Wedding planning know fairly well:
1, understand the general process of wedding preparation.
If you want to create a dream wedding banquet, you must first understand the general process of the wedding, and be aware of it and be busy without chaos. Whether it is a two-stage wedding with separate ceremony and dinner, or a wedding with a combination of ceremony and wedding banquet adopted by most couples in China at present, we should pay attention to the process and key points of wedding preparation.
The first thing to determine is the wedding budget. Choose the most suitable venue within this amount, then determine the color of the wedding, create an atmosphere with flowers and wedding gadgets, and finally add personalized elements to the wedding. This operation process is almost the guarantee for the success of all classic wedding banquet templates.
2, save wedding expenses and reasonable expenses.
The key to spending wedding planning funds reasonably is to have a well-thought-out plan, so that all the funds can be spent in the plan and the finances can be orderly. This means that you should predict the quantity, amount and cost of spare parts you may need. In order to help you make an estimate, here we have specially listed a list of major wedding expenses, including the estimated percentage of each item. Of course, this list can be modified according to your needs. If you are interested in hiring a wedding consultant, the fee is usually part of your total wedding budget (10-20%, depending on her workload). Remember to put this fee at the top of the total budget. One last suggestion: Most weddings will exceed the budget by about 10%. Remember to be prepared in advance!
3. Customize special wedding prints
Customizing special printed matter for a wedding is a compulsory course for a perfect wedding. Set aside enough budget for them, and you will certainly earn enough face. First of all, the main colors of these prints are determined according to the wedding colors. It should be noted that everything is best in the same color system, otherwise it is difficult to achieve the effect of freshness and integration. Commonly used wedding stamps include wedding invitations, seat cards, greeting cards, special gift bags, gift boxes and so on.
4. Have your own wedding master plan.
The responsibility of the chief planner is to plan, allocate and coordinate the work of each group; Responsible for recording the entry and exit accounts of the whole marriage preparation process; And be responsible for unified payment, such as settlement with the hotel after the wedding banquet. So you need to find a very capable candidate for this position, preferably your brother and sister, with financial experience is preferred. He was the commander at the wedding. He can find problems in time and help to deal with and coordinate them. If you want to store more snacks, you must find a great master planner. Of course, you can also divide this position into two parts: "finance" and "overall planning", invite two friends to take this position together, or invite people from the wedding company to do the "overall planning" part.
5. Find five suitable professionals.
Are there any suitable candidates for cake maker, sound recorder, photographer, florist and makeup artist? These professionals can help you better handle the details of the wedding reception. They can not only give you professional advice, but also help you realize your dream of a perfect wedding reception.
6. Communicate with the host
According to the survey, most couples have only one interview with the host before the formal wedding. This is risky, because the quality of his hosting directly affects the success of the wedding. Don't let the stereotyped host lines belittle the wedding style. If you want to have a unique wedding, you should pay more attention to contact with him. Tell the host what you want him to know and what you don't want him to mention at the wedding. You can ask for more games or fewer limited paragraphs; Leave more time for parents and witnesses, or ask yourself less "brain teasers"; Arrange more friends to tell interesting stories about you, or waste less red tape. An experienced host will know what is popular and what can be discarded immediately after communicating with you, and he will also give you some suggestions.
7. determine the best man and maid of honor
The best man and bridesmaid are the most important staff at the wedding, and they should be the most trustworthy friends of the couple. At the wedding, the best man and the maid of honor have to do everything, so please is very important to people. Legend has it that the best man and bridesmaid will be the next lucky ones to get married, so it is best to choose unmarried friends to play this role. At the wedding, bridesmaids have a lot of things to do. Always pay attention to your clothes, hairstyle and makeup, because after all, there are few opportunities to dress like this, and most brides will not get used to it. Without flower girl and Huan Tong, she will help you with that part of the work. When toasting, she should also pay attention to the details such as which table she has not been to. If the wedding dress is accidentally torn, friends who can sew can help you tide over the difficulties quickly. Our suggestions are: ask friends who can make up to help you save the cost of makeup artists; Don't invite friends who don't get along well to be your bridesmaids at the same time, but ask one of them to be the keynote speaker; In addition, at many weddings, the best man and bridesmaid need to be with the couple all the time, but it is better to arrange a seat for them. After all, they won't be so excited as you to forget fatigue. If you are looking for some groomsmen, you'd better consider their height. Finally, I want to remind you that the more bridesmaids and groomsmen there are, the greater the possibility of chaos.
