THINGS THAT ARE SOMETIMES FORGOTTEN

It’s so easy to get caught up in the hustle and bustle of planning your big day that something is bound to be forgotten. We have compiled a list of a few things that are easily forgotten when it comes to planning your wedding.

Insurance; although this doesn’t cover you if you change your mind, it does cover you for things such as a vital member of the wedding party falling ill or a problem with a vendor. Many packages also cover loss or damage to a certain extent. Before paying out for wedding insurance make sure it is right for you and that you understand everything it covers.

Make sure you ask questions. Sometimes, for example, VAT isn’t necessarily included in the price. If you don’t ask the vendor, you may be in for a nasty surprise when they send you the bill. Other potential extra charges include cloakroom fees, corkage, cake knives and lighting costs.

Do not forget to provide directions to your venue when sending guest invitations. It is easy to assume that they know where your venue is, but often people travelling a distance won’t know. Other signs that may be needed for the day could include signs around your venue and where the evening entertainment and toilets are. Ensure that you are aware of any allergies/ food intolerances that your guests may have when it comes to planning the meal. Often caterers need advance notice so they can ensure that everything is taken care of.

We hope these tips will help you not to forget anything important when it comes to your special day.
