Planning a wedding is an exciting time for you and your partner. But it can also be stressful – some people find that families can all want to have a say on what they think is best and even though a lot of advice can be well meaning, it can put extra pressure on you when you are trying to organise your big day.

So how do you get around this without having a nervous breakdown or falling out with the family?

Try to be calm and talk to each other without it getting too heated – it can easily escalate, but a lot of disputes can be easily resolved with a calm conversation. It may be that they don’t realise how their input is affecting you and they think that they are helping, so try not to jump  straight into a row as it may be that it can easily be resolved.

 

If you have something in the plans that you really want – for example you have your heart set on a particular venue like this barn wedding venue Kent https://theploughatleigh.com/barn-wedding-venue-kent/ then why not put them in charge of something else such as the cake for example? This will help them to feel that they are involved and keep them from trying to have a say over everything.

Blind Folded Groom

Having a photo of the groom blindfolded whilst he waits to see his bride for the first time is becoming a popular choice. Some couples are choosing to have this moment privately away from their guests and having it captured on film as the blindfold is removed and the groom sees his bride to be for the first time.

First Dance

No wedding day album would be complete without some pictures of the couples first dance. To make it look intimate and private, a great idea is to get the shot from a balcony above the couple.
