It’s no secret that planning your wedding can be a huge undertaking. Between the mountains of research and endless emails, it’s easy to get buried underneath it all. So what is our number one secret for an easy and stress-free planning experience? Read on to the end to find out!

Make Use of the Best Resources

We’ve all been there. It starts with just one pin and soon enough, you’ve snowballed into too many ideas, and you’re not sure where to go. Our Style Quiz is a great resource to find the photos that you love, while also getting matched to your perfect wedding photography style.

Lean on friends and family that have already gone through the wedding planning process. It seems simple enough, but those that have planned their own weddings have great insight on what they would have done differently or what helped them out the most. Also, remember to ask professionals and already hired vendors for recommendations.
