Let’s talk about happy couples, but more specifically, what happy couples do on their wedding day. After seeing so many happy couples who enjoy themselves and keep a smile on all day long, it’s easy to see the common denominators.

The number-one thing happy couples do is step away from decorating and coordinating on the day of their wedding. This doesn’t mean that they weren’t involved in the planning process, but just that they’ve handed off those final touches to someone they trust.

Another thing that promotes happiness for couples on their wedding day is a complete lack of awareness about any hiccups that are happening during the day. Mistakes happen, but great coordinators are able to handle and put out the fires without the need to let you know about them. If this sounds great to you, outline this as an expectation for your wedding day.

Focusing on the purpose of the day, rather than stressing over everything being “Pinterest worthy,” is another secret to a happy wedding day. Your union isn’t about the flowers, or the table setting, or anything else. You’ve done all you can up to this point, and now it’s time to focus on this happy occasion between you and your partner.

Another tip is to not hire vendors you don’t trust. This will keep you from feeling like you need to micromanage your vendors and help you let go of control. Lastly, leave yourself some wiggle room in the timeline. Too much structure can be stressful, whereas building in moments to breathe and relax will help you step back and enjoy the day.
