Checklist wedding 

Some brides to be choose to organize their own bigday together with their brides to be. From guest list to decoration, everything to your liking. Organizing a wedding yourself can often be much cheaper than hiring a wedding planner.

Whatever your reasons for organizing your own wedding, with this wedding checklist you can start planning your own wedding!

To get you ready to arrange your own wedding, we first give you a handy tip. Choose a theme if it suits you. Giving a wedding in a certain theme is totally trendy. Besides that you have a guideline when choosing and buying the decoration, the wedding cake, the bridal bouquet, the location and your wedding clothes (including a wedding dress, bridal shoes and the clothes for the groom). A theme also makes it easier for the guests, because what do you wear to a wedding? You don't want to appear over, but certainly not underdressed at a wedding. For example, do you choose the theme bohemian? Then your wedding will take place on a beach, in nature or in a forest. Your wedding dress is a loose fit dress and you wear a wedge heel, a sandal or another flat bridal shoe. Are you going for a casual wedding'? Then you don't have to get everything right down to the last detail and your guests won't appear in a black tie.

One of the most important parts of your big day is your clothes. The dream dress and the perfect comfy bridal shoes for the bride to be and a neat suit and wedding shoes for the groom. It can be quite overwhelming to see so many wedding dresses and want to fit, but when you wear that one dress, you know for sure. This will be your wedding dress. This of course also applies to the groom. As we just mentioned when you choose a theme, the wedding dress and the groom's clothes can match this.

Preparing is half the job, so is your bigday. You want everything to be perfect and you don't have to worry during your wedding day. With this checklist we give you an overview of what to expect when arranging your wedding. The wedding organizing checklist makes sure you don't forget any important points.

Start by familiarizing yourself with your wedding plans. You have been asked to marry in a super romantic way or you have decided together that you want to go through life as husband and wife. Tell your family and loved ones about these plans and the real work can begin.

Speaking of family and loved ones, who do you invite to your wedding? Are you organizing an intimate wedding or are you unpacking big? It is wise to estimate the number of guests. This is a point to take into account when choosing a venue.

Now that you have figured out how your wedding will be celebrated and who will be invited, it is time to set your wedding date. Are you a fan of a beachy wedding or back to nature? Then take into account the season in which you want the wedding to take place. Keep in mind that many guests will go on vacation during the summer months, so it is important to announce your wedding date in time.

After fixing your wedding date, you will be able to visit locations and request availability. It may happen that your favorite location is not available on your wedding date, no worries this happens to almost every bride to be. Once you have found a location it is wise to include an option here, so you can take a look around and at the same time be assured of a location. Also think about whether your ceremony, dinner and party will take place at the same location. Are you going for an intimate party? Then this is for you and your guests so relaxed.

Is your best friend super stress proof? Maybe she wants to take on the role of ceremony most of the time. She is the contact on your big day and arranges everything from A-Z. She catches the guests and points them to the right place. The witnesses are the people who sign your marriage certificate. They confirm that the couple has agreed to the marriage. A witness can be anyone, for example your mother, a friend or a niece.
