    The first thing we actually decided on for our wedding was actually the guest list. We both have a lot of people who we realized we felt were very important to us and want so badly to share our day with, so to us, that was the biggest deciding factor/influencing factor to the rest of our decisions (venue, food, location, etc.). I think what you decide to choose first really depends upon what is the most important for you to have at your big day (besides each other, of course!).

    The date. Lol. FH said he wanted to have the wedding on the day we started dating. Unfortunately, it is a Monday and just would cause too many complications, so we opted for the day before. Second decision was the venue, though we changed it like 3 times before coming to a final decision.

    It was either our date or location. We didn’t want to get married in our hometowns; we, also, knew we wanted to get married during a time that his siblings’ kids were out of school. The venue ultimately decided our date though.

    The first thing was probably the colors. We had been talking about colors before we even got engaged. Then the location and date.

    Color scheme came first for us! We are two years off from the wedding date so we have just started the serious planning part.

    We picked our anniversary. Our venue was picked for us, being that it’s our home Church.
