💍 Top Event Planning Tips for Newly Engaged Couples
By I Do Events – Creating Moments That Last Forever
1. Create a Vision Board
Start with a shared Pinterest or Canva mood board to align on style and theme.
2. Set a Budget Early
Talk numbers upfront and decide what matters most — venue, food, or photography?
3. Pick a Date (and Backup Dates!)
Flexibility can help you book your dream venue or vendor.
4. Estimate Your Guest Count
This will guide venue size, catering needs, and overall cost.
5. Secure Major Vendors First
Book your venue, photographer, planner, and caterer early — they go FAST!
6. Hire a Coordinator (Like Us!)
Having a planner or day-of coordinator keeps you stress-free and on schedule.
7. Don’t DIY Everything
Pick 1–2 fun DIY projects, but let professionals handle the rest.
8. Think of Guest Comfort
Provide signage, refreshments, weather prep, and seating that flows.
9. Use a Checklist & Timeline
Stay organized with a digital planner or app — planning is smoother when you’re ahead.
10. Stay Connected as a Couple
Take wedding-free nights. Your love is the heart of it all. ❤️
