Arranging a quick wedding can be difficult. After all, there are so many things to consider… and in such a short time! It may sound like too much stress.

Quick wedding
So you have decided to take this big step and would like to celebrate the wedding right away because you simply can not wait. However, you get nervous and stressed when you start thinking about how to handle it all in such a short amount of time. You want it to be perfect.
Relax and take a deep breath, your nervousness does you no good. Everything will be great if you just relax and start planning it one small step at a time.
Here is some advice.
Place and date
There can be many reasons why a couple will get married as soon as possible. Maybe they will move together to another country. Maybe they have a baby on the way. In any case, remember that there can be many things that slow you down, no matter how much you want to hurry.
For example, waiting lists for both civil and religious weddings can be really long. This is especially true for big cities and popular places.
This is why you should first decide on the location of the wedding. You can then start planning it, depending on the date you have found.
Inform your guests
Once you have the date and location, the next step is to make a guest list and notify them of the event as soon as possible.
If planning is difficult for you and your partner, it will also be difficult for your guests. They will need to check their calendars, make changes and get organized in order to participate.
So the sooner they get to know it, the better. Remember, the earlier you send out invitations, the more people can come.
Again, this must not happen at the last minute!
Hire a wedding planner for your quick wedding

If you have no idea what you want and you also have very little time to organize it, it is best if you hire a professional wedding planner. They can help you and you will not be so stressed.
For example, a wedding planner knows how to organize such an event. They already have a portfolio and a selection of venues for receptions, photographers, themes, price range, etc. This is why you save valuable time with a planner.

The groom’s suit
Go out and look for the ideal clothes for the apartment. If it requires customization and modification, make sure it can be completed on time.
You do not have much time to go from store to store looking for a dress or a suit. It often takes too long to get something tailored to the occasion, so choose a store that already has something you like. You can be really lucky and find the perfect clothes on the first day!
Another thing to keep in mind is whether the suit or dress needs changes. Set aside about twenty days for it. Therefore, you need to start looking and making a decision as soon as possible.
Also, remember if you have bridesmaids, their dresses will also take some time. Try to choose the same design for all of them; it saves you a lot of time.

The details
If you do not have a wedding planner, you have to take care of all the details yourself, such as rings, photographer, stylist, etc. As soon as you can.
Of course, you can always ask your friends and family for help in doing so. Many of them have probably already held a wedding before. Lean on them for advice on contacts, proven experience and personal opinions.
Stay calm while planning a quick wedding
Even just planning a regular wedding well in advance can be a source of a lot of stress. So it is logical that a quick wedding is stressful.
However, it does not help to be too nervous or to get angry about any unforeseen event. On the contrary, such an attitude wastes your time and burdens you. You need to be patient and keep your spirits high to continue with the planning. Stay calm.
Accept that there will be some unforeseen events and that not everything will happen exactly as you planned it. Improvisation is an art and this is a great time to practice it! Keep in mind that it’s all about enjoying your wedding day, including any mistakes or successes it may have.
It is not a competition, so remember to relax before your big day.
The honeymoon
Finally, let’s talk about the honeymoon. It’s a completely separate chapter when it comes to planning. So if you want to plan it more carefully, do not do it right away. You can decide on your perfect honeymoon at a later date.
In any case, you need to be aware of whether you want a honeymoon abroad or in the country where you live. If you want to cross borders, first make sure all your travel documents are in order.
Otherwise you can only travel domestically. In any case , you can always postpone the trip and take it later, so you have better time to prepare.
