1. Define the style and the date.

Before anything else,think about what kind of wedding do you want: intimate or crowded, classic or modern, daytime or nighttime, in the city or in a natural setting. Once the style is defined, set a tentative date (and even better, two or three alternatives in case the venue you like is already booked).

2. Establish the budget

This step is essential.The budget will determine the size of the wedding. and it will help you prioritize. A good practice is to divide it into percentages:

  • Venue and catering:40%
  • Clothing and beauty:15%
  • Photo and video:10%
  • Music and atmosphere:15%
  • Others (invitations, gifts, extras):20%

3. Choose the ideal space

The place is the foundation of everything. Keep in mind:

  • Capacity for the number of guests.
  • If you provide in-house catering or allow hiring an external one.
  • Accessibility and comfort (parking, transportation).
  • Architectural style and the possibility of customizing the atmosphere.

In SpacePal you can find everything from outdoor estates to modern halls, adapted to different wedding styles.

4. Create the guest list

Make a first draft without overthinking. Then, adjust it based on your budget and available space. One recommendation: create three categories (essentials, desired, and optional) so you can easily trim if needed.

5. Hire key suppliers

With the venue confirmed proceed with the services that run out the fastest:

  • Catering
  • Photography and video
  • Music (DJ or live band)
  • Ambiance and decoration
  • Wedding planner (if you want to delegate the coordination)

6. Define the aesthetics and the atmosphere.

This is where your personal touch comes in: the color palette, the flowers, the tableware, the lighting. The idea is for everything to be cohesive with the wedding style that you chose at the beginning.

7. Clothing and alliances

Choosing the dress or suit takes time, so it's advisable to start at least six months in advance. The same goes for the rings, as they are often custom-made.

8. Invitations and details

Design invitations that reflect the essence of your wedding. They can be physical, digital, or a combination of both. Don't forget to include a small gift or detail for the guests, which can range from a symbolic memento to something practical to use during the party.

9. Schedule of the day

Create a clear timeline with arrival times, ceremony, photos, entrance of the couple, first dance, and opening of the dance floor. Having a schedule helps everything flow smoothly without surprises.

10. Enjoy the process

In the midst of all the planning, it's easy to forget what's essential: this is your day, and the most important thing is to live it with joy and calm. Surround yourself with trustworthy people who can help you handle any unexpected situations, and enjoy every moment.
