1.Choose An Incredible Venue

Just like choosing your life-partner, choosing a venue is something that needs careful consideration. You wouldn’t rush into marriage, so there’s no need to rush into choosing a venue. You should choose somewhere that’s warm and spacious, with ample natural light for the best effect. Keep in mind that your venue should also resonate with your chosen theme for the wedding. But the most crucial thing to consider is the time of year you’ll be having your wedding – you’ll have to think twice about an outdoor venue for a winter wedding! But once you’ve found the perfect venue, you’ll be able to have gorgeous wedding day photos that you’ll love at first sight!

2. Walk down the aisle in style

There’s melodic music playing in the background, the love of your life is at the altar waiting for you as you walk down the aisle and everyone’s eyes turn to face you. If you want to make a grand entrance, you’re going to need a magnificent dress! Most brides will agree that choosing their wedding day outfit is surely the best part of getting married, besides the I do’s, of course! You’ll want to find a dress that is stunning but at the same time comfortable enough for you to spend a few hours in. Whether you want to go for a dramatic princess gown that will turn heads or a fitted fishtail number for a sophisticated look, there are plenty of gowns to choose from – so you’ll have no problem finding a dress that suits your wedding style that you’ll fall in love with!

3. Let them eat cake

The wedding cake is a huge focal point for any wedding, it is often one of the first things people notice during the reception, and as the reception draws to a close your guests will find themselves slowly orbiting towards it! The cake acts as both a sugary treat and as a spectacular decoration piece. And like any good decoration piece, it has to resonate with the rest of your theme – that means having the right style of cake with the right colour scheme. Nowadays there’s a swathe of different types of cakes available, from elevated naked cakes to magnificent tall tier cakes. So you’re sure to find something that tickles your sweet tooth!

4. Splurge on Dazzling Lighting

It’s your wedding day. All eyes will be on you on your wedding day no matter what, but there are a few ways to ensure your ceremony entrance is bold and regal. Having the right lighting is crucial in creating a sensational atmosphere. Splurging on some good lighting will not only provide a gorgeous ambience but will also ensure that your photographers capture every stunning moment in the perfect light!

5. End your Wedding with a Bang

Ending your night on a high note is a sure way to create an unforgettable night! There isn’t a singular hard and fast rule for ending your wedding – it all comes down to your personal taste and flair. Whether that means moving your celebrations to a smaller venue to host an incredible afterparty or hiring a professional entertainer to keep your guests’ spirits high. Or you might want to literally end your night with a bang…fireworks anyone? The choice is yours, after all, this is your big day!
