There’s nothing quite so exciting — and perhaps terrifying — as planning your special day!

Many people dream of their wedding days their whole life, but it’s rare that they imagine all of the details that go into making their wedding day happen.

Sure, first you have to find that special someone, but then there’s the guest lists, the invitations, the overall madness that comes with trying to plan an event where two families are going to come together. National Wedding Planning Day is your cue to start planning your wedding as early as possible, to take the stress off.

How to Celebrate National Wedding Planning Day

Make a Plan

It all starts with sitting down and making a solid plan. A lot of people only imagine the beautiful wedding they’re going to have, but they have very little concept of what it will take for them to get that beautiful wedding organized.

Get the Details Straight

Once you’ve got an idea of what you want, it’s time to start breaking it down into its composite parts, including deciding how you’re going to handle invitations, getting a list of all the food allergies of all your guests, selecting wedding colors, and much more.

Consider a Wedding Planner

If it’s within your means, it’s best to get yourself a wedding planner who knows their way around events like this to get everything put together. Don’t let your big day get ruined by a ball of stress, use National Wedding Planning Day to get it moving.

History of National Wedding Planning Day

National Wedding Planning Day was established by The Knot in 2017 to help encourage those who are engaged to be married to start setting up their wedding day as early as possible. Every year millions of people get married, but many of them are cobbling together weddings at the last minute or don’t even make it to the wedding day thanks to the stress of planning the event!

Every year they put out a series of information to help people plan their wedding creatively and stress-free. Well, as stress-free as you can when you have two families who are due to be in-laws coming together.

If you’re getting ready to get married, you’re certain to know the level of stress that can happen as a result of planning your big day. National Wedding Planning Day is all about putting things together and getting organized to ensure that your wedding goes off without a hitch.
