4 Ways to Take the Stress Out of Planning Your Dream Wedding
Now that weddings are back in full swing, wedding planning pros predict that couples-to-be will want to up their game when it comes to the hospitality element of their weddings. Here are some tips to have less stress (and more fun!) while planning your dream wedding.
1. Make Sure You Book Your Venue EARLY - Then Take Your Time!
Find a venue you love, book it, and then work backward to avoid "panic booking." (Panic booking leads to panic planning!) The wedding specialists at The Goei Center are here to help you navigate availability to create the event of your dreams in a beautiful and historic setting. They’ll help you develop your planning timeline to make sure your day is perfect.
2. Divvy Up & Delegate The Details
Enlist the help of loved ones - or hire a pro - to avoid task overload. Focus on the things you love and don’t stress about the rest. Are you a foodie? Then own the menu selection. Love flowers? Then the florist is yours. But don’t do it all - pick your spots.
3. Planning Parties
To keep it fun and avoid endless text message chains, host a brunch to sort out wedding party details. Make it a contest to come up with signature cocktails or prep guest gift bags. If you’re stuck on the seating chart, have a dinner party with your parter-to-be and parents to hammer it out over dessert.
4. Remember the Romance
Don’t let the details drown out the reason you’re getting married. Plan “wedding-free zone” date nights to relax and enjoy each other’s company. After all, that’s the point of all this planning!
