Name Change
Legally speaking, you’ll be a new person after you get married. Most women decide to change their last name to their husband’s last name when they get married. However, that doesn’t mean you need to choose your spouse’s last name. And if you do decide to take his last name, there are some things you need to consider. The decision can be complicated and involve a lot of details and paperwork but some kits on how to change your name after marriage can help you out with this. You may want to keep your maiden name or hyphenate your last names, which can involve much less headache than a total name change.
Plan a venue
It is important to try and find a venue early on, this can usually be the most expensive aspect of the wedding and really important in the planning of the big day. If you want 200 guests and you find a venue but you do not book it early if you have to find another one then they may not have the capacity, so it is important to have the venue planned early on. This can also help with themes and flowers as you want to make sure it matches with the venue on the day. Also, keep in mind the entertainment you wish to have at the venue. If you want a live wedding band Cheshire you need to make sure the venue can support all the heavy equipment.
Book a photographer
Having a great photographer on the day can be really important, as photos and videos are going to be what you have other than the memories of the big day. Also if you have lots of photos taken then you can do cool things with them for around the house or to send to your guests. You can do things like using a photomosaic program to take all your wedding photos and make them into a mosaic of a big picture. Doing things like this with your photos can really help create great memories for you. On the big day, you could also have someone with a drone that can fly around and get great shots of the weddings from awesome angles that a normal photographer could not. This can really help you capture the magic of the big day and give you memories and a reminder you can always go back to.
