Are you Suffering with Decision Fatigue?

With the long weekend(s) approaching a bank holiday is always a good time to catch up on some wedmin!

Your wedding day may be days, weeks or even months away.  Whatever stage you're at there's always so many decisions to make, it can get quite exhausting and decision fatigue can kick in!

To help things along we have a few tips to help you make the right decisions when researching and booking wedding suppliers.

Slowly Slowly, Catchy Monkey!

In other words - be patient! Wedding planning is meant to be fun so try not to feel like you have to do everything in one day as this will only lead to getting overwhelmed and the dreaded decision fatigue kicking in!

Focus on researching one category of supplier at a time, whether it's a makeup artist, hair stylist or magician (we have be known to fall under the this category too!) ;-)

​It might seem productive reaching out to a variety of wedding suppliers all at once but if you're making contact with too many, you're likely to have a very flooded inbox the next day which can be a bit daunting to sift through - even for the most organised bride!

Keep your Shortlists Short!

With so many companies to contact at the click of a button it's easy to get carried away filling in those contact forms or flipping across a DM.  Try to keep focussed and select your top 3 shortlisted companies first.  See how quick they are to respond and what sort of reply you receive.  

What sort of first impression do they give you? Were they friendly and helpful? Or did their response seem a little rushed or generic?

Did they answer any specific questions you had? Or did they skim over these and respond with a "one size fits all" price list?

You'll know when you find the right suppliers as they should fill you with confidence and excite you about working together, just like your husband or bride to be!
