Your big day is fast approaching! Hopefully by now, you are all ready to go & aren't too stressed. Don't forget to do the last little things so your day runs smoothly.
1. Try on your outfits
Because you just never know. At least if you are a week out & you realise you have gained or lost some weight, there is still time to fix it! One of my friends got dressed on her wedding day & it didn't fit... so... you know. Just try it on again.
2. Write wedding speech and/or vows
If you are giving a speech (which every newly wed couple should at least say thanks for coming!), now is the time to write them. Same goes with your vows if you are writing your own. Do not leave to the day of! It might also be good to proof other speeches for the day (your dad, the MOH, the best man etc.) - I don't want long speeches, or embarrassing speeches so this will be a thing I will be doing (or getting my mum or another person to check for me).
3. Check in with all vendors one last time
Because, again, just in case.
4. Confirm final details
Make sure all details are locked in & good to go - finalise anything you might not have finished yet. Maybe the run sheet, photography list or seating plan. Whatever it is, get it done now.
5. Greet out of town guests
Now is the time people from out of town start arriving. Chances are they are coming into town for you, so take the time to greet them when they arrive & see them before the actual wedding.
6. Pack everything you need for the big day!
And I mean everything. Put everything in boxes, suitcases, bags, whatever you need & put them all together in the house (or even better, the car!) ready to go so you know everything is there. Think all attire & accessories, guest list, all decor & lighting, speeches or vows, an emergency oh shit kit (a whole post on this soon), a contact list for all suppliers & any one on your wedding party who might need to be contacted, any food or booze you are taking with you, overnight bag (toothbrush/toothpaste, soaps & other toiletries, PJs, getting ready outfits, clothes for the following days if required). Have a checklist & tick each thing off once it is in & good to go.
