How To Make Sure Your Wedding Day Is Smooth, Organized, and Peaceful

Your wedding is one of the most important occasions in your life. It’s also a very stressful one, especially if you’re planning everything yourself and have to take care of every last detail. Now imagine that the stress level on top of all that is exacerbated by the fact that you’re having your wedding in a place that you know nothing about. The location where you’ll be tying the knot can drastically affect how peaceful and relaxed your big day will be. Planning a wedding from afar can be tricky, which is why it’s crucial to include your significant other at every step of the process. Check out these tips for making sure your location risk assessment is thorough and organized so you don’t let any unforeseen challenges throw off the rest of your big day.

Talk it over with your partner first
If you’ve been planning a wedding on your own, you should start by telling your partner exactly what your plans are and why you want them to be a part of it. Communication is key, and it’ll make it much easier for both of you to deal with any problems that may arise. If you’ve been planning a wedding together with your partner, you should also start by talking about the most important aspects of your relationship. Your partner won’t just be a part of your wedding; he or she will also be a witness to your most important life moments, so it’s especially important that he or she feels welcomed and included.

Build a team of professionals
Try to find a wedding planner that can help you plan every step of your big day, from the food to the music to the decorations to the flowers. Not only will a wedding planner be able to help you avoid any potential pitfalls but they’ll also be able to look at all the details that you can’t possibly see on your own and offer insights into the best possible course of action. A wedding planner can help you make sure your location risk assessment is thorough and organized. A wedding planner can help you set a budget, brainstorm alternatives to keep your costs down, and arrange your reception venue, catering, and beverages. A wedding planner can also help you map out the entire wedding ceremony, including the order of the ceremony, readings, and vows.

Conduct a thorough location risk assessment
Your wedding will be one of the biggest days of your life so it’s essential that you take every precaution to make sure it’s as relaxing as possible. This means conducting a thorough location risk assessment, so that you know what to expect and how best to prepare for it. Start by taking a look at your desired wedding locations and noting any potential drawbacks. If one location seems particularly challenging, make sure to write it down so that you can add it to your location risk assessment. Next, take a look at the geographical features of the areas that you’re considering. Be sure to note any potential natural hazards, like strong winds or flooding, and any other factors, like the distance between your venue and an open-air space.

Communicate with vendors you’ll be using on the day
The best way to handle location risk assessment is to start with the vendors you’ll be using on the day. These include the person who officiates the ceremony and the person who provides the catering. Begin by setting up a meeting with the vendor to go over their services and start building a relationship with them. Next, have your vendors send an arbitrary location risk assessment form to help you prepare for unforeseen issues. Be sure to ask your vendors to send you a report that includes the following information:

Make sure you pick an open-air space if at all possible
Choosing a location for your wedding is stressful enough, but choosing a location that has the potential to affect your event in a negative manner can be devastating. In this case, it's best to pick an indoor location, even if it means having the ceremony outdoors. If you’ve chosen a difficult location, it’s probably best to avoid it, regardless of how much you love the location. Bad weather is unpredictable, and it can affect your wedding in unexpected ways. It can interrupt the ceremony and cause your guests to leave early or leave early themselves. It can also damage your decorations, or even cause a structural issue that forces you to postpone your reception.

Don’t forget about transportation and parking
When it comes to transportation, you want to make sure that all your guests can get to and from their destinations safely and comfortably. If you choose a remote location, you’ll want to consider hiring a transportation service to help your guests get there safely and on time. If the area you’ve chosen doesn’t have public transportation nearby, you’ll need to make sure that your guests have access to a car. Be sure to include this in your location risk assessment. Depending on where you’re getting married, you might also want to make sure you consider parking issues. You don’t want your guests to have to worry about parking, or to have to walk long distances to the ceremony.
