7 steps to organize a perfect wedding

How many of us have been dreaming about our wedding day since we were kids?  We, wedding planners of Puglia di Miele, think about it since we wore diapers!

Well, if you have finally decided to get married and take the big step, now is the time to take action!

But how to plan a perfect wedding?  We have summarized everything you need to do in 7 steps to get to the wedding day without having a nervous breakdown! 

1. The check-list 

First thing to do: get an agenda to write a check-list!
Take some time to sit down and make an exhaustive list of things to do.  

Choose the date and set a budget: try to estimate how much you will spend for each supplier. In addition, it is VERY important to calculate the time required for each activity.

Whenever you manage to program one of your points in the list, check it with a nice X. This will help you to have a clearly visible picture on the progress of the organization.

Choose who will be your wedding witnesses, your bridesmaids and who will actively participate in the ceremony.

Take immediate care of the necessary documents for the wedding. If you get married in church, start your pre-wedding class and think about your wedding rings! 

2. The theme of marriage 

Choose a theme for your wedding. Do not underestimate this stage: this is necessary to ensure that all the wedding details are harmonious. 

It does not necessarily have to be an imaginative theme; you can also choose a classic style, but what matters most is to follow the leading thread at every step of the organization.

Of course, we advise you to choose a theme that reflects your personality and to watch out of the box to make your wedding unforgettable!

We, of course, recommend a wedding in perfect Apulian style, with rites, traditions and food of our beautiful Puglia!

3. The location

At this point you will have decided whether to organize a civil or religious wedding, in the countryside or in the city, in summer or winter. 

IMMEDIATELY you just have to choose the ceremony and the banquet location and that for the banquet, which sometimes coincide!

You may have noticed our rush to choose the wedding location, often getting  the favorite place for the chosen date is very difficult! If you want to get married on Saturday or Friday in the spring and summer months, you have to be faster.  Wedding Planner’s words 😉.

Take a couple of months to find out, ask for and compare location quotes and visit them personally. Also try the menus and choose according to your culinary preferences! 

4. Invitations and arrangements

When we talk about setting up we refer to many aspects of your wedding: church and bouquet flowers, centerpieces, location’s decoration, “confetti” and wedding favours, and the tableau mariage. 

Regarding wedding invitations, we recommend you to read our article in our blog!

We suggest you to rely on the help of a graphic designer or a printer who takes care of everything you need to print. 

5. The clothes and the photographer

The wedding dress choice is the moment that many women dream, and often not even men regret! 

Rely exclusively on your personal taste, but never forget to respect the theme of wedding!

We advise the bride to choose the hairdresser for the hairstyle and the make-up artist for her makeup.

Also, choose the photographer and bargain on the price! Again, you can choose according your photographic style that you like the most!  

6. The car and the honeymoon

It’s time to choose the car. Ask about the rental or steal it from your friend, “vintage car owner!”

We also suggest you to open a wedding list for your honeymoon: super necessary to relax after so many months of stress! 

7. The entertainment

At this point we should be there, it’s almost all ready but you just need a “detail”: the entertainment!  Do not underestimate the fun for your wedding, and we aren’t only referring to children’s animation, but to the music to better celebrate the “idyll of your love!”

Choose a band, an orchestra, a dj or various artists to make perfect your wedding! If you are looking for useful ideas, read our wedding entertainment tips!

In short, there are so many things to think about to make the wedding go smoothly!  Have you ever thought of getting help from who knows?

Choose wedding planners, “better if they are three volcanic women!” Entrusting all these tasks to experts will allow you to concentrate only on the most pleasant aspects of wedding planning in complete serenity!
