Wedding was a great success

How's your planning going so far? How much time do you have left before your big day?

Hi Kaitlyn! Welcome! After my wedding, I posted this discussion with some advice so feel free to check it out! https://www.weddingwire.ca/forums/bam-wedding-advice--t1446

If we could have afforded a day-of coordinator, it would have been so helpful! I have some regrets about how some of our vendors handled things but it was out of my control and what they say about your wedding day is so true! Everything is wonderful and the little things don't bother you in the moment! I actually forgot to put on my veil and realized halfway through the ceremony that we had left it in the room! Haha luckily I had only rented it instead of buying one! And I'm actually glad that I didn't wear it because it would have blocked my hair and they did a beautiful job with it! (We did go back for it after and get a few pictures with it.)

Also, make sure that your contracts clearly state timelines! I was positive that our videography contract had a timeframe that they had to give us the videos but after going through it again, I can't find that clause and we only just got our videos this week! (almost 13 weeks later!)

Other than that, I think we did everything we wanted and there wasn't really anything that I wish we'd done that we didn't get to!
