There’s so much to think about when you’re getting married — so I’ve put together a list of six essential things to remember on your wedding day, based on my experience as a professional wedding planner.
Planning your wedding may have taken months (or even years), but remember: not everything will go exactly as planned — and that’s okay! Sometimes, things happen that are completely out of anyone’s control. The most important thing is to relax, be present, and truly enjoy your day, creating as many beautiful memories as possible.
Your wedding day is about celebrating your love, no matter what happens. Still, a little preparation for the unexpected can help make sure everything runs as smoothly as possible. 💍
💡 Top Wedding Day Tips for Brides
1. Take a quiet moment before the day begins
Before the excitement fully sets in, take a few minutes to pause and reflect.
There will be so much happening — people to talk to, emotions to feel, and moments to cherish. Center yourself, breathe, and take in the meaning of what’s about to happen.
And once the celebration begins, enjoy every single moment — it’s true what they say: time flies when you’re having fun!
2. Eat breakfast — and remember to breathe!
Start your day with a good breakfast.
It’s completely normal to feel a little nervous, but a calm morning sets the tone for the rest of the day. Take a few deep breaths, enjoy your breakfast, and remind yourself — you’ve got this!
3. Assign someone to remind you to drink water and eat
No one wants to feel dizzy, tired, or dehydrated during their wedding.
Ask someone from your bridal party to be your “hydration helper.” With so much happening, it’s easy to forget the basics — so having someone remind you to eat and stay hydrated makes all the difference.
4. Don’t forget your bridal emergency kit
Make sure your maid of honor, mother, or bridesmaid keeps an eye on your bridal essentials bag.
Here’s what I recommend packing: Perfume, mints, painkillers, deodorant, chewing gum, lip gloss, lipstick, and a few plasters. You’ll be so glad you have them when you need a quick refresh!
5. Bring comfortable shoes for photos and dancing
Don’t let sore feet ruin your evening! 👠
If your wedding shoes are more stylish than comfortable, pack a second pair of flats or sneakers for your photos and the dance floor. Your feet (and your smile) will thank you later!
6. Last but not least — enjoy every moment!
Your wedding day will pass by in the blink of an eye.
So be present, laugh often, and savor every precious second of this once-in-a-lifetime day. 💕
I hope these tips help you feel calm, prepared, and ready to fully enjoy your big day. Now — have fun choosing the perfect wedding season and start your journey to “I do!” ✨
With love, Christin 💖
