How to Enjoy Your Wedding Day?

You have put in many hours of thought, planning, imagining, making, and maybe even fawning over your big day.

You're getting married to the person you've always imagined yourself with, and you're beyond giddy with joy.

You can very much count on this from the majority of engaged couples. However, most groups are unable to fully celebrate the nuptials.

A lot of couples report feeling tired and stressed out on their wedding day due to the cumulative effects of months of nervousness and worry (and a lack of sleep).

Right now, you're probably spending most of your time organising the ideal wedding, so it's important to remember to take some time to relax and enjoy the day you've worked so hard to organise.

The Reason Most Couples Never Enjoy Wedding Day

We can all agree that arranging a wedding is a bit insane. Date, guest list, budget, and the coordination of different vendors all need to be planned carefully.

You're worried that, despite your best efforts, the big day won't go according to plan.

Fear of anything going wrong on their wedding day is common among engaged couples.

Nothing will go wrong at a wedding in a perfect world. But in reality, even the most well-planned and costly weddings run into unexpected problems.

That's because no wedding day can go off without a hitch; after all, you can't keep twelve people from making a scene.

It's possible that one of your vendors may be late by a few minutes, the weather might shift in the days leading up to the event, etc. Unfortunately, you cannot and will not be able to exert complete control over every situation.

A Guide to Making Your Wedding Day More Fun

However, there is plenty you can do to make the most of the situation and ensure that your wedding day is memorable without compromising on its significance.

These suggestions are meant to help you remain composed and to remind you of the reason for today.

Before Your Wedding Day

Engagement Party

A word of advice: don't invite the whole neighbourhood!

You don't want to have to have that awkward chat with your pals after the engagement party about how you opted to have a "smaller wedding" and they didn't make the cut.

Plan ahead for both your engagement party and wedding by carefully considering who you want to invite.

Despite the fact that you have probably not given much attention to a wedding guest list or the location of the ceremony, it is still important to plan for every eventuality.

Go for the Up-Do!

Each and every one of us wishes we had Kate Middleton's voluminous, wavy hair on our wedding day.

By the time you're declared husband and wife, your hair will appear dishevelled because to the wind, humidity, and several hugs from distant relatives.

Instead of spending time curling your hair if you know it will only fall flat, put it up!

It may make you appear more put together, and if you use enough hair spray, you can make your hair look like you just got out of the salon.

Buy Your Veil and Wedding Accessories

You may be thinking, "Wait, I'm not meant to purchase a bespoke veil five days before my wedding in the hopes that it will reach it in time?" No. Things are not going to go well.

With all that has to be done before the big day, it's easy for the bride to forget the finer points until it's almost too late.

Hire Professionals for Hair & Makeup

If you do decide to have a professional handle your hair and makeup, it is important to remember to book a hairdresser for your hair and a makeup artist for your face.

People don't just randomly pick a field of study; there's a logic behind it. Talented artists who have studied in both professions can be found sometimes, but you will likely not be completely happy with them.

Hiring a professional hairstylist and makeup artist may add to the final bill, but the results will be worth it.

There is a wide variety of approaches and styles available to them, and they all have the necessary tools (for any task).

It's interesting to note that cosmetics trends vary by culture. Professional makeup artists may be found that specialise in doing makeup for a wide range of ethnicities.

Do Your Homework & Find a Unique Shot

Wedding blogs and photo sharing website Pinterest make it simple to uncover stunning images from genuine weddings held at your desired location.

The best plan is to peruse some of the photos and either make a note or provide the link to your photographer.

You could want to have a picture shot at a special spot on your land, or you might have a favourite pose you've always wanted to capture. Feel free to tell them how you feel.

Be Wise With Your Pre-Ceremony Downtime

Consider yourself lucky and put that extra time to good use before you head to the church.

No one wants the limo to show up while they're still rushing about trying to finish off their preparations.

Don't Write Your Vows Last Minute!

There will come a moment when you either deeply regret not having written your vows or find yourself completely unable to do it due to lack of time.

