Are you getting ready to plan your gorgeous Arkansas wedding? Wedding planning can be one of the most fun and stressful times in life. Couples are budgeting and planning all of the little details of their wedding day. The list of decisions you have to make can seem never-ending and quite overwhelming! Consider the following planning tips to reduce anxiety leading up to your big day!

1. Talk to Your Fiancée

Ask your fiancée’ what is essential and make a list to compare. Discuss your vision for your wedding day, what you are most excited about, and what is not necessary.

2. What Makes an Impact

Some things will make a more significant impact than others on your wedding day. As you are setting your priorities, think about what your guests will remember and what you want to see in your photos. Some things can make it appear like you prioritized something while allowing you to pair it with other things, such as your wedding bouquet. Your bouquet will be in almost all of your photos, so it may be worth investing in yours even if flowers/florals are not at the top of your priority list.

3. Look at Your Budget

Be realistic with your wedding budget. Decide what you can afford, really want to, and can’t afford. Research typical costs online for wedding-related things in your area and go from there.

4. Go With Your Gut

If you just know in your heart, you have to have stunning florals, or you would always regret it, make it work. DO NOT GO INTO DEBT FOR IT! Just make the necessary sacrifices. I regularly have couples do this to make sure they get the photography coverage they need. In the long run, those significant priorities are 100% worth the investment of your time, money, and planning efforts.
