However - what not to do?

Spending more than a year on wedding planning

It may seem that the more time we have to organize the wedding, the more calmly we will be able to do everything step by step. Yes, it is. But only if a specific goal has been set - what will be the wedding format, style, atmosphere. If you hesitate for half a year about which dress to choose, you will be so tired of it that you won't be able to understand what you really want anymore - this, in turn, will take away a dose of charm from the wedding.

Make a choice based on price, not your preferences

The offer of dresses , brands, wedding venues is so wide that it is no wonder if you get confused in the large selection. And that's normal. Therefore, it is recommended to come step by step to your true feelings about how you see and feel your wedding day.

The most expensive is not always the best. Quality, of course, will cost more when it comes, for example, to the work of photographers . But if there is a question, whether to have a wedding in a luxurious castle just because it will be expensive, exclusive and look good, or to get married on the seashore in solitude because that is what your heart desires; or order an expensive bridal bouquet with selected peonies, although you want to go to the altar with flowers from your mother's garden. You will find the answer by thinking - what will warm your heart next?

Relying on the advice of others without taking into account the inner feelings

It is really nice that relatives, friends, acquaintances recommend which service providers to choose, but it is important that you make the final choice yourself. What works for some will not work for others. All service providers should be met individually and assessed to see if you are on track.

Indulge others

This is a very important point. The mother of the bride has her own wishes, the mother of the groom has other wishes, and she does not want to offend anyone. However, all these people had their own time and their own opportunities to realize their dream wedding. Now it's your turn! Maintain your self-respect and experience exactly the wedding you want without spoiling it for anyone else.

Take on too many responsibilities

A wedding is a celebration. Celebrations for the bride and groom. If you also like to organize everything yourself, create decorations yourself, bake cakes and take the lead, you should give the reins to others in the process of organizing your wedding and especially on the wedding day. That's why there are professionals, wedding planners, service providers, friends, relatives - divide the responsibilities so that you can relax and enjoy the wedding day, as well as face the day cheerfully, not tired or nervous.
