Weddings are an important milestone, and this is especially relevant when it comes to brides to be because planning for the wedding is quite a monumental task. However, this does not mean that you need to handle everything on your own, and it’s in fact not the healthiest way. After all, you’ll have resources around you that you should consider using, and it’ll definitely make all the difference when it comes to your ever-growing list of things to do. Now, we understand that the art of delegation is not something that you might be good at, so we’ll provide you with some handy tips to start off:
Know Your Priorities
It’s important for you to understand that you don’t have to handle everything on your own. Now, if you don’t intend to hire a wedding planner, that’s perfectly alright. However, in order not to experience burnout before your big day, you should first discuss and decide on three to five priorities that you want to handle on your own or with your partner.
For tasks that you’re not particular about, like stationery for your wedding reception, delegate these types of tasks to family members and friends so that you’re able to concentrate on the things that are truly important to you. Now, this isn’t to say that they will be making the final decision, but rather that they will be doing the initial research and shortlisting before coming back to you on their findings for you to choose from.
Hire a Professional Wedding Planner
Planning and managing an entire wedding is no joke. Although there will obviously be times when you enjoy the process, you also need to realize that certain tasks are more of a headache than a joy to handle. This is where hiring an expert a.k.a. a wedding planner or coordinator makes a lot of sense.
After all, they are the ones with expert and updated knowledge in the industry, and they also come with connections to related people or parties that are obviously useful to your future wedding. Rather than handle everything on your own, you could even save time, effort and money if you just use their expertise and personal trusted list of vendors for your wedding.
Utilize the Strengths of Others
Rome wasn’t built in one day, and your wedding planning is going to take a while. Although you obviously have strengths that will be useful to planning your own wedding, this is also a great way to spend time with friends and family members and utilize their strengths and talents to help you out when it comes to preparing for your wedding.
If you know you have absolutely no talent at all when it comes to decorating and you have a family member or friend who is much better at it, let them take the lead. After they have compiled a list of recommendations, you can then discuss and hash out the options with them in order to shortlist the best options and make your final decision. This is definitely a more efficient way of handling the planning for your wedding.
Brainstorming and Delegating
You probably already have tons of ideas which you just can’t wait to execute. Before going all the way over there, it’s always good to use others as a sounding board to see just how doable everything is. For ideas which you’re not entirely sure of, using people whose opinions you trust as a way to gain honest feedback is a good way to go about it.
Once you’ve discussed and narrowed down the possibilities on hand, you can then choose which task to focus on (either on your own or with your partner), and also delegate out the other tasks to various helpers in order that the entire process is a lot smoother and more efficient.
Learn to Trust and Follow-Up
Once you’ve assigned the various tasks to people whom you trust, you need to learn to let go and let them do it their own way. Of course, this is after determining that they are able to handle it on their own, and your role will now change to a more relaxing one, a supervisory.
Rather than giving in to the need to look over their shoulders and become overly concerned of their wedding planning progress, allow them the time to handle it on their own. This also gives you the freedom and time that you require to focus on handling the things that matter the most to you, and let’s face it, people are ultimately at their best when pressure is at a minimum and passion is at a high.
Jump on the Outsource Bandwagon
If designing is not is your strength, you might want to let someone with the expertise handle this task instead if you want the best wedding invitations. Sites dedicated to freelancers can truly be a blessing, and the best part about it is that it’s really affordable and easy to use. Likewise, if you have no clue whatsoever on how to plan and manage transportation for your wedding day, it’s best to let the experts in on the job.
