Not long ago, my husband and I had a November wedding. We planned our wedding in January, and aimed for only a cozy, intimate wedding with our families and friends who are dear to us. Even though it was a small wedding, the planning was overwhelming. To many, I am considered a lucky bride because my husband, Justin, was involved in every decision making in the planning. For us, the wedding wasn't a "girl's thing", but it was our thing to do together. We decided on things like song list, the band, my bridal wear and shoes, his tuxedo, our flowers, our wedding card designs, you name it. We had no help from wedding planners, but we were lucky to have some relatives who pitched in to make things happen for us on that day. Plus, I also had the chance to do a lot of my wedding decorations and colour coordination by myself too.
Moving on, because we didn't have a wedding planner, there were some information that I picked up on my own, and I am just really glad to be able to share it with you. Something old, something new and definitely something borrowed! Here is a DIY bride mini survival guide with tips, ideas and reminders for your wedding planning.
