After my boyfriend proposed to him and touched his heart, the next step is of course to start preparing for the wedding! Compared with westerners, orientals always pay more attention to traditional etiquette. At this time, the couple must communicate constantly in the two families, reach an understanding, and hold a wedding that is satisfactory to both sides and warm!
The following is the editor's experience in preparing for the wedding. Of course, everyone's situation is different and things can be adjusted or changed. I hope everyone can realize the beautiful wedding banquet in their dreams!
Step 1: Determine the wedding date.
With the intention of getting married, the first step is to "see the sky". In Taiwan Province Province, most elders are used to looking for masters to calculate the birthdays of new couples, and choosing some auspicious days for new couples to choose from, including the date of marriage registration, the date of wedding reception and the date of bed installation. If there are no special thoughts at home, the two can also choose some dates or festivals that are meaningful to each other, and then arrange the next follow-up preparations after setting the time.
Step 2: Book the banquet venue.
If everyone, like an editor, calculates the wedding date through a master, it is safer to book the banquet venue early! The reason is that the so-called "good day" is only a few days a year, so it is impossible for a few people to prepare for the wedding reception. If you have an ideal banquet place in mind, grab the approximate number of tables first, negotiate quickly, and then pay the deposit according to the regulations of the venue and the hotel. Wedding preparations are half done.

Step 3: Wedding Shooting
Again, of course, it is the wedding dress that all girls are most looking forward to! The editor suggested that if time permits, there is no need to try more, because each bridal shop and studio has different styles. Take your time and you will have a chance to find your own "destiny"!
Wedding dresses are needed for wedding photos and banquets. Most wedding dress manufacturers have introduced the so-called "package price". Before signing a contract, you must first look at the contract items, which are provided and which need to be prepared by yourself. After signing the contract, you can finalize the date of shooting the wedding dress. It is recommended to shoot in the first half of the wedding reception, so that you can have more time to make photo albums, thank-you cards and even apply them to subsequent wedding invitations or films.
Step 4: Determine the candidate: bridesmaid/bride secretary/photographer.
After solving the wedding dress, we must finalize all kinds of candidates and roles for the banquet that day. Such as external host, bride secretary, wedding record photographer, etc. When the candidate's schedule in mind is OK, it is necessary to pay a deposit appointment without saying anything; Then there are the matchmaker, ceremony host, bridesmaid, best man, flower girl and other internal roles, as well as other relatives and friends who want to help. It is best to confirm the time with the other party three months in advance, so that everyone can make time in advance.
Step 5: Book the wedding cake.
The preparation of wedding cake is relatively simple, and the couple can decide three months before the wedding reception. At that time, the editor often took advantage of his vacation to invite many cake shops for afternoon tea tasting, which was a little lucky for him in his busy schedule!
After choosing a store and paying the deposit, the store will confirm the contents and packaging with the new guests about one month before the banquet, and confirm the number of boxes two weeks ago. It is suggested that we can order 10 to 20 cases again in case of emergency.
Step 6: Prepare the surrounding articles.
One to two months after the countdown to the wedding reception, it officially entered the "craziest busy period", because at this time, many things that have been arranged in advance have to be confirmed back and forth, including the confirmation and mailing of wedding invitations, the purchase of wedding gadgets, growth films, love stories and the venue layout broadcast on the wedding reception day. There are all kinds of trivial things that add up to let the couple burn their candles at both ends.
The editor suggested some small things, film production, etc. It should be finished as soon as possible to avoid running around all day and dealing with these things at home. It's really frustrating!
Step 7: Finalize the details/prepare etiquette supplies.
Almost a week or two before the wedding reception, no matter the selection of wedding dress, the confirmation of the number of wedding cake boxes, the progress of the wedding, the progress of the movie, the music played on the same day and so on. We must make a final decision. In addition, there are some traditional etiquette supplies, such as wooden boxes and gold ornaments boxes for engagement, as well as some six-ceremony, twelve-ceremony and head-tail ceremony for men and women, which need to be prepared at this time.
It is suggested that things that will not be used again may only be used once, such as wooden boxes with head and tail gifts, which can be rented from custom shops.
Step 8: Take care of yourself, take care of yourself!
Although the process of preparing for the wedding is tedious and hard, it must be remembered that maintenance is necessary. Regardless of the bride and groom, the mask and exfoliation should be applied regularly, and then the makeup will be better; Don't eat too greasy, too sweet, too salty food, so as not to get out of shape, edema and play beautifully that day!
