In today\u2019s technology driven world, many couples resort to planning their wedding virtually. This may be due to busy work schedules, or having an out of state wedding, or for a number of other reasons. Whatever the reason may be, due to video chats, virtual tours, and more it\u2019s easier than ever to plan a wedding virtually.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here are some of our best tips for planning your wedding virtually. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Discuss Your Wants & Preferences With Your Partner <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Before you begin planning (in person or virtually) it\u2019s important that you and your partner discuss your preferences when it comes to your wedding. This will help you both get on the same page and will make the wedding planning process much easier. Decide on the season you want to get married, your budget, wedding location, color preferences, and anything else that is important to either one of you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It\u2019s also a good idea to create a shared calendar to help keep track of important dates, appointments with vendors, and include payment reminders, or other important notes. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Create an Inspiration Board<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Pinterest is a great tool for doing this. Not only does it have a ton of ideas and inspiration available to you, but it also a great way to stay organized and share ideas. An inspiration board will also help you narrow down your ideas and prevent planning from getting too overwhelming.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Research Wedding Vendors<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Once you have a list of what\u2019s important to both of you, you can begin researching vendors. This includes ceremony and reception locations, officiants, photographers, videographers, florists, limos, wedding planners, and anything else you might need. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

For ceremony and reception locations take virtual tours of the space online if they\u2019re available, or if they don\u2019t have one on their website, contact the hall to see if the have the ability to take you on a video tour. You should also do some research into reviews from past brides on Google, their social media accounts or wedding review sites. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

For the rest of your vendors it\u2019s also recommended to check out online reviews, as well as seeing examples of their work on social media. This will help you narrow down your search and once you have found a few you like, you can see if they are available to speak with you over the phone or even a video consultation. At The Bleu Studio, we offer virtual consultations to potential clients which can be scheduled here<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
