Okay, so with everything that’s been going on recently, planning a wedding might suddenly seem a bit insignificant. But you couldn’t be more wrong – Forward thinking, positivity and something wonderful to aim for is exactly what you need right now! And with most of us having extra time on our hands, it’s the perfect opportunity to get stuck into some serious research…
So, the first thing you would probably do after deciding on a date is look at where you want to hold you big day. Now, as viewing prospective venues is out of the question right now, you can still look into investigating on-line to get a short list in place.
Start with the obvious by Googling wedding venues in the area of your choice and then spend some time investigating the venue’s website and social media pages. You are sure to find loads of photos, read what type of feedback past customers have given, and most of them will have a downloadable brochure with package details and prices. Take into consideration how many guests you want to invite and how easy it will be for guests to travel to the venue. If you want photos outside, check what space is available and also if they have an alternative location inside in the case of bad weather. Choose your favourite venue options, taking your budget into consideration, and print out any info if you can.
Have some fun and create a mood board…Search for ideas of different styles of weddings, put together your favourite colour palettes, floral options, cakes, table decorations and anything else you can find. Then for wedding dress or suit designs that catch your eye…
By this stage, we hope you will be starting to feel more positive and motivated about one of the best days of your life. It might seem distant, but the doom and gloom of the current crisis will lift and when it does, you will be prepped and ready to go!
