This is your sign to get that temporary tattoo bar!
This was epic, I just had to get one... so many people thought it was real.
Temporary tattoos were definitely a crowd pleaser. Even mums and dads were loving it!

Short answer...
YES!
Though, the rule of thumb is... it is common courtesy to feed the vendors that you have there all or most of the day - your videographer, photographer, wedding singer, or any other than that are there for longer than 6 hours.
Think of it like offering the plumber a cup of tea - it's just kind. Yes, you are paying them, but it is an act of kindness that goes a long way.
Vendor meals are a lot cheaper than paying per head at a venue.
ALSO, it is probably in their contract. So... make sure you read that!
Now you may ask WHY?
There's a few reasons, but the main one is that there is just nowhere to store a sandwich or home meal at a venue for that length of time...
Do they want to eat with us?
NO! We will just find a quiet place to eat - if your venue is used to this, there will be a designated area for the vendors to eat whilst you do before getting back to work quite promptly.

Wanna know?
Other people... yes... that is right... other people. More so, their opinions.
Generally, people mean well, but it is something about weddings that throws common sense out the window, and everyone suddenly wants to have a say on your big day.
The less information other people know about your wedding, the less they can give their thoughts or advice. If you want it - great. If not, a good phrase to use to deflect is: THANKS, WE WILL MAKE A DECISION ON THAT LATER.
If not, just tell them it is your wedding, not theirs π€ͺ if you have any experience with this... drop something in the comments!

TOP TIPS ON GETTING YOUR WEDDING PLANNING STARTED:
π ENJOY the high of getting engaged - there is no need to rush the process.
π ORGANISE yourselves - make time to sit down and discuss your likes, dislikes, wants and needs surrounding weddings. This is important so that you can get on the same page.
π ASSESS your finances - I've said it before and I will say it again... a wedding is no excuse to go into debt. Weddings can be wonderful whether you have a big budget or not.
π MAKE A LIST of attendees - you're wondering why so early on? It's a great idea to make a list of who you want to invite. Venues have capacities; and food per head costs money. This will greatly help with budgeting.
π TAKE YOUR TIME and research - look at reviews, talk to vendors in person, go to wedding fairs. You do not need to book straight away unless it feels right. You won't regret the time taken to think about something.
If you DO need any help, I offer full & partial wedding planning, as well as 2-hour planning sessions for those who want a little boost.
