Is there anything we need to consider/do differently for a weekday wedding?
Hi there. We're considering a weekday wedding, maybe a Thursday or Sunday. Is there anything ] different or unexpected we'd need to consider about having a non-weekend wedding?
Hunter Events NSW
When it comes to planning a weekday wedding, there are several factors to consider and things that couples can do differently to ensure a successful and memorable event for all involved.
What to consider: Guest Availability
Couples should consider the availability of guests when deciding on a weekday wedding. While some guests may have more flexibility in their schedules, others may find it difficult to take time off work or travel, especially out-of-town guests.
What to do differently: Notify Guests in Advance
To ensure that guests can make arrangements to attend the wedding, couples should send save-the-date cards and invitations earlier than usual. This will give guests enough time to mark their calendars and make travel arrangements if necessary.
What to consider: Guest Experience
Hosting a weekday wedding may pose challenges for guests who have work commitments or need to leave early. Couples should plan the schedule carefully to avoid inconveniencing guests and ensure an enjoyable experience.
What to do differently: Plan the Schedule Carefully
Couples should think about starting the ceremony and reception later in the day, giving guests enough time to get off work and travel to the venue. A shorter, more condensed ceremony and reception can also be a great option for guests who need to return to work the next day.
What to consider: Cost Savings
Weekday weddings can save couples money since many vendors and venues offer discounts for weekdays. However, couples should also consider minimum spend or guest count requirements that may be harder to achieve on a weekday.
What to do differently: Thorough research
Couples should research and compare prices to determine if a weekday wedding will save them money before finalizing a date. Thorough research will help couples get the best value for their money and take advantage of cost savings.
Overall, with early notification to guests, careful planning of the schedule, and thorough research into cost savings, a weekday wedding can be just as special and memorable as a weekend wedding.
What do we need to consider when deciding on a wedding planner?
Hunter Events NSW
When deciding on a wedding planner, there are several things to consider to ensure that you find the right fit for your special day.
Experience
You want to choose a wedding planner with a proven track record of success. Ask about their experience in planning weddings and how many weddings they have planned. A seasoned wedding planner will have the knowledge and skills necessary to handle any challenges that may arise during the planning process.
Services offered
Wedding planners offer a variety of services, from full-service planning to day-of coordination. Consider your needs and budget to choose the package that's right for you. If you're planning a destination wedding or have a particularly large wedding party, a full-service planner may be the best option. If you have most of the planning handled but need someone to take care of the day-of coordination, a day-of coordinator may be the way to go.
Approach to planning
Wedding planners have different approaches to planning. Some are very hands-on, while others take a more relaxed approach. Choose a wedding planner whose approach aligns with your own. If you're someone who likes to be involved in every detail, a hands-on planner may be the best fit for you. If you're someone who prefers to delegate tasks and take a more hands-off approach, a more relaxed planner may be a better fit.
Vendor selection
Vendors play a crucial role in the success of your wedding day. Choose a wedding planner who has strong relationships with high-quality vendors and has a solid vendor selection process. A good wedding planner will have a list of reliable vendors that they trust to provide excellent service. They can also negotiate with vendors on your behalf to help you stay within your budget.
Fee structure
Make sure you understand how your wedding planner charges for their services and what is included in their fees. Some wedding planners charge a flat fee, while others charge a percentage of your overall budget.
Communication
Communication is key throughout the planning process. Make sure you choose a wedding planner who communicates effectively and is available when you need them. A good wedding planner should respond promptly to your emails and phone calls and keep you informed of any updates or changes to the plan.
Cancellation and refund policy
You never know what may happen during the planning process. Make sure you understand your wedding planner's cancellation and refund policy in case you need to cancel or postpone your wedding. A good wedding planner will have a clear and fair policy in place to protect both parties.
Reviews
Reading reviews from past clients can give you a better understanding of the wedding planner's strengths and weaknesses and their ability to handle different situations.
Personal connection
You will be working closely with your wedding planner throughout the planning process, so it is essential to choose someone who you feel comfortable with and who understands your vision for your special day. Choose someone who listens to your ideas and communicates effectively with you.
Backup plan
Your wedding planner should have a backup plan in place in case of emergencies or unexpected situations. Ask about their contingency plans and how they will handle any issues that may arise.
By considering these factors, you can find a wedding planner who is not only experienced and professional but also a good fit for your personality and style. With the right planner by your side, you can relax and enjoy your special day knowing that every detail has been taken care of.

Yes definitely! A day-of wedding coordinator makes sure that all the plans the couple has made are executed smoothly on the day of the wedding.
A day-of wedding coordinator typically starts working with the couple a few weeks before the wedding, finalizing details, creating a timeline, and coordinating with vendors. On the actual wedding day, they oversee the setup, handle any issues that may arise, coordinate the ceremony and reception, and ensure that everything runs according to the planned schedule.
Hiring a day-of wedding coordinator can be especially helpful for couples who have planned most of their wedding but want a professional to take over the logistical and operational aspects on the day of the event, allowing them to relax and enjoy their special day x
