First off—congratulations! 🎉 Getting engaged is such an exciting milestone. Now comes the fun part: planning a wedding that truly reflects you and your partner.
Here’s a roadmap to help you get started:
1. Celebrate & Soak It In
Take time to enjoy the moment before diving into planning. Share the news with loved ones, throw an engagement party (if you want!), and bask in the excitement.
2. Define Your Vision
- What kind of wedding feels most "you"? Big or small? Indoors or outdoors? Traditional or unique?
- Consider themes, colours, and any must-have elements.
- Think about personal touches—symbolic rituals, storytelling, or non-traditional vows.
3. Set a Budget
Decide what matters most and allocate funds accordingly. Whether it’s the venue, the food, or the entertainment, knowing your priorities will help.
4. Choose a Celebrant (or Officiant)
Since you're drawn to personalized ceremonies, a celebrant might be perfect! They craft bespoke ceremonies infused with symbolic meaning and emotional depth.
5. Lock in the Venue & Date
Your venue choice impacts everything—guest count, style, and overall vibe. Secure a date and venue early!
6. Start Assembling Your Team
- Photographer/videographer
- Florist
- Caterer
- Planner (if needed)
- Celebrant (or officiant)
- Musician or DJ
7. Craft Your Ceremony
This is where the magic happens—writing vows, choosing rituals, and designing the flow of your wedding day.
8. Plan the Details
- Dress/suit shopping
- Invitations
- Decor
- Guest accommodations
- Wedding day timeline
9. Enjoy the Journey
Planning can feel overwhelming, but try to embrace the process. Have fun with tastings, fittings, and brainstorming ideas—it’s all part of the adventure!
