10 tips for planning your wedding

Booking the venue, finding the dress, choosing the right provider... When you start preparing for your wedding, you can quickly feel overwhelmed. Don't panic, to organise your wedding, just go step by step and call on our wedding planner agency Sea, Bride & Sun.

Define your budget

This is the most important point when planning your wedding. However you finance your wedding, start by evaluating all the expenses and define your priorities... venue, caterer, wedding dress, activities... Only you can decide.

Setting priorities

The designer dress, the champagne at the cocktail party, the DJ, the photobooth, the generously flowered centrepieces, the drone shots of the ceremony? What is non-negotiable? In order to be able to arbitrate the expenses, it is essential to agree on the budgetary items that cannot be ignored and the bonuses.

Draw up a guest list

Before taking any steps, it is necessary to have an idea of the number of guests. Once the list has been drawn up, the decision is made: are the children invited? The great cousins? It is now time to agree on the exact number of guests. 

Take your time

It's important to plan ahead, but it's also important to take the time to think about it. There's no point in deciding in June on your dress and decoration for a wedding that won't take place until next summer or two years later. The new collections arrive in September, so take the time you need to decide!

Doing what you want to do

From the choice of colours, to the location of your reception, to the menu or your dress, don't let something that doesn't suit you be imposed on you. Whether it's your family or friends or some idea of convention, plan a wedding that's just like you.

Choose your theme

Plan your schedule for the day and make sure that everything is realistic and achievable. For example, allow at least two hours for beauty, hair and dressing, or at least a quarter of an hour extra to the original timing for travel when everything is not in one place.

Finding your dress and costume

We go on Pinterest and on the websites of the different brands of wedding dresses we like. That's a first step! We select the names of the brands and designers we like the most and make an appointment. For the suit, we go around the designers to choose a suit that looks like her.

Choosing your wedding rings

Whether it is a designer, haute couture or custom made, the choice of wedding rings is a very important and symbolic moment in the preparation of your wedding. The ring is the symbol of your union.

Letting go

Because no, in spite of all your good will, planning, charts and so on, there will inevitably be an unforeseen detail or a slightly cloudy sky... Remember that whatever happens, you will have put all your heart into it. The main thing is that you are getting married!
