So many little details going into a wedding- it can be easy to overlook some of the big ones!
☑️Transportation: If you have numerous locations through the day (getting ready, pictures, ceremony, reception) it is important to have a plan for who is driving who & in what vehicles! Don’t forgot to allow for travel time & check the gas tank as well!
☑️ Cake Cutting Set: You don’t want plastic knifes and forks in your cake cutting pictures! You could also add custom detailing which look beautiful in flatlays + make for a life-long set you can cut your anniversary cake with each year🍰
☑️ Vendor Gratuities: This ones simple...tip your service vendors!
☑️ Pens for the guest book: If you choose to have a written guest book- don’t forget to put out a few nicer pens! Your photographer will get shots of that welcome table!
☑️ Wooden Hangers: Hanging shots of the bride & bridesmaids dresses with wooden/unison hangers make a seamless photo! Rather than mismatched, different color plastic hangers! 👗
☑️ Marriage License: This one is a biggy-if not the biggest😅 You must obtain your marriage license from the courthouse at least 72 hours before the ceremony for it to be valid! I recommend couples get it 30 days out- just because things get extra busy a week or two before and you don’t want to forget! 90 days out from the ceremony is the earliest you can get it! (in the state of Texas)
☑️Dress Bustle: Brides- if you have a decent size train, you’re going to want a seamstress to add a bustle! Makes it easier for you to move around during reception & on the dance floor (plus no one will be stepping on it!) 💃🏼
☑️Passports: Lastly, if you’re going out of the country for your honeymoon, be sure your passport will be valid throughout the trip!! Don’t want to miss your trip or scramble last minute trying to get it renewed 🤪
