The step by step of your dream wedding

Nerves at the highest level, ideas fly in all directions and celebrating that beautiful love story should be just as they always dreamed of. Each stage before your wedding is essential to take maximum care of every detail.

Today, the Wedding Planners at Velas Resorts share with us a small guide to plan your dream wedding step by step. Specifically, it is designed for a destination wedding, but you can adapt it as it best suits you. Shall we start?

Before anything else, you must first define the time remaining before the wedding and this will make it easier to divide it into blocks since it is not necessary to do everything in one day, the activities depend on the block you are in. In addition, after having your budget established, all the steps will flow.

From 18 to 12 months before the wedding

Start by defining your guest and bridesmaids list.

Once you have this information, send a Save the Date invitation, in this way you will avoid unnecessary expenses and your guests will begin to consider the date in their calendars.

From 11 to 8 months before the wedding

Dedicate this stage to the providers and define the location, photographer, decoration, audiovisual, makeup, and hairstyle. Normally, providers work by booking, so defining them at this time allows you to ensure their availability on your wedding day.

Once you confirm the location and the exact date, it is time to send the official invitations.

From 7 to 6 months before the wedding

The most fun and long-awaited stage! Here begins the search for your wedding dress, the groom’s suit, the colors for bridesmaids, rings, music, and even the bachelorette party!

At this stage, you still have time to include an additional service for your wedding, such as a fireworks show or an additional cocktail.
