Nikkah(wedding) are amazing, however, the processes that lead to that special day can be exhausting. Its no surprise that some brides look tired or angry on their wedding day.
We don’t want you to be a tired or an angry looking bride on your wedding day, so we put together some of the simple aspects of wedding planning that brides often stress out over.
Plan: do not leave your wedding planing to your event planner alone, you need to be fully involved every step of the way. Even if you trust your event planner more than yourself. You should also involve some of your close family and friends. Sometimes, your excitement about your wedding can lead to you making some decisions subjectively. So, seek other people’s opinions.
Budget: You need to do budgeting early and ensure that your event planner sticks to it. There will always be the urge to get something nicer that only cost a little bit more. I know it’s your special day and you want it to be beautiful. But you need not dig a pit into your pocket for your wedding, you’re going to need that pocket intact after the wedding!
Delegate : OK, i get, it’s your wedding and you have all the energy, but, if you decide to do it all by yourself, you’ll be burnt out before your big day. You can’t even do it all by yourself. You have to delegate responsibilities. Even if you have an event planner, have someone who would keep tabs on food and drinks, have people handle different aspects of the planning and the actual event, from sound, to decor, entertainment, cake, photography, etc.
Aso-ebi : As a Nigerian bride, stressing over aso-ebi alone is enough to break you down! You don’t have to purchase fabric for everyone. You can take a clear photograph of your wedding fabric and send it to interested individuals by mail or by any other social networking platforms and have them hit the street to get the fabric themselves.
Souvenirs: Have all your event souvenirs in a one bag. Have a general souvenir for everyone and then you can have the ones for people who bought your fabric or close family. You may not be able to control the surveniere frenzy especially at a Lagos wedding, but, you can reduce it by giving everyone something first.
