Popping the question “Would you marry me?” and saying YES ! in return sounds like a perfect beginning of a fairytale. But the tricky part is the journey that the couple runs through for getting to “THE DAY”. And among all the others, the biggest responsibility is of the parents. Definitely in recent times, many couples decide to marry when they are all settled in their careers and would be able to contribute to the rising costs, the responsibilities that parents have doesn’t lessen.

Planning a wedding is a huge task and you sure need a planner to do it. But before getting the planning team down on the floor, we suggest you assemble the family team so that it becomes all the more fun. As is said a wedding is not just the union of two souls, it indeed brings together two families.

We bring forward some of the ideas as to how you can include your family in the planning process which not only eases the task but also helps in the families getting along together better.

The first and foremost is to have both the families present in all the meetings that you schedule with the organizers. While we as planners understand the kind of wedding you need and present ideas accordingly, the families as the ones who get you better than anyone else can put forward their recommendations and ideas. Deciding on the budget, selecting the menu, the wedding style, the dress code, and the list goes on and having your family on the team makes for an ideal team.

Next comes the shopping, yay !!!! shopping for the perfect and flawless outfits for your big day, you sure need a shopping partner there. How about making a short shopping trip to your favourite city ? probably this might be a good vacation with your family before the wedding.

You might also want to make video diaries of all the family members asking them about how they feel about you getting married. Wouldn’t it be great to hear them all sharing their thoughts about you and your better half..


Last but not the least you also might want to discuss the type of Photography/Videography which might create a hell lot of discussion. Our suggestion to you is to hire two different sets of team for both the bride and the groom, one with the traditional approach and the other with a more candid approach.

Believe it or not, no matter how old you get, you always ned your family backing you in every decision of your life !
