💸 How to Stick to Your Wedding Budget💸

Sticking to any budget can be challenging if you don’t have a few ground rules. Here are our top tips to keep your budget in check!

1. 📊 Prioritise: List what's most important to you—having all your friends and family present, an exclusive venue, photography and videography, location, etc. Allocate the budget based on your top priorities. For example, an extensive guest list will likely mean a more modest venue.

2. 📅 Timeline: Set a realistic timeline so you can save more if needed.

3. 📜 Break It Down: Divide your budget into categories (venue, catering, attire) and assign a percentage to each category so you know exactly how much you have to spend.

4. 🔍 Research: Look for deals, compare prices, read reviews to get the best value, and read your contracts to avoid hidden costs.

5. 💬 Communicate: Share your budget allocation and communicate openly with your partner and anyone helping to plan your day to avoid overspending.

6. ✨ Stay Flexible: Be prepared to adjust your expectations to accommodate your budget if needed.

💌✨Here's how to decide who's on the Guest List! 💌✨

Deciding on your wedding guest list can be tricky, especially when you have a budget and venue capacity to consider and need to pick and choose between friends and family to join you. But don't worry - with our guest list tips, you'll have yours sorted in no time!

Start Big, Then Trim ✨ Begin by listing everyone you'd love to invite. It's easier to start big and narrow it down afterward

Prioritize VIPs 💖Identify your must-have guests – immediate family, close friends, and anyone else essential to your day.

Kids or No Kids? 👶Decide if you want a child-free wedding. An adults-only wedding can significantly impact your numbers.

Plus-Ones ➕Set a rule for plus-ones. If a guest is in a serious relationship, inviting their partner is considerate.

Consider Relationships 🤝Think about your relationship with potential guests. Have you spoken recently? Will they add joy to your day?

Evening Only Invites 📩We all have those new friends or neighbours we enjoy but might not have known that long.

Divide and Conquer 📋 Split the list between you, your partner, and both families. Ensure everyone has input and feels included, especially if they are contributing financially. It doesn't have to be a 50/50 split, especially if one of you has a bigger family than the other.

Venue Capacity 🏰 Your guest list needs to fit comfortably within that number. Your guest count might be a deciding factor in your choice of venue, but if you've already chosen your venue, you might have to trim your guest list to fit.

Set Your Budget 💸 Knowing your budget will help you determine your venue and, ultimately, the size of your guest list. Keep costs and venue capacity in mind as you start refining your list.

B-list Backup ✍️ Keep your main list manageable and create a secondary list of guests you want to invite if spots open up.

Stick to Your Plan 🗓️ Stay true to your initial vision and decisions and agree on your guest list with your partner BEFORE you send out any save-the-dates. Once they've been sent, there's no easy way back!

Happy planning! 💍🌟

💍🌟 How to Set Your Wedding Budget - Top Tips 💍🌟

1. 💵 Start with Your Savings: This is the cornerstone of your wedding budget. Determine how much you want to spend and can comfortably spend without financial stress.

2. 🏡 Future Plans: Your wedding is only the beginning. What else is in your future? A house, traveling, a family? Factor in savings for your married life goals.

3. 💑 Contributions: Discuss with family if they'll be contributing to your budget, and don't just assume how much. The 'how much' conversation is crucial to determine your overall budget, no matter how uncomfortable it may be.

4. 📊 Prioritise: List what's most important to you—having all your friends and family present, an exclusive venue, photography and videography, location, etc. Allocate the budget based on your top priorities.

5. 👥 The Guest List: Don’t underestimate the importance of the guest list in setting your budget. Balancing your budget, venue capacity, personal wishes, and family dynamics can be tricky. Inviting your entire guest list may mean a more modest venue or a buffet instead of table service.

6. 💳 Avoid Debt: Use credit wisely and avoid starting your marriage with debt.

7. 📝 Hidden Costs: Plan your budget with a buffer for the unexpected - factor in tips and 10% of your overall budget for unforeseen expenses.

8. 📅 Timeline: Set a realistic timeline to save more, if needed, and still have money available to celebrate and socialise throughout your engagement.

9. 🧘 Be Open to Suggestions: That exclusive venue you’ve always wanted versus having all your friends at your wedding? Way it up, and be open to different ideas. You might just stumble across something incredible that suits your guest list and keeps you within budget!

A good budget is one that reflects your vision (wedding day and beyond) and keeps you stress-free! 💖📝

1. **Order of Service**: Organise the sequence from your entrance to exit for a smooth flow. 🎶

2. **Officiant**: Choose someone who resonates with your values and truly add to the ceremony. 👩‍⚖️👨‍⚖️

3. **Readings**: Select readings from literature, poetry, or personal writings that reflect you, your fiancé/fiancée and your relationship. 📖❤️

4. **Hymns & Music**:
- **Pre-Ceremony Music**: Set the tone as guests arrive. 🎻🎼

- **Recessional**: Your exit music. 🎺💃

5. **Vows**: Personalise your vows or go traditional. ✍️💑

🚗💍 **Choose the Perfect Wedding Vehicle** 💍🚗

Details, such as your wedding vehicle, make your wedding day unique. So whether your dream is to arrive in a classic vintage car, a sleek modern ride, or something quirky like a decked-out VW bus, it will set the tone for your day.

