1. Make Planning Dates a Thing

Planning can quickly take over your life if you don’t have a plan. Book time together for “planning dates.” These don’t have to be marathon planning sessions—they can be shorter, regular meetups at their favorite cafe or a cozy night at home with snacks and a wedding mood board. Each date can focus on one aspect (like colors or flower designs), so they stay focused and avoid burnout. You may find one monthly planning date works to get started and you maybe have them more frequently as you need to finalize more details.

2. Keep a “Yes Day” for Fun Choices 

Designate one day for saying “yes” to playful wedding ideas you’ve been curious about. You might try cake flavours and try something new, or explore unique venues that you’ve always been curious about. Go ring shopping and try ona bunch of fun styles, or or visit a flower shop and look at the different flowers in person to consider. Don’t gorget to look and try things that you don’t aways think about, you never know what will interest you! This keeps things light and could even inspire creative elements they hadn’t considered.

3. Delegate and Celebrate 

There will be a lot of tasks to tackle when planning a wedding. A helpful way to keep track is work off of a check list and delegate tasks. You also can and should lean on your professional vendors. Ask questions, and use their expertise and knowledge to make the right decisions. If you want to include family and friends you can find fun ways to involve them. Spend an afternoon watching a fun movie while you fold place cards, or host a DIY night if you plan to make anything yourself. Each completed task feels like a small victory to celebrate!

Extra Tip: If you need more guidance look at using a wedding planner, from full planning to wedding day coordination you can find a level of planning support that fits your needs and budget. Check out our Services if you are interested!

5. Take Wedding-Free Days

You most likely will spend the better part of a year planning your wedding, like all things you need a breather and time not thinking and working on the wedding. Schedule days when they don’t discuss the wedding at all. These can be date nights or days spent doing things you love as a couple. The break keeps you refreshed and grounded in their relationship.
