Wedding in any household is such a big event. The main responsibility lies on the shoulders of the parents of the bride and the groom. That is not to say that the bride and the groom do not have the responsibility but yes the larger responsibility is on the parents.
Wedding is such a memorable event in one's life that you can hardly afford to have any untoward and unsavory incidents on the wedding day itself. That said it is imperative that you plan the wedding very well and that too the planning should begin about three to four months in advance. Last minute running around causes undue stress and also you are likely to miss out on a few things.
The best thing to do is to get a wedding planning fact sheet or a checklist from the online websites and start the planning using that. Most likely they are very exhaustive and that means that they can be used as a guide to help you write down all the important dates and the contacts.
Another thing to consider is that whether you want to use the services of a wedding planner. They definitely cost you more money but since they are experienced they know everything about the wedding events and also they know whom to contact for each kind of service. For example rather you running around finding a good floral designer they will already have a list for you. That may save you time and undue pressure.
Then the wedding planner knows all the shops to source materials from as opposed to you doing you own research and wasting precious time. Then since you will not be experienced any misstep can cause you grave harm in terms of undue delays and last minute rush .
Apart from this you need to think about all the bookings that you need to make in advance such as the flower bookings, the wedding hall booking, the bridal car booking and also the booking for the bridal gown selection and fitting trials. You need to make these well in advance as these need time as well the rush with the retailers means that they cannot do this in the nick of time for the wedding.
You need to go through your checklist every single day and also make sure that the entire family gets involved in the planning phase itself. That way you can easily distribute the work. The other benefit is that you will get some very valuable suggestions from the family members.
Keep these things in mind or rather on a checklist or a diary and you will never go wrong planning a marriage.
