How to Have a Stress-Free Morning on your Wedding Day in Chicago
The morning of your wedding can really set the tone for how you feel throughout your wedding day. You really want to make sure that you start on the right foot and keep your morning as stress-free as possible. Preparing yourself as much as possible is the best way to ensure that the morning of your wedding will start on the right foot, so here are the things we recommend you do to make sure you have an enjoyable start to your wedding day.
Choose a Good Location
Making sure to pick a spot that makes the most sense and is the least stressful is the first big step. If you aren’t really sure on how to pick your getting ready location for you and your future spouse both, read this blog post to know more about your options. Having a location that doesn’t have too many logistics is the best way to ensure you aren’t worrying about minor details of the day knowing that everyone has a clear picture of where to be for the start of your wedding day.
Finalize your Timeline with your Coordinator
Before the wedding day, you definitely need to make sure you are budgeting enough time for the morning-of events. The getting ready timeframe is definitely the biggest reason why weddings tend to fall behind, so it’s important to give enough buffer time for things that you might not expect. We do our best to put together your timeline with plenty of time for things to run late but not too much time where you begin to get antsy. We know how long it takes to get dressed and how things always take longer than you would expect for your wedding day, so ironing out those details before the wedding is crucial to help you not be stressed the morning of your wedding!
Do Something Nice for Yourself
In the midst of all of the planning and getting closer to the wedding day, you need to make sure you are taking care of yourself and pampering yourself as much as possible. Doing some good self-care is really beneficial for helping you relax prior to the wedding and we think it’s a necessity to being able to relax more the night before and the morning of your wedding. You can get your nails done, go to a spa, just hang out with your friends - just make sure you are doing stuff that will help you feel good and rejuvenated!
Prepare the Space
When it’s time for your night before the wedding, it’s best to prepare the space as much as possible to make sure you or your friends and family don’t have to run around all over and have any hectic energy.

Remember to Relax and Enjoy
The whole point of all of this is that you are getting married and celebrating your love with your family and friends! The most important thing is to try not to dwell on anything that goes wrong (which there will likely be at least one thing!) and focus on what really matters for your wedding day. We want you to take some time and really be present with your family and friends for this day. Try not to get bogged down by the details and really remember as a whole that this day is all about you getting married - the other stuff is just an added plus!
We know how hard it can be to stop worrying about how your wedding will go after you’ve spent so long thinking about the plans and the logistics.
