Some Tips for Brides to Be
Permalink Closed


Since I was married a few months ago, I wanted to share just a few things that I really thought were helpful to me. A few you hear over and over again, but some I still managed to forget on the big day.

1. Get as many things you can get done the week before, so you can really relax the week of.

2. Make envelopes before the wedding with the checks for all the vendors that you need to pay the day of and have someone other than you pay them.

3. Ask for help, I tried to take on too many things and it really stressed me out. I was amazed at how many people that wanted to help me and they weren't my bridesmaids!

4. Stay away from salty foods the week of, I was so bloated on my wedding day.

5. Take a moment to yourself with your new husband to let things sink in that you have just gotten married. Especially good if your photographer follows you and captures it, but doesn't bother you.

6. Do what you want, but remember to thank everyone that is helping you out.

7. Let the guests come to you, they will don't worry.

8. Ask for a basket to be prepared for you and your hubby of your wedding food, even with our sit down dinner we didn't get to eat and really appreciated it when we got back to our cottage that night!

9. When there are mistakes, really only you and anyone that was really involved with the planning will know, and sometimes they can be a blessing. Our guitarist didn't stop playing the song for the entrance of the bridesmaids even though I was standing in the doorway, I had to laugh at the fact that I was standing in the doorway and all my guests were standing waiting for me to walk down the aisle but he kept on playing the other song. When he finally realized it, I was so much more at ease and remembered to smile walking down the aisle, instead of being nervous.

10. Don't be afraid to ask for what you want, if you are not happy with your make-up ask for changes, they want to make sure you are happy. Also if you want a few more pictures, or a different shot ask for them you only get this chance once!

10. Have fun, and let go, it can be the best night of your life!

Good luck to all our Brides to Be!
