What things to do and what to avoid in wedding planning?

Planning for a destination wedding ceremony can be quite a job as you have to take care of almost everything on your own. Therefore, you have to choose between two options. You can hire one of the top destination wedding planners in Delhi and let them take care of organising the wedding ceremony. You can also follow the DIY mode and organise the wedding ceremony in an exotic location on your own. However, we have to warn you that organising such a big event in a completely strange city may not be your cup of tea if you don’t have any prior experience of doing something like this. The best way is to hire a reputable wedding event planner in Delhi and sit back and relax while the professionals do their jobs. This blog is for those who are determined to do everything on their own. To help you we have put together a list of dos and don’ts that you have to be careful about while planning your wedding ceremony.

Things to do while planning for a wedding ceremony

 

1). The first thing you must do when you are trying to organise a destination wedding is to know the place where the actual ceremony will take place. To do this you have to physically go to that place and check out the various venues, and vendors and compare their price lists. When you go to all these places and compare their prices, then you would be more confident about which place would be best suited for your needs, which you may not be able to decide by just looking at a photo.

2). The wedding event is quite a big affair and many things can go wrong while organising this huge event. Therefore, you must have a contingency plan ready to deal with any untoward incident that may happen during the wedding ceremony (rain, storm, heatwave et cetera) so that your marriage ceremony can go ahead smoothly.

3). You should never stray away from your budget or you would find yourself in a big financial jam later on.

Important don’ts for wedding planning

1). Don’t try to hire a wedding venue and the hotel where your guests will stay separately. This will help you to reduce your transportation cost significantly.

Planning a backyard budget wedding

If you want to plan a backyard budget wedding where only your family members and close friends will come, then you have to decide on a few things. You can hire wedding planners in Delhi and let them take care of all the logistics, but if you want to do it on your own, then carefully check this article for some important tips.

Photographer

Capturing the amazing moments of your wedding ceremony is extremely important. However, if you are on a tight budget, then instead of hiring one of the top wedding photographers in your city, you can give this job to your local photographer at a very economical price. Being a professional and with good professional gear, the local photographer will be able to do a much better job compared to your friends on their smartphones. However, before you hire the photographer, you must check their past work to find how good they are with their equipment.

Your Attire

Wedding attire cost several lakhs of rupees (if you have selected the dress from a major designer). However, for your budget wedding, we suggest that you should look for your attire from the local designers who would be more susceptible to a price reduction if you bargain properly. However, while trying to find a good bargain, don’t compromise on the quality. Some stores also offer bridal dresses at a rent. You can go there and choose your pick of bridal dress from top designers and at very good prices which you then return after the wedding.

Florals

To keep the prices of flowers down, you must go to your nearest wholesale flower market and buy the seasonal flowers in bulk to get a heavy discount. If you try to use exotic flowers or flowers which are not in season, then be ready to pay the extra buck for it.

Seating arrangement

For a good seating arrangement, you would need a lot of chairs and tables which you can easily get if you hire the services of a reputable wedding decorator in Delhi. Here also we suggest that you should choose your local decorator so that you can negotiate the price quite aggressively and bring it to the level of your budget. Make sure the seating arrangement is done in such a way that it fulfills all the government norms of social distancing.

The Mandap

Here you can take the suggestion of the decorator to build a cute looking Mandap where the actual religious ceremony associated with solemnizing your marriage will take place. You can use beautiful flowers, and bright coloured fabrics to design the Mandap.

These are just some of the points that you have to keep in mind when you are trying to organise a backyard budget wedding.

Tips for choosing your wedding venue

If you have the money, then you can hire the best wedding planners in Delhi to take care of all the logistics related to wedding planning. However, there are certain details that you have to go over yourself to ensure that everything runs smoothly. One such job is to find the right venue, wherein your marriage ceremony will take place. In this article, we will share with you how you can go ahead and choose the best venue for your marriage ceremony.

How big the venue is?

The first thing you should look at when you are going through a list of venues that are ideal for organising a wedding ceremony is its overall size and layout. If it has a hall that is too big for the crowd you are expecting, then it would not create the right ambiance you want. A big hall is not a good thing as all your guests will be spread out. On the other hand, if the venue is small, then everyone would be squished together. Furthermore, when you are talking to the wedding decorators in Delhi, they will also charge you according to the size of the venue and the complexity of design elements you want to put into it.

Do you want a plated meal or a buffet?

You also have to check whether the venue has an in-house caterer. If it has, then looks whether it has a big enough space, wherein your guests can sit together to have their meal. If you want to have a buffet, then make sure that there is a big lawn outside, wherein you can have an open space buffet setting for your guests.

Check the style of the venue

The style of the venue is also important. Many venues give the decorators the flexibility to completely change the venue as per your request. Make sure that the venue you choose allows the decorators to create the theme that you want with very little effort (it would help in reducing your budget!).

Logistics

If the marriage ceremony and the reception are going to take place in two different venues, then make sure that these two are close to one another so that it becomes easier both for you as well as your guests to go from one to another without much problem. Furthermore, make sure that there is adequate parking space available for your guests who are coming to the venue in their private vehicles.

These are just some of the important points you have to keep in mind when you are looking for the right marriage venue.
