1. Remember that you can't please everybody - Be gentle to yourselves and remember the most important reason why you are getting married. Nothing else matters.
2. Include your partner as much as you can - From selecting your invitations, choosing a special song for your first dance, tasting cakes, planning your honeymoon or doing gift registry, it is important to do as much as you can together.
3. Decide if you want (and can afford) to hire a wedding planner - This is a very important first step.
4. Allow as much time as you can to plan your wedding - Making a guest list, Interviewing vendors/planners, allowing extra time to select and print your invitations/thank you's etc., shopping for the perfect wedding attire, writing special vows, practicing a first dance etc., all of this and more will be easy if you're not in a rush.
5. Try and bring both families together - In a way, it's their special day to. Try and give them special attention so they feel the love that you share together.
6. Select a color theme - Choosing two or three colors and sticking to them will set the tone and help you coordinate your flowers, linens, chairs, ribbons, favors, menu cards and all sorts of items.
7. Do your research - Find out things like, what flowers are readily available within your color scheme and how formal of an event you both want makes things so much easier.
8. Write everything down and keep an organized binder - this will help you to effectively communicate your wedding wishes and help you keep track of all the details to your special day.
9. Arrange for a rehearsal if you have more than two attendants on each side - this will make things go a lot more smoothly on your wedding day.
10: Don't let any unexpected problems ruin your day.
