Finally it is one month before the wedding and you can see that special date coming closer and closer. Make sure all your wedding planning is up to speed!
Wedding Stationery
The wedding invitations will have been sent out by now and RSVPs should be arriving back. Now is the time to begin your seating plan. Begin by putting a rough draft together. If you are making your own escort cards or place names for the tables , get started! Finalise the details for ceremony booklets.
Music
Have you thought about your first dance? Decide on a song that you are both happy and comfortable with and speak to your band about it. Compile a list of music for the DJ of your preferences.
Beauty Regime
Try to exercise, get some fresh air and eat properly. Stress may start to kick in at this stage so give yourself some “you” time by going for a walk on the beach, meeting a friend for a coffee or going for a massage!
Double check that all your beauty appointments are scheduled correctly leading up to the wedding. Do trial of your hair and makeup.
Dress Fittings
Dress fittings should be well under way and you should have a completion day for your own dress. Check on fittings for bridesmaids and groomsmen.
Gifts
Purchase gifts for bridesmaids, groomsmen, page boys and flower girls.
Honeymoon
Confirm honeymoon details and reservations. Make a list of what you need to pack.
Venue
Arrange a final meeting to confirm meal details, final numbers and final details.
Delegate
There will be lots of little tasks that your bridesmaids and groomsmen can help you both with so make sure you are delegating!
After all of the above, you can sit back, relax, and… look forward to getting married!
