How to SURVIVE A WEDDING

While wedding season is an auspicious and exhilarating time, it is also a hectic period for families, planners, vendors, caterers and, of course, the soon-to-be married couple themselves.

Being one of the biggest days in a person's life, weddings are organised with an urgency to bag the best venues, lock in the most exotic destinations, and pull off a veritable fairy tale. Beautiful as this might be, it can leave couples feeling overwhelmed by the million details that they have to get right. However, with this list of wedding tips and hacks from India's celebrity wedding planners that we've curated for you, you're bound to go in feeling prepared!

BLOCK YOUR DREAM VENUE IN ADVANCE

During wedding season, venues and destinations are likely to experience an overflow of bookings given the sheer surge in demand for the best locations. In order to not miss out, make sure to book the venue of your dreams well in advance. “Booking one’s venue a year and a half in advance or at least six months before the big day has become the new norm,” Ambika points out. “Whether it is a conventional wedding hall, an outdoor setting in an exotic destination, a boutique hotel, or a magnificent heritage property, ensure that you don’t miss out on the location you have your sights set on.”
