What tips or advice would you give future brides out there? Alecia: Excel spreadsheets are your friend! Agree and decide on a budget upfront and allocate funds according to how much elements mean to you. A wedding coordinator is worth every penny! For destination weddings or wedding weekends, I really recommend creating a wedding website. It was so easy and allowed me to constantly update details for our guests as our plans evolved as opposed to all up front in time for save the dates and wedding invitations. Before the wedding I included travelling tips and Cape Town must see’s. After the wedding I uploaded a photo gallery and a thank you message.
