So what is the most important thing for a wedding?
The single most important thing for your wedding day is to RELAX!
Relax … THAT is the most important thing for a wedding to be a great event.
But how can you relax when it is such an important event?
This is probably easier said than done, but not relaxing and taking the time to really slow down and absorb the day is one of the regrets some couples have after the day.
A wedding takes months of careful planning and consideration. There are so many tiny details to make sure are right, then on the day it is all done in only a matter of hours!
This can leave couples feeling “post wedding blues” as the planning is done and there is a void left to fill. (It isn’t uncommon to see a lot of past brides becoming wedding planners in an attempt to fill this void!)
It is important on the day to not overthink it anymore. The die has been cast, the choices have been made. There is no time left to make alterations. This is now the time to relax and enjoy your day. To NOT think about what has been chosen. If something doesn’t go exactly to plan, this is not the time to stress over it. Just move on and don’t let it ruin your day. This is NOT the time to watch the time and worry about what time certain things are supposed to happen, this is the reason you have a Master of Ceremonies and Wedding Co-Ordinator. The Wedding Co-Ordinator looks after the first part of the day and the Master of Ceremonies looks after the running of the rest of the day from at least reception on (however often from the ceremony onwards).
The key to relaxing on your day really is in your confidence in the people you have chosen to provide you with a stress free event.
What else do you need to know about the most important thing for a wedding?
Your flowers have been taken care of by someone your trust to provide you with the right flowers in the right style you want.
Your styling has been carefully tailored to meet your vision of how you want everything to look.
You know your photos will be fantastic because you have taken the time to meet your photographer and look through their portfolio so you know what style and quality you can expect.
You know that everyone is going to have a fantastic time because you have taken the time to meet your entertainer and you know your guests will be in great hands with them.
Your event is going to run smoothly because you didn’t make the common mistake of asking a friend or family member to be the master of ceremonies, you hired a professional that does this for a living.
You look forward to your meal because you taste tested the meals and they were fantastic. (You also know your meals won’t be served cold or dried out because your master of ceremonies will keep things on time!)
These are just some of the things that you will relax knowing you have under control when you surround yourself with trusted industry professionals.
