorate your shared space.

4. Don’t Underestimate Your Budget.

Lastly, one of the most important wedding planning tips is to budget for everything, including the honeymoon, before you begin making decisions. Coming to terms with your budget early on can help ensure you and your partner's expectations are realistic and no one is let down. It will also help you identify what is most important and where you need to cut corners.
