“The highest happiness on earth is the happiness of marriage.”, said William Lyon Phelps. Wedding days are the most beautiful and joyous events that require a lot of planning, research, proper timing, and organization. They are like an abstract painting, no matter what tools you use to paint it the end result is always unique and beautiful and worth your efforts! They are an exciting, whirlwind celebration, and you would enjoy planning it just for you and your loved ones. While perfect wedding planning is the key, a lot of unnecessary stress can be avoided by booking an excellent wedding venue at the right time which is usually a year to nine months before the wedding date.
