Last Minute Wedding How-to guide
Hi 👋🏾, That’s me on our wedding day ⬆️ We planned everything in just under 4 months and had a truly stress-free day. Can you believe it??!! And our guests all had an amazing 3-day weekend experience too.
PSST… I’m about to share the secret to planning a traditional wedding in just 3 months. Social media and old school companies might be telling you that 12-18months is the minimum requirement, but I’m here to dispel that myth!
After supporting close to 100 weddings I can tell you it is VERY possible. And I’m a living example as it all started with my own wedding journey. Although I found it difficult to find a planner who was supportive of my goals, I was determined to get married in my unconventional timeline. At the end of it all, my guests still talk about all the great experiences we sprinkled throughout the day and we both got to enjoy every moment of our wedding day. I want to help other couples feel just as empowered to do the same.
Here’s how to plan a fabulous wedding during a season & in 4 easy steps
1️⃣ Sync up with key family members & important friends to choose a weekend when those 10-20 people are available. Everyone else is a welcome attendee and their presence is appreciated but not required.
2️⃣ Hire a planner like Events in a Crunch. You want a company that is experienced with working with any time crunch & has inclusive packages that’ll help you simplify the process. Your planner will be there to help you edit and keep things focused so you don’t fall victim to the stress spiral.
3️⃣ With your planner, hone in on THE most important aspect to your wedding day.
-Feasting like kings?
-Having a blowout dance party people will remember for years to come?
-Scenery and photo/videos to last generations?
-Decorations that transport you to a different time and way of life?
Then put all your effort and energy there.
4️⃣ And lastly, with those key aspects as your guide, choose a space that fully embodies the aesthetic and vibe you want for the day. This will have a huge impact on streamlining your decor.
Now if you’re still asking yourself questions like…
What is a last minute wedding called? Do I need to label this wedding something special like “shotgun wedding” to help my guests understand?
Speaking of guests… How do I invite last minute wedding guests?
