5 Common Mistakes - Wedding Planner Services, Gilbert AZ

5 Most Common Mistakes Couples Make Planning for Their Wedding.
 


​Mistake 1: Not Setting a Budget Before Making Plans

Rushing off without a plan and not setting a budget from the go, is one of the biggest mistakes we can make when planning our wedding.
Choosing a fabulous wedding dress or an amazing exotic venue, without knowing how much you can spend on each is a recipe for disaster.
It’s like getting to the checkout counter with your “gotta have” items and having no clue what it says on the price ticket. This can only lead to disappointment.

You risk feeling totally crushed when you realize you can’t afford it. 

Imagine if the only way to afford it was if you halved the size of your wedding and invited only half the number of guest…or cancel the honeymoon.
What you need to do is keep a steady head and just initially concentrate on these three main things: setting a budget, number of guests and venue.
After all, your budget will define your options.

Mistake 2: Sweating the Small Stuff

Your best friend may forget to bring the carefully prepared gust favors you asked them to, your cousin may embarrass himself at the bar and your father in law may annoy everyone with his loud character.

But really, who cares?

His is your big day and you are marrying the love of your life! It’s too easy to get massively distracted by all this trivia and couples can miss out on just “being there” and soaking up the moment for themselves.

After all, who’s wedding is it anyway? It’s difficult to enjoy what’s happening around you when you’re wrapped up in trying to make sure everything is perfect.

Answer: Hire a good Wedding Planner!

Mistake 3: Inviting Too Many Guests 
 
This is far too common and we see it a lot.

Don’t invite everyone and their dog as it will put a real strain on your venue, as you guests will be packed in like sardines and it will be difficult to move between tables, let alone try dancing later.

Confirm the ideal number of people who can comfortably fit in the venue, then reduce it by ten percent. Don’t make the church or wedding venue a “squeeze”.

Mistake 4: Micromanaging

Constantly getting your vendors to confirm timings and details is not only exhausting, but showing a lack of trust.
Don’t forget, your vendors have all done this before and you may not have.
​
You’ve done your due diligence before you hired them, so now is the time to let them get on with what they know and give them creative licence to produce a wonderful experience for you and your guests.
Free yourself up to enjoy the day.

Mistake 5: Not Hiring a Videographer

You may think after one viewing, no one will ever watch your wedding video again, but the reality is this is not an area to skip and try to save money.

Nothing comes close to being able to sit down with your loved ones, or children you don’t yet have, to watch your wedding day.

It will be cherished by generations to come and may even be a source of comfort for them, after you’ve gone. Who knows? 

The day will go by in a flash and you simply cannot take in everything that happened, but with a recording of the special events, you’ll rediscover all sorts of little details and mishaps that will bring a smile to your face later!
