How to avoid common wedding mistakes

With all the details that go into planning a wedding, it’s easy to lose sight of the most important part of making your day a success—keeping your guests happy. Some tips to make the planning and the day itself run as smooth as possible:

• Don’t forget you’re going to have a life after your wedding. Treat your future family well to avoid hard feelings.

• People will remember not being included in the wedding, so handle any exclusions with care.

• Be mindful of the things that make your guests comfortable. If your wedding guests aren’t happy then you won’t be happy.

• Remember the little things for your wedding guests, such as parking (be specific), having a sufficient number people handling coat check, etc.

• If a wedding is cancelled, deposits are non-refundable after a specified period of time. Each service provider will be up front with how much of a deposit is refundable. If you do have to cancel, do it as soon as possible to get the most money back.
