You've said yes, but you want to get married now! Here's how you can plan a wedding in under 6 months in Amarillo, Texas
Congratulations if you've recently answered "Yes" to that pivotal question in your relationship! Wedding planning is an exciting journey. Most engagements can last from 6 weeks to 2 years. Planning a wedding is a significant undertaking, and it can feel even more challenging with a shorter timeline. Whether you're opting for an earlier wedding date or just eager to get married soon, organizing a wedding in less than 6 months is definitely achievable. This blog post will offer you tips and strategies for planning a stunning and unforgettable wedding quickly.
Prioritize: The absolute first thing you should do when planning a shorter engagement is to prioritize. Both you and your partner should make a list of the most important things to you on your wedding day. Decide which aspects of the wedding day are non-negotiable and where you are willing to compromise. If you've had your eye on a certain wedding venue for the last year, your first priority should be to get that date booked! Smaller tasks, like planning decor, should be postponed until the most imporant vendors are booked. By prioritizing, you'll be able to focus on which tasks should be done immediately, and which ones can wait a few weeks.
Next, create a budget for your wedding and stick to it. With less time to plan, it’s essential to know exactly how much you can spend on each aspect of your big day. Consider what is most important to you both as a couple – whether it’s the venue, catering, or entertainment – and allocate your budget accordingly. Don’t forget about hidden costs such as taxes, gratuities, and alterations when setting your budget.
Once priorities and budget have been set, vendors come next. Remember to be flexible with wedding vendors, as many of them may typically book out 6 months to a year in advance. The first vendor you should visit is the wedding venue. When researching Amarillo wedding venues for your special day, remain flexible with your wedding date. Many popular Saturday dates book up over a year in advance during peak wedding season. Cornerstone Ranch Events Center also offers Sunday wedding packages at a discounted rate. Our Sunday packages include our most popular add ons including reception table decor, a photobooth, movie on the fence for kids during the reception, projector for a slideshow, Par-Tee miini golf yard games, and a sparker send off!
As you plan your wedding in under 6 months, consider simplifying certain aspects of the day. When choosing invitations, keep it simple! Choosing pre-designed stationery and digital RSVPs over custom-made invitations can expedite the printing process and save the time usually dedicated to designing and refining every aspect of the invitations. Opt for a more inclusive venue, like Cornerstone Ranch Events Center, that provides decorations and other essentials in one package.
