There is a lot of energy and time that goes in planning a wedding and at the same time it can be stressful at times but mostly the bride to be is looking forward to her Big day! There are many important factors and so much material to read about planning your wedding successfully and my best advice is to have fun regardless of anything because in the end the bride is going to look amazing walking the aisle with her groom and family and friends are going to witness the blessing of the matrimony and celebrate the moment of their lives.

Make sure to communicate with all the family and friends about your expectations and schedule a few reminders with all vendors and people involved. Talk to other recent married couples in the area or do some research and confirm the necessary requirement, such as marriage license requirements, permits, etc.  I recall when my wife and I got married I had to pick up family members from out of town and drove them to the church because it was last minute and they didn't have a ride, luckily someone volunteered to take my vehicle back home after the reception because we had a limo planned to drive us around and take us back home.

Hope this helps you!
