Preparing for a wedding is not an easy task and demands for patience, understanding and at times compromising.

Wedding preparation is always hectic at the first stages and towards then end, as the couple try to find service providers, and finalise on wedding arrangements respectively.

The last week always bares a number of challenges for example inadequate funds to complete payments, among other issues.

For brides, here are some of the things they need to do on the last week before their wedding:

1. Test drive the full look

Now that you’ve already bought a dress for your big day, testing it before the wedding day is significant. 

Fit the dress, ensure it is perfect and meets your expectation. Fitting your dress early enough provides room for adjustments in case of any issues.

2. Meet with your wedding planners and service providers

If you have a wedding planner, it is important to meet him or her a few days before the wedding to finalise on the plans, examine progress, and issue last instructions.

Failing to meet the planner, may mess up your big day.

3. Confirm attendance

In most cases, not every couple always raises enough funds for their wedding, it is therefore important to confirm the number of attendees, as this will help in amending the budget accordingly.
