Take this time to really think of all the little details that you want in your wedding and why not even take the chance to create some special DIY items for the day! There is so many things that you can do for your wedding at home which will keep you busy, from creating your invites to creating your table favours. If you feel like you are prepared when it comes to your wedding day, and haven’t yet had your Hen/Stag do, why not make a start on organising that instead? Or your Honeymoon? Having something to do and plan will help you feel energised and productive.
Keeping yourself busy during these times is important to cure boredom as well as keeping your mental health in check. Here are some activities that can be done from home for your wedding:
- Email all relevant people who are involved in your wedding such as your venue, entertainment, caterers, florists, hair and makeup artists, registrars, photographer etc, and find out what is happening and what they can suggest moving forward.
- Have a think of things that you can plan at home, for example;
Music playlists
Table plans and seating
Vows/speeches
Possible thank you cards to all your guests for after your wedding
Guest books etc.
- Why don’t you make a Pinterest and research all things wedding related! Pinterest is a great platform to get all your wedding inspiration, you can create a board and collect various photos and build a mood board of what you vision your wedding to be like, it is also really good for tips and tricks!
