Planning a wedding can be fun, maybe a little stressful at times but if you keep your eye on the important task at hand (marrying your awesome spouse-to-be), everything will be just fine.

When John and I were planning our wedding, I was attempting to balance wedding details and a huge work event all while still writing my column and updating my blog. Lucky for us, we had amazing friends who helped us pull off our wedding day; I’m not quite sure what we would have done without them. Our guest list, which kept growing, eventually worked itself out to a comfortable number (what started out as an 80 person invite ended up being close to 150) but I don’t think I would have had it any other way!

To conclude wedding week, I’ve included a PDF at the end of this post that has tips on how you can survive your wedding day. The guide also has a vendor list of all the peeps who provided an item and/or service for our wedding day. If you see something you like, reach out to them – we worked with some of the best people! And thank God for my matron of honor who kept me level-headed and laughing for the duration of our planning. Shout out to her for also keeping us full on champagne while we got ready on the wedding day.

This day was just so much fun and I wish I could relive it.

Thought my husband and I didn't have a traditional wedding, we did keep some traditional elements for our wedding. My most important rule for planning a wedding is to be you, this day only happens once.

To all of our friends, families and vendors who helped make our day the best day ever, thank you! If there are any soon-to-be brides reading this, I hope you’ll learn something from this survival guide and remember: at the end of the day, relax…it’s all going to be fine.
