It’s definitely true, “Your wedding will be one of the most memorable days of your life.” But no one ever says that this statement comes with a hidden TnC – The beauty of your wedding will be directly proportionate to the impeccability of the wedding planning!Wedding planning is a skill: Not easy to ace, not every bride/groom-to-be has it in them and demands a bomb to outsource. Call it your lucky day, for we have a quick crash course to planning your wedding like a pro!Before Wedding:· Venues and vendors sell out the fastest. Book it at least 6-12 months before the D-day if you want to get something you love in the budget you want.· Much before saying yes to ‘the one’, you can start exploring multiple options of wedding shopping in Mumbai at well-known wedding & lifestyle exhibitions to get an overview of the upcoming bridal trends.· If you are a non-local, wanting to go for wedding shopping in Mumbai, Delhi, Bangalore or similar places, book flights in advance and research the best places along with their reviews so you can plan your shopping time well.· Always take a trial from your Make-up Artist. DO NOT trust social media!
· Ask for multiple quotes from different wedding vendors to ensure you get the best deal & ask for testimonials from weddings they have catered to in the past.
· Be it wedding shopping in Mumbai or deciding a per person costing with the wedding caterer – bargain, bargain and bargain!
During Wedding:
· Allot a bridesmaid for every task – helping with poses, holding essentials, coordinating with your wedding vendors. Make a task list for them to follow so you can enjoy your wedding while everything else is taken care of. Assign a person to pre-check the speakers, lights and venue decorations to avoid goof-ups.
· Always choose a trusted person (with a palate similar to yours) for the food tasting. Because food = everything, right?
And the final tip that no event planner ever tells you or can do for you – Enjoy the wedding! Smile, let go off little imperfections and remember you’ll live this moment only once!
