4 Questions to Ask Yourself When Planning a Wedding

The wedding planning process is both incredibly exhilarating and at times, stressful. Part of what will alleviate some of the stress of planning a wedding is knowing the right questions to ask yourself. Before making any big decisions, consider these four important questions and know your answers to them.

• “Do I Want Outdoors, Indoors, or Both?” Know what your preferences are for your ceremony and reception settings. Some people want an indoor ceremony and an outside reception. Some want it reversed. Determining what you want will make choosing the right location and season easier.
• “Do I Want an All-Inclusive Rental or to Have My Own Options?” Some venue rentals include everything from catering to linens while others merely rent out the space. Decide whether you want to have everything included in the rental or if you prefer a space that allows you to choose your own caterer, linens, and so on.
• “What Theme Do I Want?” Do you want a more casual, simply elegant wedding with a small number of guests and a limited amount of hassle? Or do you want something bigger, more glamorous, ritzy, and formal? There is a seemingly endless number of options to choose from, but knowing the central theme of the wedding you envision will make choosing the right venue so much easier.
• “What Are The Food Arrangements?” Just like theme, there are countless options for food arrangements. Determine whether you want a sit-down dinner, buffet, dessert station, tasting stations, or other options. Also, keep in mind what your arrangements will be for alcohol.
