Planning a wedding involves making decisions surrounding big and small details. While couples often focus on major elements of the big day, such as the venue, décor, and catering, there are several overlooked details that are still crucial for a successful wedding day. In this blog, we’ll discuss a few often-overlooked details you need to plan for a wedding.
Transportation and Parking
Transportation and parking issues can prevent guests from arriving on time for the ceremony. Additionally, they cause frustration and problems for local and visiting guests. Make transportation arrangements clear and convenient for guests, especially if the venue is in a remote location or parking is limited. Consider providing shuttle services from designated pickup points or arranging for rideshare options. By taking time to plan transportation and parking, you’ll ensure guests can have a smooth experience making it to your wedding.
Restroom Facilities
While bathrooms may not be the most glamorous detail of your wedding, they’re critical to the comfort of your guests. If your venue doesn’t have bathroom facilities on site, you must rent a portable bathroom. And if that’s the case, you must determine which type of portable restroom will be best for your event. Consider the necessary ADA accommodations and the weather to decide on the unit type you need. Don't overlook the importance of having clean, well-maintained bathrooms!
Weather Contingencies
If your wedding venue is outdoors, you’re likely dreaming of sunny, mild weather on your wedding day. However, no matter what the forecast says, weather can be unpredictable. To ensure there are no hiccups in your festivities, plan contingencies for changes in weather, such as a tent or indoor space for rain or fans and shaded seating options for unexpected warm weather.
Now that you know about three overlooked details you need to plan for a wedding, you can make sure you plan every necessary detail of your wedding. Though parking, bathrooms, and weather contingencies may not be the most exciting details you plan for in the lead-up to your big day, they will ensure you can get hitched without a hitch.
