A wedding is probably one of the biggest events you'll ever have to organise in your life. I do not blame you for feeling overwhelmed by the task! 😓😓😓
From my own wedding planning experience, here are 3 quick tips on keeping organised during this period:
1️⃣ Creating a rough plan, and the earlier the better, will help you and your partner get a rough picture of when you'll need to do what. You can designate mini goals to specific months, and get a guidance timeline going. Even if you actually realise your initial plan was WAY off, and you go in a totally different direction - this will give you a starting point. The hardest part is often not knowing where to start so this will give you that!
2️⃣ Your wedding is most likely going to have a lot of moving parts; different parties involved; and lots of people. It truly does take a village! You're going to be getting receipts, deposit slips, quotes, samples from left right and centre. If you keep these all in the one place - a wedding box, or a physical or digital folder - it's going to be a lot easier to find everything when you need it.
3️⃣ All those moving parts are going to need to work together, and the smoothness of this will depend on how you communicate with everyone. Keep those who need to know in the loop; confirm appointments, dates, prices, etc in writing preferably; if plans change/can't be done update those relevant people ASAP and if you need help, ask. If the right people know the wrong information, your wedding planning organisation can quickly fall apart!
