There are thousands of tiny details that go into planning a wedding at an event center in Alamo, TX - from picking the photographer and choosing the caterer down to what color the charger plates should be. Brides and grooms have heard just as many tips and tricks for dealing with these wedding details, but they might not have heard all the tips. Here are amazing wedding planning tips you never hear but will make a huge difference in your big day:  

• Make a Digital RSVP – Unfortunately, lots of wedding guests just won’t RSVP. However, you can make that number smaller by creating a digital RSVP platform. While not as traditional as paper envelopes, the digital way will increase the convenience factor and help guests do their part and let you know they’re coming.  

• Make a Wedding Email Address – You get enough emails already! Make it easier to keep track of all your wedding correspondence by creating a new email address that’s used only for your wedding. If you don’t want to make a whole new email, at least create a “wedding” folder in your current email account to stay organized.  

• Meet with Your Officiant More than Once – While the ceremony itself seems like a small part of the big day, it’s the whole reason for the whole shebang. Therefore, it needs time and attention. Meet with your wedding officiant at least twice to make sure that your ceremony is the way you want it to be.  

• Go for a Cash Registry – Don’t need a new vacuum? All set on kitchen stuff? Make a cash registry. There are tons of online platforms that make it easy for you to make a cash registry and for your guests to give you the money you want or need. Make your registry more fun and special by asking for money for certain items, like a carriage ride on your honeymoon.  

• Consider Overflow Tables – Guests often bring guests, even when they say they won’t or when they weren’t given a plus one. So, it’s a good idea to be prepared with an overflow table. Just one will be enough to make room for unexpected guests.  

• Set Aside Time to be with your New Spouse – This might seem silly, but you’d be surprised how tough it is to get alone time with your new spouse on your wedding day. Between taking photos, dancing, greeting guests, it’s a challenge. Build some time into the calendar to make sure that you have at least 10 minutes to relish in your new marriage just the two of you. These moments can be right after the ceremony or right after photos, but its best to do it before the reception officially begins because you don’t want to miss the party you worked so hard to plan.
