What is your No. 1 wedding planning tip for couples?

Make it all about you. Your wedding is a celebration of your unique love story, so let it reflect who you are as a couple. Whether it’s incorporating your favourite colours, a shared passion, or even a quirky tradition that only the two of you understand, every detail should tell your story. Don’t feel pressured by trends or expectations - If a formal dinner doesn’t feel like you, go for a laid-back BBQ. If you love to dance, create a playlist filled with songs that mean the most to you. The more personal the day, the more unforgettable it will be—for you and your guests. Remember, your wedding isn’t about meeting anyone else’s vision; it’s about celebrating your love, your way.

What’s your favourite personal touch you’ve seen at a wedding?

One of my favourite personal touches I’ve seen at a wedding was when the couple wrote personalized letters to each of their friends and family members. These letters included special photos and heartfelt messages, often recalling favourite memories or moments they had shared with each person. It was such a thoughtful and meaningful gesture that made everyone feel truly valued and appreciated. Guests were so touched by the effort, and it really added a personal, intimate element to the day. It’s a beautiful way to show gratitude and celebrate the relationships that have helped shape your journey together.
