Planning your wedding can be sooooooo exciting! If you are at the beginning of your wedding adventure, the chances are you will have bought some bridal magazines, had a look online at wedding sites and Pinterest, and maybe have one or two bridal fairs booked in. These are all super useful and fun ways of looking for ‘wedding inspo’, bringing together some ideas of how you want your perfect day to look and
feel.
Once you have found your picture-perfect dream wedding venue (see our handy blog for hints, tips and help here), you are one step closer to putting those ideas into action and this can feel more than a little overwhelming! After all, it can be incredibly difficult to envisage how to dress an empty space, especially if you have to source everything yourself.
Our Wedding Décor Checklist
There are lots of wedding checklists online, but in my role as a wedding planner and stylist (and having organised my own wedding in a very short space of time), I very quickly realised that many lists neglect to mention the smaller or unique décor items that can really help to make your day feel so very personal and memorable. At the end of the day, your wedding is totally unique and personal to you - that includes everything from the vows you choose to make to each other, to your first dance, your wedding favours and the choices you make when you select your décor.
Carefully selected wedding decorations and beautiful finishing touches can really make such an impact, helping to make your day look and feel really special, from the ‘I do’s right through to the carriages home.
Aside from arranging the hire of our fabulous Wedding Library florals, props and decorations, a huge part of my role is to cover as many décor details with my couples as possible. With this in mind I have created a handy checklist of things that you might like to consider incorporating into your special day. Everything is of course entirely optional – I don’t believe there are rights or wrongs here. However most couples I meet, find it really helpful to have a comprehensive list as a starting point, to tick off the things you definitely want to incorporate and to think about how to personalise those finishing touches.
Our checklist has been divided into two easy sections covering your ceremony and reception and it's available as a handy downloadable document at the end of this blog. Simply download and print so that you can work your way through it, item by item. I promise it’s a great way to stay focused on what you really do want and need, whilst keeping in mind what is affordable within your wedding budget.
Please keep in mind that you don’t need to have every single item on our checklist – simply choose the pieces you really love that work within your wedding budget.
Once you have an idea of what you might like or need, it can be a challenge and hugely time consuming to pull all of your ideas together, sourcing all those lovely décor items and ending up with a coordinated cohesive look. It can be especially tricky if you are juggling work or family commitments and several wedding suppliers all at the same time! However when you choose to book with us, please be reassured that we are here to help you every step of the way. Our wonderful reviews from countless happy couples are testament to the time, love and commitment we dedicate to each and every wedding.
We have so many beautiful bespoke props and decorations and the most stunning faux florals, many of which can be personalised just for you - everything from mix & match table centrepieces to fabulous wedding cake stands and stunning wedding backdrops. Just pop on through to our stock page to see how many things on your checklist we can tick off! And if you have something in mind that we don’t have at the moment, wherever possible we will create or source it for you. Super helpful, stress-free wedding styling all the way!
So if you think we can help, then please do get in touch for a chat to check availability and book your free styling consultation. I would love to talk through your plans and hopes for your special day and help to make your wedding dreams a reality. Happy wedding planning!
