Although the New Year is well and
truly under way it’s not too late to make some New Year’s Resolutions.
Here are our top 5 “Wedding
Resolutions” every bride should consider for 2018.
1.
I Will Get Organized...with a Wedding To-Do List
There are so many things involved in putting together a wedding, so it's
important to make sure you've got your act together. Create a ‘master list’ of things to do, take
a step back and figure out when they need to be done and which ones you can
delegate to others. This will help you manage your time and keep you from
feeling overwhelmed. Once you start crossing things off that list, you'll feel
a whole lot better about everything.
2.
I will not be afraid to ask for help
When it comes to planning your own wedding, of course you want to be in
control but sometimes you have got to trust and hand stuff over. Delegate
planning tasks to your helpful hubby-to-be (after all it is his wedding too),
and use your bridesmaids’ skills to their full potential. After all, what are
bridesmaids for? When people genuinely
ask “is there anything I can do to help?” check your ‘master list’ and give
them something to do.
3.
I will trust my wedding suppliers
Have faith! You have chosen and
hired some fantastic suppliers to do a professional job – let them do it. Communicate well and trust that they will do
a great job, you do not need to take on extra stresses.
4.
I will make time for no-planning time
Of course you want your big day to be perfect but give yourself a break!
Make sure to schedule in a regular date night with your fiancé so that the only
relationship you have is not just between you and your wedding planning book.
5.
I will Help Others...with a Charitable Wedding
What better way to celebrate your love than to share it with everyone
else? It doesn't take much to make a difference in the world and there are so
many ways you can do it. Interested in saving the environment? Print your
invitations on recycled paper or hire a stationer that uses ethically sourced
products. If you are passionate about a particular charity, why not give
wedding favours that benefit your favourite organisation. Don't want to be
wasteful? Why not donate your flowers to a hospital or care home after the big
day. With a little creativity and thought, your special day will have a lasting
effect for a very long time.
6. But …… above all ……
I will not become a bridezilla
Last but certainly not least, spare yourself, your husband, your family
and your friends and don’t become a bridezilla. Following the above resolutions
will help. Be calm, be positive, be happy!
