I'm getting married next year and currently in the middle of planning my wedding and I'm loving it. These tips are great. Please remember enjoying the planning process is so important as time goes by super quick and before you know it your close to your wedding! x
I would love to see a video regarding winter weddings. Feel it's a really overlooked subject and I've only ever seen myself getting hitched at Christmas time
I'm getting married in March, so no weather guarantee in the UK. It could snow, rain, or be 26c and sunny. I've really struggled to find any advice that doesn't involve relying on outside activities! For example: cheap hog roast? Nope. Marquee? Nope. Friends garden? Nope nope. Having to factor in coats, woollen suits... etc. It's a cheaper time of year in terms of bookings but it has its own stresses haha
Could you do a more detailed video on dealing with wedding vendors? You touched on lots of important things like contracts and VAT, would love to know more detail about it!
I know :) I was thinking more for the girls who aren't professionals as it would be interesting to hear an 'outside' perspective if you see what I mean. :D
I get married in two and a half months so I'm on the home run in terms of planning 💒👰🏻💐 but this was still really helpful and super exciting!! I cannot wait for our big day 🥂! Love watching you both on this channel 💞 xx
Getting married November 5th this year, engaged a month ago! So far got the ceremony and reception venues, rough guest list, 2 caterers to choose from, photographer booked, wedding dress bought. Lots to do but loving it, gotta get those invites out soon 😬
Currently planning a wedding.... these videos are so helpful! Would love a video on wedding favours, and decorations! Really struggling with the little bits of the wedding planning xxx
Ah this whole channel makes me so happy. I'm a qualified wedding planner, but when it comes to planning your OWN wedding, it's so confusing. We got engaged on Christmas Day and are getting married on 1st July this year, so life has been utter madness, considering that I've been working a full time job, blogging, studying and have been a bridesmaid in the time in between! My hardest part was making sure that it was 'our' day - both sets of parents have been quite determined that certain things be included. We've learned quickly how to make small compromises. Rather than fight them on small things that don't really matter, we let them have their way, and then fight them on the bigger things. Like, I didn't have an issue inviting certain people they insisted on, as they're paying for the food. I didn't mind having a slightly longer veil, because it made my mom so happy. But I insisted on choosing my shoes, and the cake, as those were really important to me - I'm wearing deep burgundy shoes, and we're having donuts instead of cakes ;) You guys make my life so much easier! x
Taking advantage (nicely) of talented friends is a great way to save money. I made the veil for a friend as my wedding gift to her, and saved her at least $100, and it was custom designed to match her dress. But DIY projects can also give you great quality time with the bride/bridal party. For one friend's wedding I spent an awesome evening hanging out with her and her mom making overlays for the table clothes, best night ever. And for another friend's wedding, the day before the wedding she went to a local grocery store and bought up all their roses, the rest of the day was spent with the bridal party making all of our bouquets and other floral elements. We had so much fun and I don't think she spent more than $200 on all the roses and supplies. :)
I find the planning has gone so quick. I'm 62 days away from getting married and it has gone mentally quick, I remember saying oh we have 2 years! Definitely advise to enjoy it because it really does fly by. Great video :) x
Yes i needed this - im such a procrastinator, and im afraid of crunching the numbers :S but it must be done. Thank god my MOH is an accoutant lol. Id love to see more info on scheduling or even just how you personally would write up a detailed schedule and how best to communicate it to your guests, like a day-of playbill or a wedding website or something
Congrats, wish you both lots and lots of happiness.:) Just remember, your big day is a celebration and so it really doesn't matter about what flowers you have or seating plans or anything like that as long as you enjoy it with your friends and family. x
Hello lovely ladies, I'm getting married in July and just beginning to add detail to my wedding and get organised. The planning/contact sheet for the day that you mention in this video - where can I find it? Looked on the blog but couldn't see it! Thanks xxx
Hi girls - I've been to your website and there's no PDF like you mentioned? Please can you tell me where I am find it? I'm getting married in November and planning it all myself so need all the help I can get! PS I'm so glad you're back xxx
I thought the hard part about getting married was being asked!!! Haha! No one warned me how hard the actual planning was! My mum finds it hard because she always imagined she would plan my wedding but as we're getting married abroad we've had to get a wedding planner and my fiance and I are mainly doing it ourselves.
I'm currently planning a wedding and my partner's family gave us a huge amount of money to help us pay for the wedding and said we had free reign to do what we want with it. My mum on the other hand, gave us a tiny amount a thinks she has the right to dictate how all of it is spent. I think she is being unfair and rude considering her contribution didn't even cover the dress she demanded for the wedding I don't think she should have that much of a say. I don't know what to do and every time we talk it always ends in a fight and how I'm a 'spoilt brat' for not doing what she wants. Does anyone have any advice for me?
An13la the only way to find out what is going on is to sit her down and talk to her. If she continues to then be demanding then it is your decision on whether to stop keeping her involved. Talk to your partner and see what he thinks. Hope everything will be okay. Either way you get to marry the person you love ☺
Try your best to talk to her about it again, and about what she expects, but if you cant come to some kind of agreement then maybe return the money? She'll still of course be part of the wedding but won't have the financial contribution to hold over your head. I hope it all turns out well for you!
I've spoken with my partner and he wants her out, but as I said I've already spent her money on her dress and can't really afford to give her the money back and still have the dress she wants. I've said to her calmly before I want to have my wedding the way my partner and I would like to celebrate our love and she responded with 'do you even want me at your wedding or in your life?"'. I might just have to pull the cord.
An13la from an outsiders perspective. That comment is emotional blackmail and it must be so tough to deal with. What sorts of things is she demanding? Was she demanding when you were growing up?
I know this would be a big thing but depending on the place you got the dress from and how long ago you got the dress some times they will let me return it
My top tip: overestimate every cost from what you expect. So many parts of my wedding ended up costing just that bit more than I had anticipated which added up when put together

I'm getting married in December of this year and I am supe excited, my fiancé is such a big support, he is helping with the planning process.
I would love to see a video regarding winter weddings. Feel it's a really overlooked subject and I've only ever seen myself getting hitched at Christmas time

I love this channel. It has helped with so much with all the planning, it could get so stressful.
I would love to see a video with some of Fleur's bridesmaids talking about their roles in the run up and on the bid day. :)
Philippa Wood Hannah was her moh and wedding planner

I don't even have a BF but I enjoy your videos so much :-) you go girls
Can you do a video of what to do before you get married. Like face masks, to have your skin ready for that big day.
What's VAT?
Sales tax in Europe.
I'm currently planning a wedding and my partner's family gave us a huge amount of money to help us pay for the wedding and said we had free reign to do what we want with it. My mum on the other hand, gave us a tiny amount a thinks she has the right to dictate how all of it is spent.

Was she demanding when you were growing up?

Please do a collaboration with chase amie for her wedding planning stuff! X
sound is heavily out of sync and one of the mics is only playing on the right channel
Can fleur please do my makeup for my wedding? 😂 it's hard finding a makeup artist that won't overdo it
I love how posh fleur sounds when she films with Hannah
I've been planning my wedding solo. Except he picked out the colors and said he wants to see me in a big puffy dress
'you will end up down shits creek without a paddle' hahah
