Embrace the rain. Don’t let it dampen your day. OK, it’s not perfect but it will always create great and unique images!”
“Don’t sweat the small stuff. It’s easy to get bogged down by all the small details or worry if you think something isn’t going to plan but remember the day is all about love and everyone sharing that with you. Also, as long as you’ve got booze, food and music everyone will have a great time!”
“Don’t forget to factor in travel time. Going between bridal prep, church and the reception venue means you lose a bit of time during key parts of the day. This can impact on the time you have with friends and family and for photos of just the two of you.”
“Make sure to get biodegradable confetti (or bubbles!) You’re much more likely to be only allowed to use that type nowadays. Though of course, check with the venue beforehand as well.”
“Invite people that make you happy. Everyone has a limited budget and you can’t invite the world, a lot of my couples sacrifice inviting certain people because they think they should and instead invite people they know will really celebrate their day with them. The atmosphere is so much more buoyant throughout the day.”
“If your venue allows games, go for it! They can create great fun images and gives your guests something to do during drinks reception and its an inexpensive form of entertainment.”
