Wedding are absolutely wonderful affairs, a time to celebrate the union of a man and woman, to death us do part and all that goes with matrimony, and if you are planning your own wedding party, there is much to do.
In this short article, we offer a few top tips on wedding party planning to ensure that your special day is remembered for all the right reasons.
- Made to measure suits – You can take advantage of affordable bespoke tailoring services in Sydney and have your suit created by a top-rated tailor. It is very much a myth that bespoke suits are more expensive than off the peg and let’s not forget that you can wear the suit on many occasions, so you get good value for money.
- Create a guest list – Sit down with your partner and create a list of guests that you both wish to invite, then after some consideration, decide on a final number, as this will determine your budget needs. There may be some disagreements regarding who you invite, so smooth those over and you should be left with a firm guest list, then you can then look for a venue.
- Setting a budget – It is important that you have a firm figure in mind when you approach a venue and hopefully, the venue can work to your budget. There are variables, such as whether you deposit an amount behind the bar for drinks or you ask guests to pay for their drinks. There would also be options for live entertainment, with different prices; typically, a resident DJ would be cheaper than a 4-piece band, so you can cut costs where necessary. Here are a few ways to make your wedding aesthetically perfect.
- Choosing a venue – If you are planning a themed wedding, an established venue such as a hotel or resort is definitely the best choice, as they would be able to incorporate your theme. Such a venue would assign you an event manager, a person who works with you to provide you with everything you need. It makes planning the wedding that much easier if the venue is experienced at hosting weddings, which is why so many couples go this route.
- Overnight stays – Some of your guests would prefer an overnight stay rather than driving home, so choose a resort with accommodation, which solves the problem. Then there are the unexpected situations when a guest drinks more than they should, which does happen.
- Hire a wedding videographer – Of course, you want a photographer to take still images, which a videographer can do, while also taking a lot of video footage that they can edit to create a stunning final cut for you both to cherish. You can also have the film put on a printed DVD and send it to all the guest, something they will warmly appreciate.
Getting married isn’t something you do every day and we hope that this article helps you plan the perfect wedding party.
