    Rebecca,

    I'm glad you had an amazing time and everything exceeded your hopes and dreams!! I am praying mine does as well!! I am a little under three months away and for me, the planning process has been a little crazy as well. I am concerned that the people saying they are coming will not show up. However, I have made it my business not to count anyone who does not RSVP. Is there any advice that you can give me regarding the actual wedding day process?

    For the day of, do not forget to eat! I thought before I'd be fine and would eat, but no, I had no appetite haha my family and bridesmaid's forced me to eat hahaha I was just so excited and nervous lol I ate a poptart 5 min before the ceremony hahaha. Another thing, don't sweat the small stuff. It's easier to say now after going through it, but at the end of the day, don't worry if your centerpieces aren't just right or if your flowers are different, or other things don't go exactly as planned. There were a few things that went differently than I planned (I.e. I had rose petals I completely forgot about, the caterer set of the tables differently than what we talked about, etc...) but I didn't even notice any of it until I got my pictures back lol! What I'm trying to get at is that the most important thing you need to do for that day is to marry the man of your dreams! I was on cloud 9 all day long, nothing bothered me. I didn't have a day of coordinator and I honestly don't regret it. We did have a venue coordinator (included with the venue) and she made sure all vendors were there and setting up. She also cued us when to walk and stuff. She was a huge help!

    Rebecca,

    This advice is perfect for me!! Normally if I am busy or have something big going on I will not eat at all! Also, I am pretty much a perfectionist so I am going to make it my business to not worry about the little things! My plan is to be happy and stress-free for the whole day! I want to be on cloud 9 for the whole month of May!! ha ha ha I put so much effort and time into this wedding especially since I pretty much planned it myself. I don't want anything to bother me on our day either. I don't have a wedding planner but my venue does come with a venue coordinator too. I am so grateful to have her! Thank you so much for your insight!!

    I'm glad I could help!! Good luck, I bet your day is going to be perfect and beautiful!! Just keep on smiling and don't worry what people think 😊That's awesome that you have a venue coordinator, she's going to be a huge help the day of!! Also I forgot to mention, if you're having a DJ, they will help guide the reception portion and will tell guests when dinner is, when to sit down, when to dance, etc etc. That was one thing I was worried about but it worked out great!
