For busy couples juggling careers, family, and wedding planning, it can be easy to feel overwhelmed. Here are five essential tips to make wedding planning manageable:
- Use a Wedding Planner or Coordinator: Delegating planning tasks can significantly reduce stress. A professional can keep everything on track and help with logistics.
- Create a Shared Calendar: Use apps like Google Calendar or wedding planning apps to coordinate with your partner, ensuring nothing is forgotten.
- Prioritize Your Must-Haves: Focus on what’s most important for both of you—whether it’s a particular venue, food, or entertainment—and compromise on less critical aspects.
- Hire Trusted Help: From florists to photographers, hire vendors you trust, and don’t be afraid to ask for recommendations from friends or family who’ve recently planned their own weddings.
- Delegate and Divide Tasks: Wedding planning doesn’t have to fall on one person. Divide the tasks based on your strengths—one of you may be good with spreadsheets, while the other may excel at design and aesthetics.
