You're engaged! Time to start practicing 'Yes, dear' for when the wedding planning begins and the budget goes out the window

You're engaged! Time to start practising saying "Yes, dear" for when the wedding planning begins and the budget goes out the window.

There are so many things to think about when it comes to planning a wedding. From the guest list to the seating plan, the food, the drinks, the music, the decorations, and the honeymoon—it can be overwhelming. But don't worry, I'm here to help! Here are some tips to keep in mind as you start planning your big day:

Define Your Budget

Before you start planning anything, it's important to sit down with your partner and discuss your budget. Weddings can be expensive, and costs can quickly add up. Decide how much you want to spend overall and allocate your budget accordingly. This will help you make decisions about where to splurge and where to save.

Prioritise What's Important to You

Not everything will fall within your budget, so it's essential to prioritise. Do you want a live band or a DJ? Are flowers important to you, or would you prefer to spend more on food? By prioritising what's important to you, you can ensure that your budget is spent on the things that matter most to you.

Get Organised

Create a wedding planning binder or use an online planning tool to stay organised. Keep track of your budget, vendor information, inspiration, and to-do lists. This will help you stay on top of everything and ensure nothing is forgotten.

Delegate Tasks

Don't try to do everything yourself. Delegate tasks to your wedding party, family, or hire a wedding planner if you can. This will take some of the pressure off and allow you to enjoy the planning process.

Remember the Reason for the Celebration

It's easy to get caught up in the details, but remember what's truly important—celebrating your love and commitment to each other. At the end of the day, that's all that matters.

So, take a deep breath, say "Yes, dear" to your partner's requests, and enjoy the journey towards your dream wedding. Congratulations, and best of luck with all the planning!

There are two ways to get jailed for life. One is to commit a bad crime and the second is to get hitched

Marriage is a big step, and it's not always easy. But it's worth it to spend your life with your best friend. Here's to many years of love, laughter, and joy as you build a life together.

They say marriage is like a deck of cards: in the beginning, all you need is two hearts and a diamond. But as time goes on, you'll wish you had a club and a spade to fix the problems that come up! Jokes aside, marriage is a beautiful journey, and I wish you both the best as you start this new chapter.

Congratulations on taking the plunge! Marriage is a wild ride, but it's a lot more fun when you find someone you want to annoy for the rest of your life. Here's to many adventures and lifelong happiness.

They say the key to a successful marriage is finding the right person. But I think it's more about being the right person—loving, supportive, and always there for your partner through thick and thin. I know you two will build a wonderful life together because you already embody those qualities. Congratulations on finding each other!
