The guest list: the starting point of wedding planning

The very first step in organizing your wedding is to create a guest list. By having in mind the approximate number of guests, it becomes possible to:

  • choose the most suitable ceremony location,
  • plan the catering budget,
  • plan the budget for creating the announcements,
  • consider the various accommodation solutions to offer your guests.

It is not so easy to establish the list of your guests! In addition, it can give rise to disagreements with your partner. You will also have to think about consulting your parents: they certainly want to invite some friends to this big party. Also, take the time necessary to arrive at a list of guests that suits everyone concerned. Once this crucial step has been completed, you can move on to the next steps.

Defining the date and location of the wedding: an essential step

Good to know:  it is best to organize your wedding at least 6 months in advance, to ensure the presence of as many guests as possible.

Go to the town hall where you want to celebrate your union, to request a marriage file. Once it is completed and submitted, you will be asked to choose a date, in agreement with the mayor of your town. If you also want to get married in church, then consult the person responsible for your diocese. Once the date of your wedding is known and set, you should choose the location of the ceremony. To do this, take into account the number of guests, but also your budget!

Please note:  the most popular locations are usually booked months or even years in advance.

Send the invitations, and do it in advance!

Do you know the date of your wedding, the location of the ceremony and the reception? In this case, it is the ideal time to send the invitations to your guests. 

Our advice:  don’t delay in sending your invitations. It is best to notify your guests in advance, to be sure that everyone will be able to attend this big event.

Finding service providers is another step not to be overlooked

It’s obvious: for your wedding,  the presence of a caterer is necessary. Choose a service provider who takes care of everything, from the aperitif to the dessert, including the drinks. In addition, to liven up your wedding, you certainly want to call on a DJ or a music group. Word of mouth is a good solution to find the ideal service provider.  Our tip:  choose a versatile professional, capable of adapting to the atmosphere you are looking for.

Decorating: don’t leave it to the last minute!

Decorating is an integral part of your wedding’s success. Also, it must be thought out in advance. To find inspiration, don’t hesitate to search on social networks, like Instagram or Pinterest.  Make plans, and prepare your purchases, so that you are ready to decorate the reception room for the big day!
