Create a list of everything you need to do and from that, in time, make some sub lists (yes, we love a list!). There is a lot to consider and organise but don’t let it feel overwhelming. Do your list making together and then you can choose which items of your wedding preparations to do together and which to do individually. Prioritise the important things and tick off items once they are done and that way you can see the progress you are making with your wedding preparations!

Make a budget for your day, there is no point in designing a day which is completely beyond your financial means. There are ways of trimming the budget (eg. number of guests, style of catering, free bar/paying bar) so make sure you have a good idea of what you can afford.

Once you have decided on the date, book the essentials first. It sounds silly but don’t plan the table your decorations if you don’t have a ceremony booked or your venue/marquee. Each year some weekends get booked up really quickly, so don’t get caught out. Ceremony, marquee, caterer, photographers/bands are key components and all need to be available on the same day! Once these are sorted you can start thinking about and all the other details.

Bring a Bit of Yourself to Your Day

What makes a wedding memorable? It’s all the personal touches, the little things that are about you both. Marquees allow you to making your day very individual and unique. They are a blank canvas for decorations and all the trimmings that make your day yours. Your friends and family will LOVE sharing it with you.

Have Fun!

Don’t get too hung up on the finer details if they are causing you stress. Enjoy the preparations; get your friends and family involved, to share the load, and make sure you have some fun along the way!
