Wedding Day Do's

Your wedding day is the most recorded day of your life in print, video and memory. So there are a few things you might want to consider so you don’t have any regrets as you make these happy memories.

1. Be sure to eat breakfast.

With so much happening on the day of your wedding it’s easy to forget to eat. To avoid embarrassing fainting spells at the wrong moment and to ensure you feel your best, eat breakfast and have snacks and water with you at all times.

2. Delegate.

It is important to make sure you don’t have any duties on your wedding day other than to look your best and enjoy every moment. This includes your parents. Many of the guests will be their family and friends too. They’ll want to enjoy their company without having to run around with duties better delegated to someone else.

3. Write down thoughts before going down the aisle.

Take some time to think about the commitment you’re making and how you feel about your fiancé. Write it down and keep it for you scrapbook. It’ll be a wonderful memory to cherish. As you step before your loved ones to go down the aisle, take a moment to look around at everyone that has gathered together to celebrate your decision. It will be emotional, but that’s OK. It’s the day to be emotional and enjoy all the love in the room.

4. Look your best.

If your dress is strapless, don’t wear a bra with straps earlier in the day to avoid marks on your shoulders. Also avoid socks that can leave marks on your ankles. When walking down the aisle be sure to hold your flowers low. If you hold them too high it hides much of the detail of your dress and can make you look wider.

5. Limit alcohol.

Brides spend a lot of effort on how they look on their wedding day. After too much alcohol they don’t care so much. To make sure you remember the day you’ve spent so much time planning, consider limiting how much you drink that day as well as the night before. You will be hugged by everyone that cares about you and your fiancé, you don’t want them to smell the effects of the previous night’s activities.
