So what is the secret to planning a stress-free wedding?
Did we follow a magically book which told us how to plan the wedding?
Did we hire a wedding planner?
Maybe I had a moogle to magic me the day?
(Unfortunately the final option was not possible but if only it was, wouldn't it be great!)
Nope the secret is planning. No really, I'm not joking, if you want anything to go well then planning is the secret and don't be fooled by other people who say it was stressful. Once you have planned and put everything in place, it should all fall into place.
And despite what people keep throwing at us, never did we panic or worry about our wedding. In fact, we managed to annoyed people with our relaxed attitude. However we could afforded to be relaxed because we had planned it to be this way.
Now no matter how spontaneous your wedding is, a degree of planning is needed and before we began to make any lists, budgets or announcing our engagement to our parents, we did the most important thing an engaged couple should do.
We both discussed what we want for the big day!
Yes we sat down and talked about what we would like. No paper, no computer, nothing! We just talked about how we both wanted a calm and relaxing day without too much pomp and for the ceremony itself to be as simple as possible.
This discussion proved to us that we both wanted the same thing out of our wedding and setup a nice solid foundation for all our plans.
So why not do the same? It can be as formal as you want or you can just keep it casual. How you do it isn't important but rather the outcome of the conversation that is key.
