Real Advice from Real Couples
Navigating Wedding Planning Together
Planning a wedding is a monumental task, and amidst the abundance of advice from various sources, hearing from couples who’ve been there, done that can be incredibly valuable.
Recently, I reached out to some of my past clients and asked them a simple yet profound question:
“If you could give one piece of advice to a couple currently planning their wedding, what would it be?”
Their responses were insightful, heartfelt, and filled with wisdom gained from personal experience.
Here’s a compilation of their invaluable advice:
Embrace Individuality
“Don’t feel pressured to conform to traditional wedding norms. Take the time to reflect on what truly matters to you both as a couple and tailor your wedding accordingly. Whether it’s an intimate ceremony at city hall or a lavish celebration, make it authentically yours. Focus on what truly matters and let go of unnecessary expectations.” – • Julia & David
Make Every Moment Count
“Remember, your wedding is just one day. Focus on creating memories that will last far beyond the event itself. Celebrate your love and cherish the presence of your loved ones. It’s these moments of joy, laughter, and emotion that will truly stand the test of time.”- Olivia & Elijah
Choose Your Photographer Wisely
“Invest in a photographer whose work moves you on a deep emotional level. Don’t make the mistake of prioritizing price over connection and quality. Your wedding photos will capture the essence of your day and the love shared with your nearest and dearest. Choose a photographer who resonates with you and watch as they immortalize your special day with sincerity and joy.” – Ava & Xavier
Cherish Moments Together
“Take time to sneak away with your partner and embrace the fact that you’re married. Pause amidst the whirlwind of the day to breathe together, watch your loved ones from a distance, and revel in the joy surrounding you. Remember, it’s okay if things don’t go exactly as planned; unexpected moments often become the most cherished memories.” – Harper & Sebastian
Consider Eloping
“Eloping isn’t for everyone, but for us, it was the perfect choice. It allowed us to focus on the essence of our commitment without the distractions of a traditional wedding. We created unforgettable memories in a special place, stress-free and brimming with excitement. Consider eloping if intimacy and simplicity resonate with you.” – Ruby & Declan
