Let's face it: planning a wedding is stressful. Here's some simple do's and don'ts to have the perfect wedding day!

DO make a plan

It sounds basic, but start by planning out your wedding, then go down the list one by one. Otherwise, you'll easily feel overwhelmed.

DO have a master guest list

Keep all addresses on hand, in hard copy and online. It will be invaluable when it comes to writing thank you notes.

DO make time for yourself

You'll be bombarded by people and questions right through the wedding day, so set aside time for you and your partner.

DO it for yourself

This can be done with the music, readings, vows and other personal stories and selections you make. It’s your day and it is important that the event reflects your individual style.

DO use Adore Wedding Planner to plan your seating

Be sensitive about how some of your quests are seated at both the ceremony and the reception or dinner and especially who they are seated with.

DO accept help from family and friends

DON'T overdo it

Getting in shape shouldn't mean setting unrealistic goals that require crash-dieting and unsafe lifestyle changes. Losing a maximum of two pounds a week is considered reasonable.

Remember that this is your special day! Spend it with those people who mean the most to you and your spouse, and will make your wedding special for the two of you.

DON'T over indulge on the day - well not too much

Pace yourself. Just take a sip here and there, but pinch yourself to stay in the moment. You'll want to remember all of it.

DON'T expect everything to run smooth as silk

Remember that this is a joyful celebration of love rather than an exercise in event management and its nature is such that small thing might not go completely according to plan. Don’t stress out – these things can sometimes be the most memorable. Keep remembering that it’s about you and your partner.

DON'T rush into maling any fast decisions

Take your time and make sure that the decisions you make are good ones, especially when it comes to choosing professionals, such as photographers or caterers.
