Wedding planning tools and recommendations for an awesome wedding! While we would love the weather to be all sunshine and rainbows, we must remember that April is known for its showers. (They bring the May flowers.) Keep this in mind, watch the forecast, and if showers are in store, come up with a creative display for your guests’ muddy shoes. This chamomile-accented cake was as pretty on the inside as it was on the outside. It featured three different flavors (lemon, chocolate, and strawberry) paired with Swiss meringue.
Your wedding is the best (and largest) dinner party of your life. So how exactly do you feed 150 of your nearest and dearest? Well, start with hiring people you trust to deliver—whether that’s the venue’s in-house caterer, a preferred caterer recommended by your planner, or even your favorite taco truck. And don’t be afraid to get creative with your menu! Your guests will enjoy tasting your favorite cocktail as much as they will your grandma’s blueberry pie. Pull up your Pinterest boards, people! It’s finally time to gather inspiration, select a color palette, and create a mood board. If you’re struggling for inspo, planner Jessica Sloane recommends taking a step back to look at things that are already in your world—like how you’ve decorated your house, what you are liking on Instagram, etc.—and draw inspiration from that.
In the midst of all the crazy planning and endless small details, don’t forget to actually plan time to get your marriage license! Start researching and gathering the necessary documents early on, but keep in mind that marriage licenses are typically only valid for a couple of months—and destination weddings often have their own stipulations—so plan accordingly. Planning your wedding and your dream honeymoon at the exact same time can be not only expensive but also very time consuming. Especially if the two of you are doing everything yourselves, it may be a good idea to postpone honeymoon planning just a bit. Many couples take some time off between the wedding and the honeymoon so that they can save up and reset the button on their planning priorities; sometimes, it helps to just focus on one thing at a time.
I just need to use HitchPlanner Seating Arrangement feature to organise my guest list and keep track of the RSVPs. Can i just use one of your features, instead of all of it? Sure! Just simply create an account and start adding your guests and organise them into categories such as, “Work colleagues”, “Footy club friends” etc. You, your partner and your collaborators can add guests simultaneously, create e-invitations and send them to your guests! Easy as 1, 2, 3! See extra information on Online RSVP Singapore wedding guest list and management tools.
Find a good photographer for your special day: When looking for a photographer, it should be someone who knows how to capture the most beautiful moments well. For instance, a warm suggestion is to consider someone like Ateia Photography because of their friendly and highly professional team. It is important that it’s someone with whom you can cooperate and who knows how to make you feel comfortable, especially if you’re planning a photoshoot to make some nice memories that will last for a lifetime.
Plan and gather the decorations of the reception and the ceremony. Time to put your Pinterest boards to good use! Use it for inspiration and discuss it with the vendors you hired for decorations. Make sure everyone has a copy of the Pinterest board for reference! Reserve rentals (Cars, wedding dresses, photo booth etc). Make arrangements for the transportation for the wedding day. (Pro-tip: You can ask a relative to help drive instead of hiring a chauffeur!) Get wedding insurance. Pro-tip: Do your research before deciding against it.
