The ultimate checklist to realise your wedding dream
A wedding is a lifetime story, hence it is important to consider every detail to ensure that your dream wedding becomes true. Most of the time it can be an exciting planning journey, but sometimes it can also be overwhelming. To ensure every aspect of your big day is perfect, here are a few ultimate checklists to help you stay organised and well-planned for your big day.
1. Set your budget
Budget is crucial when it comes to planning an event. Before taking the big step in planning for your big day, be sure to sit down with your partner to figure out the right amount that you’re willing to spend.
2. Choose your dream venue
Your wedding venue is the key to your wedding dream. The right location will set the right tone and ambiance for your special day. Whether you wish to hold in a grand ballroom, outdoor garden, or even a historical place like The Estate, it is important to choose a place that could reflect your style and accommodate your guest list.
3. Select your wedding theme/style
The overall vibe of your wedding will be up to your wedding theme and style. It will also eventually guide you in choosing your décor, theme color, attire, or even dress code. From classic, modern, and minimalist to fairy tale style, you can choose a theme that reflects your personality as a couple.
4. Create your guest list
It is important to jot down the list of everyone you wish to have during the celebration of your big day. Before coming out with the list, there are a few things that you need to consider before deciding on who you should invite:
- Must-invite vs optional invite
- Number of guests based on venue’s capacity
- Budget-friendly guest list (This is important as the budget will also change according to the number of guests)
- Ask for input from your family members
5. Secure your vendor
Choosing the right vendor plays a vital role in ensuring every detail of your special day will run smoothly. Vendors to pick include:
- Photographer/videographer
- Florist
- Caterer
- Decoration
- Make-up Artist
