✨ Consulting with your vendors ahead of time is key to a seamless wedding day! ✨

From your photographer and planner to your caterer and DJ, each vendor plays an important role in your celebration. Scheduling a pre-wedding consultation allows you to align on details, finalize your timeline, and address any last-minute questions. This helps your vendors work together smoothly, ensures everything runs on schedule, and gives you peace of mind to truly enjoy your day!

💡 Pro tip: Share your finalized timeline and any special requests at least 2–3 weeks before your wedding so everyone is prepared and on the same page.

Wedding Timeline: 12 months out

The countdown to “I do” starts here!🤍
A year out from your wedding is all about setting the foundation for everything to come. Begin by setting your overall budget and deciding who’s contributing—this will guide every choice you make. Next, create your guest list to get an idea of your ideal headcount and what size venue you’ll need.

Once you have a guest estimate, choose your wedding date or season and book your venue—these are two of the most important first steps! If you’re considering a planner, now is the perfect time to bring one on board to help with logistics, design, and vendor coordination.

Ask your loved ones to be part of your wedding party, and start collecting inspiration—think color palettes, floral styles, and design ideas that reflect your vision. Finally, start researching and booking key vendors like your photographer, videographer, and caterer, since they often book up a year in advance.

Wedding planning doesn’t have to be overwhelming — it’s all about taking it one step at a time. 🤍

Start 12 months out by setting your budget, booking your venue, and hiring your dream planner or photographer. As the months go on, you’ll refine details like your florals, menu, décor, and beauty timeline. By the time your wedding week arrives, you’ll feel organized, prepared, and ready to soak in every special moment.

There are different ways to kick off the wedding festivities. Both through a rehearsal dinner and or a welcome party. But there are both a bit different from one another.

🤍Rehearsal:
The rehearsal is typically a short, organized run-through of your ceremony—usually involving your wedding party, officiant, and close family. It ensures everyone knows their roles, timing, and where to be on the big day, helping the ceremony flow seamlessly.

🩷Welcome Party:
The welcome party happens after the rehearsal (or on its own) and is a more relaxed, social event that includes all guests. Especially those who traveled to be there. It’s your chance to mingle, celebrate, and kick off the wedding weekend in a fun, welcoming atmosphere.
