Each couple wants their wedding to be perfect, so do not postpone the preparation for the wedding later. Start your preparation immediately.

How to prepare for the wedding

The first steps in preparing for the wedding

First, you need to decide whether you are interested in hiring a wedding planner or arranging everything your own. The event planner is an expert who provides you with professional arrangements. There are several benefits of hiring an event planner, but we are not going to discuss this part here. Let’s stick to the topic and discuss the theme of the event. In the first case, all the worries and troubles are laid on the shoulders of experienced people who will prepare you for the event. You just have to enjoy the anticipation of the experts and guests. In the second case, you will independently monitor the progress of preparation, do everything as you see fit.

  1. Wedding Plan

In the process of preparing the wedding, you will have to solve many questions. For a successful event, not to forget about anything, get yourself a daily routine planner. It will help you in remembering everything essential in noting down important things during preparation. You will write down the contacts you need help with, addresses of restaurants, salons, dates of important meetings, etc. The bride should keep a collection of wedding-related data in her mobile like photos of dresses she likes, wedding flower arrangements, decor options for the banquet hall, cakes, etc.

  1. Budget calculation

The first item in terms of preparing for the wedding should be a rough budget. At first, you will not be able to manage and handle all the costs at once, but you need to decide the budget that you are willing to spend. Only newlyweds do not spend money on the celebration, but also their parents. It is recommended that they discuss at the family council with relatives what contribution each person can make for his part.

If your own funds are not enough, but you do not have to wait for help from the outside, think about a loan. Decide what you are willing to save on, choose cheaper options for the event, so as not to go beyond the decided budget. After that, go to the bank and discuss with its representatives the terms of the loan programs, and move ahead with a suitable option.

When you calculate the wedding budget, divide the expenses into categories:

  • Outfits of the bride, groom;

  • The decor of the motorcade, hall;

  • Flowers

  • Registration ceremony;

  • Photo, video shooting;

  • Banquet.

For each of these main categories, it is recommended to set a maximum amount.

  1. Deciding the wedding date

When choosing a wedding date, consider these factors:

  • The scale of celebration;

  • Desired time of year;

  • The opportunity to take a weekend or vacation at work for this time;

  • The availability of the banquet hall on the desired day;

  • Time to prepare for the wedding.

Even if you plan for a modest wedding with a minimum number of guests, it will take three months to complete the arrangements. If you have hired an event planner, it is really a good decision. To make magnificent arrangements at your wedding, keep it in mind that it could take around nine months to prepare for it. It is better to reserve your venue six months before the decided date. You can also book your desired restaurant.

After you decide the wedding date, move to the registration office for booking confirmation. However, if you want to arrange it in the Central Palace of Weddings, difficulties may arise. For this, you need a margin of time to apply in advance.

  1. Making a guest list

Sometimes the number of guests present at the banquet or ceremony may vary. So, you may need to make two lists. Think about who you want to see at the gala dinner, and whom you invite to the registry office. It only depends on your desires and financial capabilities. When sending invitations to the wedding for guests, ask them to notify about their presence or absence at the celebration by a certain date. This strategy also helps you to order the exact number of seats in the restaurant.

  1. Booking a venue

If you are planning a traditional-style celebration by having dinner at a restaurant, go around several places to choose the best. Check out the menu, check the style and colour scheme; the decor of the hall is also important. Whether it suits the theme of your wedding or you have to make some design details yourself. Many restaurants offer their musicians as accompaniment for a wedding evening. However, if you want your favourite band or guest stars to play at the celebration, discuss this issue with the manager of the venue.
