December has always been a busy time when, as the holidays are approaching, you have to hurry to properly prepare for spending the year, and to finish the work you have started, which should be left to be done in the old year. If you have recently been proposed to, you may think - is it worth starting wedding plans at this busy time? Maybe do it after celebrating the holidays and the coming of the new year? However, think about it - it would be valuable if the big picture of the wedding was clear already this month, so that in January you can start with the practical side - attracting service providers and working on the various nuances of wedding planning. And in fact, there are things that really shouldn't be postponed. Therefore, let's see what are the wedding planning things that can be done this year!
First task – wedding vision
There are endless ways to get married. It is beautiful that we can be authentic and true and marry where and how we want. But at the same time, confusion and many question marks can be born in absolute freedom. You want to realize everything, and it can be really difficult to choose - what exactly. Therefore, dream together, tell each other your wishes, share your vision until you reach a common denominator, so that at least the big lines are clear. Perfect if there is a wedding ceremony or wedding venue that you both see as the most desirable in your wedding vision. Then you can also start building your wedding concept in a style that matches the place of the wedding celebration. But if there is no specific place yet, agree in broad strokes: is it a restored manor, a chic restaurant, an ancient manor, where the modern alternates with old-fashioned wall exposures, a backyard meadow, an oak tree in the family homestead, a rocky beach, a sandy beach, a house in the forest. Choosing a place will make the next decisions easier. Just remember - you choose what and how you really want, not mom's dad, relatives and friends!
There are two essential actions that should not be postponed until next year, because already now you may encounter a situation where there is no space available either in the registry office or at the place of celebration, if it is requested. If your wedding ceremony will be officiated by a civil registry office, the dates in May - September fill up very quickly. The same applies to off-site ceremonies conducted by a civil registry officer, as well as off-site ceremonies with a requested wedding officiant. Therefore, first of all, find out if the date is available at the chosen place of the wedding ceremony and/or wedding celebration, and as soon as you know the available date, reserve it at the registry office located in the center of the county of the chosen place of celebration. If the date is officially announced, but the desired place of celebration is not, you may find yourself in a situation where you have to look for an alternative, which may not always be binding in the chosen area. By booking both the date and the place of the ceremony and/or celebration, you will be able to welcome the new year with a calm heart and start planning the wedding already in January.
Why choose a wedding photographer already this year? Wedding photographers schedules fill up very quickly, especially if you are getting married during the hottest wedding season from May to September. Explore the work styles of wedding photographers. The same wedding can be captured very differently: from austere elegance to romance and artistic freedom. Choosing a photographer depends on several factors, but the main thing to consider: you need to feel if it is your photographer. If you haven't met yet, the potential photographer's profile on the ligavam.lv website or the photographer's Instagram account will tell the photographer's story even if you haven't met yet. There are couples who choose even two professional wedding photographers for their wedding, capturing them from different angles.
While the holiday season is going on, the wedding date, ceremony and celebration place are discussed and the photographer is booked, you can focus on the playful part of organizing the wedding - creating a feeling collage or moodboard . If you are fond of stationery and use a printer at home, you can design it on a poster. An easier and more convenient way is to put together a collage of feelings on Pinterest or another tool that you like to use. The purpose of Moodboard is to arrive at your wedding style, to crystallize what fits and what is superfluous, and a collage of feelings is necessary for quite practical purposes - take your collage of feelings with you when meeting with service providers. This will allow you to share your vision as closely as possible. Moodboard will be useful when going to a wedding planner, florist, decorator and caterer.
It's a festive season, which for you - the engaged couple - has started with a wonderful, new stage in life. It is a unique time that should not be missed by devoting yourself to work, projects and wedding planning alone. As in all areas of life, harmony and balance are essential for our well-being, both physically, mentally and emotionally. Schedule time together, as well as time apart, where you focus on yourself, each other, and the present moment. Let time not rush. Let the moments remain like jewels in the storehouse of memories. So that you can feel what is happening. So that you can feel how the family forces pave the way for you. Nothing can be missed but life itself.
To make it easier to host a wedding and receive recommendations at any time of the day, LĪGAVĀM has created a wedding planner, which has just been released in a renewed form.
The wedding planner is divided into 12 large chapters with sub-themes, including all stages and areas of wedding planning and organization, from the wedding vision to a carefully designed budget table, a plan for seating guests at the table and recommendations for choosing wedding transport.
The wedding planner is rich in professional advice - nuances that have crystallized from being in the wedding field. That's why - both if you organize the wedding with the support of wedding organizers and if you have undertaken to organize it yourself, in the wedding planner you will find tips that are within arm's reach at any time - all you have to do is put the planner in your bag and take it with you in your daily routine.
