When you are planning a wedding, there can come a time where you're ready to give up and just elope in Las Vegas. The good news is that you are not alone in feeling this way, and it can happen to many married couples-to-be. Why do you think the wedding planning market is such a big one? There is a lot to think about and organize when it comes to getting married, but how you deal with the challenges that you face will determine how smooth the whole process goes. One of the best things that you can do is to be proactive. There are so many tips and tricks that can make planning your wedding enjoyable and things that you can do to stop any awkward or stressful scenarios. Here are some common wedding planning dilemmas and what you could do about them.
Location, Location, Location
When you think about getting married, where do you see it happening? It could be a destination wedding abroad or perhaps in a totally different state. You might have your heart set on a cute church where your grandparents got married, with a reception at home afterwards. No matter what you choose, there will be some guests that will have to travel. This isn't something you need to stress too much about. If they can make it, then great. If they decide that they can't, then it is their decision. If you know you want certain people there, then having a more local wedding could help. You could also make things a little easier by looking into something like US Coachways charter bus rental options to move guests from the wedding venue to the reception if they are in different parts of town. Think about what will make it much less stressful for you, but remember that you won't be able to please everyone when it comes to the location.
Kids or Just Adults?
Deciding quite early on if you will have children there or not is something that you really need to think about. It can affect who can attend, strain the budget, and impact things that will be needed at the reception. So it is a good idea to take some time to think about what is important to you as a couple, on your wedding day. If you want to have the best of both worlds and want friends to be there who have children, then you could make a child-friendly area for them, or even think about getting sitters for children in a separate room. No matter what you choose, just make it clear to guests who exactly is or isn't invited.
Who Will Pay for What?
It is a good idea to talk about and decide who will be paying for what, and to decide early on. Do you have parents who have saved for this day since you were born? Are you happy to cover the costs between yourself and your fiancé? You shouldn't just presume, so it is best to have a sit-down conversation with both sets of parents as they may want to be included and help even if you want to pay for most of it yourself. Then you will know your budget and can get planning.
