The colour of your wedding dress also plays a vital role in your wedding.

STAY ORGANIZED WITH THE FINER WEDDING DETAILS

If you have a wedding planner, you should be all set in this department, but if you’re handling all the details yourself, it’s vital that you keep track of your checklists and timelines. Additionally, about two months before your wedding, some recommend sitting down with a couple of your most organized and detail-oriented friends and going through all your vendor contracts and noting deadlines and requirements. 

Then, start inputting these dates in your calendar with a reminder alert a few days before and on the day of. Make your day-of timeline with the help of your venue or catering team and emcee, review your venue layout, check-in with all of your vendors, and then make more lists.

 

SURROUND YOURSELF WITH POSITIVITY

 

Whether it’s your bridal party, your groom-to-be, close cousin, or mom, keep people who relax and calm you close by on your wedding day. Organizers also suggest finding buffers for the family members who are likely to bring you stress. You can also help your fiance with bucks party ideas, to keep that positive vibe before your wedding day. 

If there’s someone who you would like to have present while you are getting ready but fear they will cause you anxiety, ask someone else also to act as a buffer. All in all, just make sure that you are surrounded by the people who make you feel like the best version of you and you will feel confident with ease on your special day.

 

REMEMBER THAT YOU ARE BEAUTIFUL AND FEEL EVERY BIT OF CONTENTMENT IN YOUR WEDDING DRESS 

Your wedding day is not the day to squeeze into a gown or outfit of any kind that you feel self-conscious in. When choosing your wedding dress, comfort should be one of the biggest considerations. You should buy something that you feel amazing in today and not something you have aspirations of feeling good in once you’ve gotten in shape or lost weight closer to the wedding.

You can also rock a different colour of wedding dress. Rocking a colourful gown on the aisle is a statement already. So, make sure your glam squad knows the deal and can create a complimentary look that won’t clash with your dress. Or go completely makeup-free! Same goes for your bridal baubles. Stick with chic and classic pieces that don’t compete with all the drama going on in your dress.
