This is only for the newlyweds to leave their tips to all B2B of things they should or should not do to make their wedding day the best day ever!!!

Get a day of event coordinator

Do not forget to greet your guest either at your CH or at the reception

Carry all numbers for all vendors

Do not let anyone bother you with anything negative

Spend time with your hubby

Dance a lot

Go over your must take list with your photographer and must play or must not play list with your DJ/band

Make sure someone in your party has a cellphone...make sure it is off during your ceremony.

Its your day enjoy every minute, it goes by way too quickly

Make sure you have an emergency kit

If I can think of anything else I will add here

All the best to all of you, happy planning

Eat and allow to be a guest at your own wedding. I wish I did this. Hiring a DOC was not necessary - I would have micromanaged anyway.

For the brides who don't want to go to their cocktail hour...GO! Honestly, I was one of those brides who didn't want to be seen by any of my guests until they announced us in the room as Mr. & Mrs. but we were actually taking pictures in the lobby when our guests started to arrive so the majority of them saw us. DH talked me into going to our cocktail hour which I'm glad he did...we got all our hello's out of the way and were able to enjoy ourselves for the rest of the night.

Keep re-applying lipstick

Eat as much as you can

Put all the tip money in small envelopes and have them ready for the vendors

Lastly, be calm and enjoy EVERY moment because the day goes so fast!

WEAR COMFORABLE SHOES!!!! Even though when I tried my shoes on, and they felt ok, I didn't walk around in them very much. I should have broken them in because my feet were killing me!!! Break them suckas in!!!

Break in your shoes.

Dance and spend time with your DH.

Let go of all the little things - something most likely will go wrong, it'll probably be little - don't sweat it.

Eat something!

Touch up your make-up.

Enjoy yourself - you'll be surprised how quickly the day passes.

Get your hair done before the bridal party.
Time flies by for the stylist and it may lead to a frenzied finish.
.
Reapply lipstick after the toast...it may be the last time you remember.
.
Try on your new stockings before hand. My first pair were so long I would need to be a giraffe for them to fit.
.
Pick a back up photo location if you see rain in the forecast.
.
Enjoy the day, the prep and each other.
