Try not to get too distracted by wondering if you should do something and focus more on whether YOU want it. This really helped us evaluate what we did and didn't want from our wedding. Do we want favours? No! Do we want the cake to be spectacular? Yes! I also think we didn't talk about our wedding plans much with a wide group of people - it meant we weren't getting loads of different advice (unsolicited or otherwise). We had a few people we could rant at or use as a sounding board. I almost treated it like a surprise party for our guests - I loved seeing their faces throughout the day going ‘Ahhh!'.
Emma: My favourite moment was our ceremony - given we were already married I didn't expect to feel quite so emotional! But something about my cousin marrying us and having so many loved ones in the audience, there was a sense of gravity to it!
Matt: I really enjoyed having the sweetheart table and being able to look around the room, taking it all in together. Each table was a flower that had a corresponding Lego flower for each table to build, he enjoyed everyone coming over the give us the flower for the bouquet vase we had.
