The Week of Your Wedding

Bernadette Coveney Smith - Thursday, April 22, 2010
Hopefully, if you're an organized planner, you won't have too much to do the week of your wedding.  These are typically the last minute things on my list:

  • Write names on escort cards
  • Finish welcome bags/baskets for out of town guests
  • Print ceremony programs (though many of my clients don't use ceremony programs)
  • Write out final payments for vendors
  • Take out cash for vendor tips
  • Wear your shoes around the house
  • Pack for wedding night and for honeymoon
  • Rehearse your ceremony
What's missing?

How about some quality couple time before the gay wedding?  How nice is it to not run around like a chicken with your head cut off and have some down time to enjoy your last few days as single people...this might mean getting a couples massage, manicures, pedicures, facials (yes, even for the grooms), or something as simple as a date night.  While there are no traditions around the week of a gay wedding, it's so nice to not stress through it all...

What projects will be left to do the week of your wedding?  Are you planning to take some time to relax together before the big day?