Entertainment Coordinator

To put it simply, the success of a wedding depends on this person's performance in this function. The wedding DJ/MC is responsible for maintaining a steady pace and keeping everything running smoothly.

Having a professional DJ at your wedding is a must if you and your guests enjoy getting on the dance floor. You can count on them to keep your partygoers on the dance floor and having a good time all night long!

Morning of Wedding Day

A Good Night's Rest

Wedding night sleep is crucial. We strongly advise finding a technique to assure a decent night's rest, whatever you can do it.

There are several ways to get to sleep, such as drinking warm milk, taking a sleeping medicine, or counting sheep.

If you know you will have trouble sleeping on the night of your wedding, you should probably start thinking about a remedy well in advance of the big day.

It's not fun to toss and turn all night long because you can't stop thinking about all the things that need to be done on your wedding morning.

It's tempting to throw a huge slumber party with all your girlfriends the night before the wedding, but getting a decent night's sleep the night before your wedding is far more important.

Do not show up to the ceremony looking like a zombie since your long-time girlfriend has a snoring problem.

Calm Space on Your Wedding Day

There is a tradition in which many ladies spend their wedding night with the groom's family.

In the spirit of Home Alone's Kevin McAllister, you may find yourself yearning for the disappearance of your parents' out-of-town guests if they have used up all of the extra bedrooms.

You probably won't want to spend your wedding day in a deserted hotel room, but a house full of relatives whose emotions are running high probably isn't the best place to start your married life.

Those hours spent on your hair and cosmetics are meant to be a pleasant respite before the big event.

It's a good idea to designate a private space in your home (not the kitchen, where everyone congregates) where you can go for some peace and quiet whenever you choose.

Food: Who Needs It?!

Hint:You won't have time to eat it and you won't be hungry.

The combination of anxiety, fear, and butterflies has resulted in an empty stomach.

It is important to stay hydrated and eat something before and during the wedding, even if you can't eat much. Try your favourite protein bar; it could do miracles!

Remind Your Maid of Honor

My biggest pet hate is when the bride arrives at the altar in a lovely dress but the train is all bunched up because the maid of honour forgot to fluff it.

You shouldn't step on the MOH's toes by doing this yourself, but others may.

Make sure she knows that after you've reached the altar, you may take your train out and admire it.

Music: You May Not Hear It!

Is there special music you'd want to have played during your wedding?

Without a doubt, having a live musician perform for your guests will enhance the whole experience. The string quartet is playing in the background, but you probably won't notice it because you'll be too preoccupied with avoiding falling down in your Badgley Mischka heels or stifling your tears or being overcome with emotion and thinking only of the person waiting at the end of the aisle who isn't you.

Is there special music you'd want to have played during your wedding?

Without a doubt, having a live musician perform for your guests will enhance the whole experience. The string quartet is playing in the background, but you probably won't notice it because you'll be too preoccupied with avoiding falling down in your Badgley Mischka heels or stifling your tears or being overcome with emotion and thinking only of the person waiting at the end of the aisle who isn't you.

Set up and Take Down Crew

If you're handling everything for your wedding on your own, you'll need a strategy for dismantling it.

Many people who arrange their own wedding decorations have a team ready to go for the setup, but by the end of the night, everyone is either too exhausted, too intoxicated, or has left the party to bother about taking down.

Depending on the location of your wedding, you and your new husband may have to clear up the balloons and confetti after the reception instead of celebrating at the after-party.

Bonus Tips

Make Sure You Wake up Refreshed

The night before the wedding, get to bed at a normal hour. Aim for six or more hours, however it may be difficult with any last-minute preparations.

That may mean scheduling the hen party a full week before the wedding, when you'll be less likely to be up late getting ready. Maintaining your composure at the wedding will be easier if you get enough of rest before it.

Remember the Wedding Is Not All About You

No one would argue that this is your wedding, but if you treat it as though it were all about you, you run the risk of being a "wedding diva" who spends more time moaning and shouting than celebrating their union.

