When planning a wedding, a lot of bits are pieced together quickly and at the last minute. Naturally, things become pretty challenging as you begin to make sense of the numerous items that require your concentration.

Don’t lose your cool! All will come together. To help you out, here are some frequently forgotten small wedding details to note:

1. Dedicate Ample Time For Dress Adjustments

Wedding dress adjustments are somewhat more involving compared to adjusting a pair of trousers. You might have approximately five fittings before your wedding, all spaced out; therefore, based on your wedding timetable, make sure to dedicate ample time to get all the adjustments completed so that you can have the perfect fitting. 

As soon as you identify your dress, you’ll know immediately how many adjustments are needed. Visit your tailor soon to have a clear comprehension of how much time your adjustments will take and make arrangements accordingly.

2. Design A Wedding Website (Before Sending Out Invitations)

By creating a wedding website, your guests will have a primary point where they’ll get essential details about your wedding day. 

On your wedding website, you can add all the extra details that don’t fit on your formal wedding invitation, like the directions to the wedding location.

3. Wording

The wording used in your formal wedding invitation should communicate the fundamental details concerning your wedding while providing an idea about your theme and flair as a couple. The wordings should clarify all your vital wedding information. For instance, who’s hosting, who’s getting married, and the place where the wedding and reception will happen. Don’t forget to add in your invitation that other details, such as your wedding party information, is on your wedding site.

4.  Plan For Transport

Depending on where your wedding will happen, you might need several methods of transportation. Regular wedding transport circumstances comprise:

• Transportation from the venue to the photo sites and back 
• Transporting visitors to the venue and back to the reception grounds
• Transporting visitors back to their lodgings post-ceremony

You might not require all these forms of transport, but still, you’ll probably require at least one or two. Don’t overlook the need to plan for party vans, limousines, or drivers for vehicles. Additionally, you can offer to organize or make plans for cabs so nobody has to panic about drinking and driving. Lastly, remember to add all of these transport details on your invitation so visitors know how they’ll reach point A and B.

5. Get Gifts For Your Wedding Party

Your dedicated wedding party plays a significant part in making your day a success. It’s expected (while not compulsory) to offer small souvenirs of gratitude in the form of presents. 

Give your wedding party anything hands-on, for instance, pieces of jewelry or socks that they’ll wear during the wedding. Some couples prefer to give custom-made gifts to their wedding party. You’ll have several ideas for gifts, so ensure you place your order in time. It would be best if you had enough time to wrap all the gifts and stick a message of appreciation to go with them.

6. Coordinate Vendor Meals

While you’ll be enjoying your day, the sellers will be working away. Therefore, plan with your vendors about meals in advance. They can deliver packed snacks or anything similar so that everybody will stay nourished and joyful during the wedding ceremony.

7. Give Out The Vendor Tips

Planning a wedding requires carefully assessing your budget. If you had included tips for your vendors into your inclusive budget, then get the money or write the checks in advance and place everything in visibly marked envelopes for all of them (vendors that you’re yet to tip). Then, appoint a relative or one wedding party to issue them.

8. Ensure The Wedding Venue Has Disability Access

For your dream wedding, of course, you want the day to end well. Therefore, ensure your visitors will arrive in one piece and at ease. When you’re searching for a venue, inquire if all the locations have disability access. This will help you to make or reach an early resolution about where you’ll have your wedding, photo session, or both. Your dream setting ought to be one where all visitors of all age groups and abilities can access comfortably.

9. Have An Alternative Strategy In Case Of Bad Weather

If you opt for an open-air wedding, then nature will be your beautiful background. However, it’s also essential to consider the possibility of unseen dilemmas; there are several open-air wedding problems to consider. It would be best if you were equipped with an alternative strategy in the case of rains or a more severe or unpleasant event or situation. The site owners should be able to help you create an action plan.

10. You And Your Partner Should Be In The Food Preparation Guest Count

The chances are that you’ll be extremely busy on your wedding day, which means you and your partner need a lot of energy to get through the day. If you opted for a seated banquet, don’t fail to give the caterers a final count in advance, preferably months before the big day. This will ensure your food is prepared when you want it most.

11. Create A ‘Do Not Play’ Checklist For The Disc Jockey

If you decide on having a disc jockey at your wedding, you should have the freedom to dictate what type of music will be played. Before your big day, join your partner and create a ‘do not play’ checklist. Examine the list with your disc jockey and have confidence that you won’t dance or listen to any music that you don’t like at your dream wedding.

12. Organize For Your Transportation

While you’re organizing how your visitors and wedding party will be transported, don’t forget the two of you. Agree between the two of you about how you prefer to leave. 

A lot of couples prefer complete discretion to and from their different places. Additionally, others might decide to exit in expensive vehicles or a carriage.