8. Matters needing attention in booking a banquet
When booking a hotel banquet, the question you need to ask is: What wedding packages does the hotel offer? What is the menu? Are there any preferential measures? Do you offer free drinks and side dishes? Or can I bring my own drinks? When will the venue be arranged, including how long it will take? How much do you charge for overtime? Who is the on-site coordinator? How to pay the advance payment? How about canceling this clause?
Unique creativity reveals individuality
9. Do a wedding rehearsal.
If you are not familiar with the wedding process, it is particularly necessary to rehearse with the wedding consultant or host. Be clear about the process, location and various precautions, so as to be more relaxed at the wedding.
Rehearsal is not a form. Don't end it hastily. You must rehearse the whole process. This is the only day in my life, and it is worthwhile to spend more time. If conditions permit, you'd better put on a dress and rehearse, so that you will be much more skilled in turning and bowing.
10, unique wedding logo design
The wedding Logo is the image representative of the wedding, and it is a very trendy concept. Designing your own wedding Logo is the easiest way to deepen your impression of the wedding. This Logo can be your photo and name, or it can be specially designed. If you have seen it in Egypt, it is represented by the pyramids. If he proposes at the seaside, use shells or seagulls as signs; Or just a small heart-shaped design doesn't need to be too prominent or too eye-catching, as long as it is meaningful to you. After all, this is a sign that belongs only to the two of you.
1 1. Make a special wedding webpage.
Making your own wedding website doesn't need to be too complicated, just one or two pages. By marking the website address on the wedding invitation, guests can keep abreast of the wedding activities, who will attend the wedding and leave messages on the website. Of course, if necessary, you can arrange a live webcast of the wedding, so that friends who are far away or inconvenient to attend the wedding can share your happiness.
12, write your own wedding vows.
Unlike most people's imagination, wedding vows don't have to be strictly scripted. In addition to serious recitation, you can also add some of your own elements. Our suggestion is to add your acquaintance and love to the oath, because people are more willing to hear your love story than the lengthy marriage certificate at the wedding. Share these wonderful love stories with everyone and make your wedding vows personalized enough. Of course, some projected photos will make the effect more perfect when reading.
13 to make the invitation more interesting.
Do you want to fully interest the guests before the wedding reception begins? Then we must work hard on the invitation. Print a crossword puzzle about you at the back of the invitation, and the person who can fill it out correctly will get a grand prize! The biggest advantage of working hard on the invitation letter is that, like the propaganda film of a movie, the effect is sometimes greater than the movie itself.
14, the ring holder brought the climax of the ceremony.
It's time to exchange rings Are you still waiting for the bridesmaids to rummage in their pockets? Your luxurious wedding should have a beautiful ring holder, whether you made it yourself or bought it at a wedding dress shop. Such a small wedding prop can make the ceremony more formal. In recent years, most of the popular ring holders are satin and lace, and the design is relatively simple.
15, making audio attendance book
After the sign-in book gradually evolved into a gift book, the relationship between guests and newcomers also faded a lot. It is best to make a dynamic attendance book. You can put up a camera in front of the check-in desk (this is not difficult now) and let the guests say their blessings to it. At the wedding banquet, it can be played to the guests through the big screen or projection equipment, and finally made into a CD, which can be saved with the wedding CD.
