Your wedding day can be exciting but also overwhelming. Here are some of our favorite ways for you to stay calm and fully enjoy your special day:
1. Start the Day Slowly
• Wake up early to avoid rushing.
• Do some light stretching, yoga, or deep breathing to center yourself.
• Enjoy a calm breakfast with soothing music.
2. Delegate & Trust Your Team
• Let us as your planner, coordinator, or trusted friends handle last-minute details.
• Assign someone to manage phone calls and questions so you can focus on yourself. We like to take this responsibility off your shoulders!
3. Stay Hydrated & Eat Well
• Drink plenty of water to stay energized.
• Have light, nutritious snacks (fruit, nuts, smoothies) to avoid a sugar crash.
4. Take a Few Solo Moments
• Step away from the crowd for five minutes of alone time to breathe and soak in the moment.
• Write in a journal or read a personal note to remind yourself of what truly matters.
5. Surround Yourself with Positive Energy
• Choose calming, uplifting music while getting ready. We love a wonderful Enya playlist!
• Keep only supportive, relaxing people around you.
6. Use Aromatherapy or a Signature Scent
• Essential oils like lavender or chamomile can help ease nerves.
• Wear a perfume that makes you feel confident and happy.
7. Focus on the Present
• Let go of perfection—things may not go exactly as planned, and that’s okay.
• Look around, smile, and take in each moment.
8. Have a First Look or Private Vow Exchange (if it feels right)
• Seeing your partner before the ceremony can help ease nerves.
• A private moment together can be grounding and emotional in a good way.
9. Breathe & Stay Mindful
• If stress creeps in, inhale deeply for four seconds, hold for four, exhale for four.
• Remind yourself that this day is about love, not perfection.
