Podcast: Wedding Planning 101
Reduce the Stress
Amy Schwartz and Tara Grubb are guests to talk about solid planning, taking a step back, and showing boudoir videos to grandma.
The average time frame to plan a wedding is 12-18 months, which gives couples plenty of time to plan and prepare. It also results in a long period of potential stress and arguments about things like money and decorations. The average wedding cost is in the neighborhood of $30K, which adds to the money stress.
Amy and Tara discuss ways to methodically attack the planning process. Here is how they recommend approaching wedding planning:
- Start by taking a moment to breathe, and enjoy the new engagement. Live in the moment, and give the wedding planning a chance to happen when it is time to start.
- Have the up-front conversations regarding thoughts and visions prior to even thinking about booking vendors. Understand that you are a couple planning a wedding together and there is another perspective to consider. Keep in mind that is how marriage will be as well.
- Get the money conversation out of the way. Set a good budget you can both stick to and execute.
Enjoy It
But the duo also recommends keeping the goal in perspective. You are getting married. This is your wedding day, have fun, and take it all in. Then take the rest of your married life to remember taking the step into eternal love. And also remember how fun it was planning the party to celebrate it.
