1) Prepare emotionally

For most couples, the wedding is a long-awaited and much anticipated event. However, it's important not to lose sight of the fact that your wedding day is also likely one of the more stressful days of your life. This is due to all the preparation involved as well as an abundance of emotions that are flying around.

2) Figure Out Who's Going to Do What

As a married couple, figuring out who's going to do what can be difficult. With so many household duties, it's hard to decide which ones are the most important. One way you can figure this out is by drawing up a list of all the household duties you do now and then compare them with your spouse's list. Whatever items are on both lists should be your priorities. You also need to take into consideration each person's strengths and weaknesses when making decisions about who will do what.

3) Gather Important Documents

1. Obtain a copy of your birth certificate and any other records of your name change. Obtain copies of your spouse's birth certificate and any other records of their name change.

2. Ensure you have a valid passport or photo ID that reflects the correct gender, age, and last name.

4) Get Insured Together

If you have any type of insurance policy, make sure that you get it insured together. If not, make sure that your spouse is added as a beneficiary.

5) Have an Engagement Party

An engagement party is a great way to celebrate your engagement with your friends and family. It's a time where you can show off the ring and get excited about the future with those closest to you. Plus, it's a way of letting people know that you are getting married soon so they can start making plans!

#1: Invite Everyone You Know!

Not everyone will be able to make it, but try inviting as many people as possible.

6) Write Thank You Notes

These last few days of wedding planning are just as important as the big day. Thank you notes can be a great way to keep in touch with your guests, and show them how much you appreciate them coming. Plus, they're a perfect excuse to use that fancy new pen set you've been eyeing! Here are ten tips on how to write thank you notes without any hassle

7) Register Together

It's best if you register together because then it will be easier to make decisions. Plus, it'll let your guests know that they should buy gifts for both of you.

8) Pick a Great Venue

While you and your fiance might have your hearts set on a certain venue, there are a few things that you should consider before making your final decision. Do you have any guest with disabilities? If so, will the venue be able to accommodate them? Also, is the venue at an ideal location close to hotels or airports? Will the weather be accommodating on your wedding day? These are just a few things that you should think about when deciding where you want to get married.

9) Consider Your Budget

#1. Figure out your budget: A good place to start is by figuring out how much money you have, then calculating how much you can spend on the wedding. This will help you determine what types of venues and invitations are in your price range. Remember that a destination wedding will cost more than an average wedding! You may also want to consider including potential honeymoon expenses when calculating your budget.

10) Attend an Engagement Course

Engagement courses are a great way to learn about what marriage will be like, and it's a lot of fun. They're also a great way to get some one-on-one time with your fiancé and make sure you're on the same page before tying the knot. Engagement courses are offered by many churches or local groups and can be online or in person. Check with your church or community center and find out if they offer any engagement classes!
