7 Highly Effective Habits For The Wedding Planning Process

Posh Girls Tying The Knot~ Inside secrets to sane wedding planning!

yes, these habits are also about how to help you keep close tabs on your wedding dollars! Without proper planning and communication, you could easily find yourself stuck spending more than you wanted to. Make these 7 Effective Habits part of your Wedding Planning Process and the outcome is sure to be exactly what you wanted your wedding day to be!

1. Don't Procrastinate

We certainly can't stress this morsel of wisdom enough. You'll enjoy your wedding far more if you're not cramming everything into the last two months. It's a tad bit difficult to write romantic wedding vows when you've waited until the night before the wedding to put pen to paper.

2. Find the right Wedding Planning Guide Book

Being organized is key, not only to getting things done but to saving money, and there is just too many parts to the planning of a wedding that it wouldn't be smart or cost effective to try to think of all the the various details you need to handle by yourself. I highly recommend finding a Wedding Planning Guide Book to walk you through this! There are many good guides out there, but two specifically have passed our test of being a true value. Please see the review of our Top 2 Wedding Planning Guides at our online magazine YourWeddingDollars.com that we recommend to help you with this endeavor. Both these guides cover everything that needs to be planned and organized including timelines and budgets and they help you with ways to find the best deals.

3. Schedule Planning Time

Be sure to schedule meeting times with each other to discuss the details of the wedding: the schedule, the budget, the vendors, etc. Be diligent about keeping these appointments with each other. This is the beginning of another important marriage building skill-shared decision-making.

4. Communicate & Compromise

You'll definitely have the opportunity to familiarize yourselves with the delicate arts of communication and compromise. You're designing a wedding that suits the two of you, while taking into account the needs of your families and guests. Through this process of planning and compromise you will learn new ways of communicating with each other, as well as discover areas where it is difficult for you to express yourselves.

Establish a daily ritual to discuss your feelings and share your thoughts. Even if you only have time for a five-minute chat. It is the consistency, not the quantity of conversation that counts.

5. Share the Tasks & Delegate

Long gone are the days when the groom took a back seat and let his rosy-cheeked bride make all the decisions. Welcome to the 21st century. Couples are now splitting the list in half. Brides rejoice! Two people dividing the lengthy task list will not only reduce stress for you, it allows the groom, traditionally the most ignored person in the entire affair, to participate in his own wedding. A novel concept, we know.

Above and beyond the professional help you hire, create a wedding support network for yourself. Make a list with your fiancé of the various friends and family who might want to be involved with your wedding. Give each of them a task, stated as clearly and specifically as possible. Call them regularly to give them your appreciation and to check on how their project is coming along.

6. Be Assertive

Communicate your wishes clearly and tactfully to wedding professionals, friends and family members. Practice saying "no" and using phrases like, "we have discussed this and we feel that" It's your wedding and don't you forget it.

7. Take Care of Yourself

Pay attention to the essentials of good health. Avoid caffeine, sugar, alcohol and nicotine, which put unnecessary strain on both body and mind. Eat more vegetables, fruits, whole grains and fish. Get a full night's sleep to revitalize. Dreaming releases the accumulated stress of the day and stabilizes the brain waves. Exercise is the best source of stress reduction known to man. The endorphins released in even a moderate amount of aerobic exercise can fight depression and elevate the mood.

Posh Girls Guide - How to Buy a wedding Gown

Posh Girls Guide -

A"HOW TO" Guide When Shopping for your Gown

Posh Girls Guide -

A"HOW TO" Guide When Shopping for your Gown

I am in the beginning process of looking for my wedding dress. I wanted to know if you had any tips or suggestions? Also my wedding is set for 8 months away, when is a good time to order/purchase my wedding gown? This couture gown is one of my inspiration dresses by Olge Cassini.

A: This is a common question that alot of my clients ask. Here are some important things to think about and take into consideration when you are scouting the numerous bridal salon for your special dress!

Many gown manufacturers now offer wedding gowns in champagne, ivory, blush, diamond white, etc., these softer hues may be more flattering to your complexion.

Go to your local book store and buy a few wedding magazines . Look through magazines for ideas.

Do some online research on wedding gowns.

Make appointments at bridal shops to start trying things on. Try not to buy the first wedding gown you like.

Limit who will go with you! Bring your maid of honor and/or your mother,. Make sure it is someone whose taste you admire and opinion you truly value. More than two people can turn a day at the bridal shop into an opinion-ridden nightmare.

Bring or wear appropriate undergarments for the fittings. Wear comfortable clothes/shoes to get in and out of.

Avoid wearing excessive make-up!

Remember...Size isn’t everything! Most of the bridal gowns are notoriously smaller than the normal size you wear. So if you normally wear a size 10, be prepared to try on sizes 12 or 14.

Beware of alteration costs! Always ask the salon what these charges maybe. What you may save, you may pay for in alteration fees.

Trying on all those wedding gowns can be quite exhausting! Limit your self to two salons per outing and make sure you have a handy snack stashed in your purse along with a bottle of water.

Have fun! Take pictures and put them in your pre-wedding day scrapbook.

When to Order/Purchase:

Try not to wait too long to start looking for your wedding gown.

A good lead time on placing your order is 6 to 8 months, remember you will need time for your alterations.

Keep in mind that certain manufacturers do take longer for their gowns to ship, possibly up to 6 months.

The normal shipment of wedding gowns is anywhere from in stock and up to 16 weeks ship time.

Fitting your Bridal Gown

Your first fitting should be approximately 5 to 6 weeks before the wedding. If you are dieting this would be a good time to stop and keep a consistent weight

If you are concerned about the size ordered, or if you feel you’ve gained or lost weight have the first fitting 7 to 8 weeks before your BIG day.

Make sure you are clear beforehand about the overall alteration fees and who will be executing the necessary alterations.

After that, plan to have one or two more sessions to make sure everything is perfect and to also put in a bustle.

The last fitting is when the dress is completely altered and everything fits just right. This appointment usually includes instructions on how to bustle your gown and is when you will schedule your pickup date.

When you pick up your dress make sure everything is as it should be. Pay attention to details.

Preserving your Bridal Gown

Have your gown professionally cleaned as soon as possible after the wedding day. There are invisible stains from food, beverages and perspiration that can turn into permanent yellow stains if the gown is not properly cleaned before storage.

Assign your mother or Maid of Honor to the task while you are on your honeymoon.

Make sure whoever you select to clean your gown is not just a dry cleaner yet they are a speciality gown cleaner.
