To all our dear brides and grooms,
We have been in contact with so many of our clients who are caught up in a range of emotion due to the postponement of their special day. Whether you are feeling anxious, sadness, grief, frustration- this is all totally to be expected, especially if your wedding was due to take place during the lockdown period.
But it is important to remember, all is not lost, and love is most certainly not cancelled, and we, your dedicated team of planners are here for you and it is important to stay positive and focused on the all the joys in your life.
Easier said than done right?
Don’t worry- we have complied a Covid-19 Wedding checklist to help keep you going. So what can you do to stay motivated- check out our suggested tips below:
-
Keep planning- our minds and imagination have not been locked down, so keep checking our instagram for mood boards and other inspiration.
-
Choosing your song lists can be a lengthy process, so get those playlists out and work out your favourites.
-
Send out a postponement letter to keep your guests informed. There are various free/low cost options available on sites like Paperless Post, Minted and many more.
-
Use this time to contact your vendors like photographers and videographers. Viewing various portfolios takes time, so use these quieter days to do your research. View their websites and other social media platforms, compare costs and extras they include.
-
Why not spend an evening together writing your vows. They set the framework for your marriage so it’s important to make them perfect