In reality, the wedding is not just for your benefit, and you will not be the only one present to celebrate the occasion. You're surrounded by loved ones—spouse, kids, extended family—who are eager to celebrate with you and revel in the thrill of the occasion.

There are a lot of individuals that care about the couple and are just as excited for the wedding as you are.

Limit How Many To-Dos You Have on Wedding Day

So, what exactly does your wedding day checklist entail? You might want to leave your wedding day free of obligations if you have a long to-do list.

No need to get up and rush out the door to do chores. You should take the morning off and do nothing.

Less stress and more time to unwind are yours for the taking when your daily workload is lightened.

You may also think about pampering yourself on your wedding day by getting a massage and manicure or attending a morning yoga session.

Do Not Forget to Eat and Keep Hydrated

In spite of your hectic schedule, take the time to enjoy a healthy breakfast (ideally one with protein) and drink lots of water on your wedding day.

Being thirsty and hungry on your wedding day is not the best way to begin your special day.

Without food and water, you risk being too weak to enjoy your wedding or, even worse, developing a migraine that might end your honeymoon early.

Just Trust the Vendors You Hired

You clearly put in a lot of effort to investigate, question, and evaluate each potential vendor. Believe in yourself and your abilities as a judge now.

You may rest assured that your wedding will go off without a hitch since your hired specialists have performed numerous weddings before yours.

Have faith that they can carry out your orders and stop stressing about the actions of your providers.

Let your event planner handle the vendors so you can relax and enjoy your special day.

Celebrate With Everyone

Unfortunately, there are some couples who don't seem to realise that their wedding is a reason to party. One should join in the festivities and revelry of a wedding by being present at the event.

It's time to break out of your routine and have some fun on the dance floor. Take some time to socialise with your wedding guests, and remember to express your gratitude to each and every one of them for making the trip to celebrate with you.

You deserve to relax and have fun at the party. Don't just sit there and worry because the cake is being sliced five minutes late. Don't worry about the intoxicated guests spoiling your wedding, and don't check your phone every minute to see if a vendor is running late.

As long as you keep the big picture in mind, your wedding may be as thrilling as you like.

You're probably there because you're about to get married to the person you love. Nothing else here is more than filler.

How to Enjoy Your Wedding Day More: Final Tips

For even more bliss on your wedding day, consider these additional suggestions.

• On the day of the wedding, forget about the diet you've been following to fit into the dress. Low caloric intake is associated with fatigue, irritability, and fainting. Don't stuff yourself silly, but try to eat regularly throughout the day. The key is to consume it frequently but in little amounts. Appoint a watcher to make sure you don't forget to eat.
• Make sure to snap a lot of pictures before the big day. When you add up the time it takes to do everything after the wedding, you may find that your reception time has been cut short.
• If you're nervous, sleep well the night before. If you stay up late partying, you'll be exhausted by the time the reception begins.
• Never take on a project like this on your own. Let someone else make the paper flowers if you really want them. There will be more than plenty for you to do.
• Don't blow a little problem out of proportion. In spite of the obstacles, the wedding will go on, and everyone is guaranteed a good time. We can either overlook or delegate minor problems to someone else.
• Make sure you have someone to take care of your wedding dress and veil after the reception and to collect any leftover presents and mementoes.
• At the reception, instead of spending time alone or ignoring your new spouse, focus on spending time with him. If you want to remember your wedding reception fondly, you should do so jointly, not separately. It will serve you well in the years to come as you face the various challenges of married life if you take the time to enjoy all that is occuring and how you feel together.
• Instead of just leaving the wedding speeches to the maid of honour and best man, it would be sweet if the two of you gave a joint speech. Since you are speaking to your own friends and family and not theirs, you can be assured that your words will have greater weight and meaning.
• Keep in mind that the wedding is about you, your new spouse, and your loved ones coming together to celebrate this special day. It doesn't matter how much money you spent on your clothing, how fashionable your shoes are, or even the type of music that was played.
• Most importantly, enjoy yourself.
