What Matters Most?

Here’s a peek at the FIRST exercise I do with newly engaged couples who ask me about wedding planning services. It’s very important to me that my clients know what matters most to both partners. You can very easily get swept up and overwhelmed when putting on a huge event, so this serves as a guide to get you back on track if you get lost in the details.

How’d it go? Are you both on the same page? Were there any answers that surprised you?

It’s important to talk through all these things, even if disagreeing is uncomfortable at first. Maybe you haven’t given any thought to some of the things on this list. That’s okay, too. The point is to at least discover whether or not something is important to you. That way, you’re both getting exactly what you want out of your big day.

I firmly believe there is no magic formula for how a wedding is supposed to be. Sure, there is a natural order of events that make sense for the occasion, and allowing ample time for certain things is important. However, nobody HAS to make a toast. You don’t HAVE to feed everybody a sit-down meal or offer an open bar if that’s just not in your budget. Bring out some late night snacks and just get to the dance party already if that’s really you want! You know your guests, and you’re the experts on your relationship, so the day should reflect YOU, first and foremost.