Here are some things to consider when choosing your sweet wedding ride 👇👇

1. **Think About Your Style:** What would you be if you were a vehicle? A classic car, a chic limo, a laid-back row boat, a luxury yacht, or a retro Vespa, maybe!

2. **Consider Your Journey:** Whatever you choose, consider the time you'll spend in (or even on) your vehicle! A convertible, Vespa, or bicycle would make a great prop for some photos, but won't be so good for your hair!

3. Make It Uniquely Yours: Don't be afraid to add personal touches to your wedding vehicle. Custom license plates, floral decorations, a playful "Just Married" sign, or even the traditional tin cans can all be used to showcase your unique personality.

4. Balance Style and Comfort: Style is important, and so is comfort. Ensure your chosen vehicle is not only stylish but also comfortable for you and your wedding party.

5. **Capture the Moment:** Opting for a vehicle that photographs well and adds to the visual narrative of your wedding album is a must.

Whatever you choose, make sure it feels right for you both. This ride marks the beginning of your new journey together, so make it a ride that everyone will remember! 💕✨

📝💍 Before signing that wedding vendor contract, consider these top 10 things to ensure a smooth and magical day! ✨💒

1. Read the Whole Contract! 🕵️‍♀️📋
While not the most exciting of wedding planning tasks, by a long shot, this is definitely one of the most important! Check all your wedding vendor contracts for the following 👇 👇

2. **Service Details** 📋🔍
Know exactly what's included! Make sure the contract clearly outlines the scope of services.

3. **Total Costs and Payment Terms** 💸💳
Don't miss any hidden fees! Ensure there is a detailed breakdown of costs and understand the payment schedule.

4. **Cancellation and Refund Policies** 🚫💰
The unexpected does sometimes happen! Know the terms for cancellations and refunds for both you and your vendor.

5. **Change Policy** 🔄📝
Flexibility is key! Check how changes to the contract will be handled and any additional costs.

6. **Vendor’s Contingency Plans** 🔧🆘
Always have a plan for the unexpected on the day! Ensure there are backup plans for emergencies.

7. **Liability and Insurance** 🛡️📄
Protect yourself from potential issues and verify the vendor's insurance coverage and liability clauses.

8. **Timeline and Deadlines** ⏰📅
Avoid last-minute stress! Ensure there are clear timelines for service delivery, setup, and clear down.

9. **Client Responsibilities** 🏛️📂
Know what your vendors need from you, such as pre-arranging and agreeing to access the venue for setup or specific information to coordinate your vendors and venue.

10. **Dispute Resolution** ⚖️🤝
Nip any issues in the bud and understand the dispute resolution process should any problems arise.

Sometimes, things don't go as planned, so do your groundwork and sign confidently. And if the contract is complex, consider having it reviewed by a legal expert to avoid any expensive disappointments and maybe even heartache💔

👀❤️ Should You See Each Other Before The Wedding? 👀💍

Wondering whether to have a First Look on your wedding day? Here are some pros and cons 👇

**Pros:**
1. Intimate Moment Together:
Experience a deeply personal, emotional moment that is uniquely yours, away from the crowd, a moment shared just for you. 🤗💞

2. Capture Genuine Emotions:
Get your photographer's raw, unfiltered reactions perfectly captured. 📷😭

3. Better Timeline Management:
A first look means your photographer can take your bridal and wedding party photos before the ceremony, allowing you more time to enjoy your cocktail hour! 🍸⏰

4. Reducing Pre-Ceremony Jitters:
Calm your nerves by seeing your partner before the ceremony. 😌❤️

5. More Time Together:
Revel in the Joy and excitement of a special moment just for the two of you before the day's whirlwind begins. 🤗 🤗 💫

**Cons:**
1. Breaking Tradition:
The magic of the first look at the aisle can't be replicated. 😲

2. Logistics and Timing:
Requires starting your day a little earlier than your ceremony time. 🕒📝

3. Emotional Impact:
Might dilute the emotional impact of the groom's reaction at the aisle. 😯❤️

4. Potential for Disruption:
Weather or timing issues could add a little stress. ☔️😬

5. Privacy Considerations:
Not entirely private with the photographer and videographer present. 📸🤷‍♀️

Whether you choose to have a first look or stick with tradition, we know you'll make the right decision for you. 💖✨

All of these cons, except number 1, can be counteracted with good timeline prep and being comfortable with your choices. Starting your day earlier could also mean a slightly later ceremony time, which could help the day flow more fluidly - the emotional impact of your reaction at the aisle versus your first look. Weather and timing issues could add stress with or without a first look. And neither a first look in private nor at the aisle will be entirely private. Let us know your thoughts or experiences in the comments below! 👇💬👀

3. **Relive the Day** 📚
Scroll through your hashtag to relive the joy and laughter of your wedding day. It’s like having a digital album filled with love from all your guests.

4. **Personalised Touch** 💕
A creative hashtag adds a personal touch to your celebration. Whether it’s a play on your names or a fun inside joke, make it uniquely yours.

So, get creative, and make sure to share your hashtag with your guests! 🎉✨
