Wedding Prep Tips for Brides:
1. Prep in advance: Have all your accessories, shoes, and jewellery laid out and ready to go the night before, so there’s no last-minute scrambling.
2. Wear a robe or button-up shirt: This way, you won’t mess up your hair or makeup when it’s time to change into your dress.
3. Break in your wedding shoes: Wear them around the house before the big day, so they're comfortable and won’t cause blisters.
4. Schedule buffer time: Always allow extra time for hair, makeup, and getting dressed. This will keep you from feeling rushed and stressed.
5. Snack smart: Have light, easy-to-eat snacks available, like fruit, nuts, or crackers, to keep your energy up without risking any spills on your dress.
6. Stay present: Take a moment for yourself, breathe, and soak in this once-in-a lifetime moment before the festivities begin.

Planning a wedding on a budget: 💍1. Hire an expert: A wedding planner or coordinator knows the industry and can help you stay within budget by leveraging their network of suppliers. Connections are key to getting better deals. 💍2. Leverage your contacts: If you have friends or family with specific skills—whether it’s photography, baking, or music—ask if they can help out. It can save costs and add a personal touch. 💍3. Florals: Instead of DIY-ing, work with a florist who understands seasonal flowers. This can prevent overspending and save you from unnecessary stress. 💍4. Menu selection: Think carefully about your food choices. A canapé-style reception may be more affordable than a sit-down banquet. Consider fun alternatives like burger bars or street food stations. 💍5. DIY stationery: Platforms like Canva make it easy to design your own invitations, saving you money on printing and design costs. 💍6. Prioritize what matters: Focus on the key elements that are most important to you, whether it’s the food, music, or decor, and build your wedding around those. Cut back on less essential details.
