Your wedding day can feel somewhat hectic; there are a lot of things happening, some of them in a relatively short period of time, and the expectations are always staying high.
More from a 'general day-run’ point-of-view, but also from the wedding photography-related point-of-view, the ideas and pointers in our Top Tips for a Better Wedding Day series, would help you - brides, grooms and other wedding planners - to enjoy a better, smoother, wedding day.

When planning your wedding, sometimes it’s hard to remember all the different parts that build-up your event.
The list below is NOT a definite list, nor is the order of the parts in it, but it can be used as a basic break-down list, to mark the different parts in your wedding’s line-up.
