Wedding planning
Planning a wedding is easier when you break it into small steps. Use this checklist and adjust it for your family's customs.
## Six months before
1. Fix the date after matching the horoscopes
2. Decide your total budget and who is responsible for what
3. Book the wedding hall or mahal, since good dates go first
## Three months before
- Choose your caterer and finalise the menu
- Book a photographer and videographer
- Order invitations and start sending them
- Book the decorator, music and any entertainment
## One month before
Confirm every booking in writing and keep the phone numbers of each vendor in one place. Plan travel and stay for guests who are coming from other cities.
## Choose providers you can talk to directly
On Gettimelam you can view a provider's packages and prices upfront and contact them directly by call or WhatsApp. Ask for a clear list of what is included, so there are no surprises later.
> A calm wedding is a planned wedding. Start early, write everything down, and keep one person in charge of each task.
