It is very important that people who assist you in organization, are on the same wavelength with you, understand your preferences and share your emotions. We recommend to meet with them personally and to discuss all issues you are interested in. Don’t hesitate to ask their advice or just several stupid questions! Maybe, it will be your photographer who will advise you the beautiful location or fresh idea for wedding love-story, and florist will advise what flowers are cheaper in this season.

7. Event timing. When preparing wedding timing, you have to take in consideration the time required for installation of necessary equipment by musicians, site decoration, etc. Discuss in advance when they can arrive at the site, how long will it take to decorate each area at wedding and to install musical equipment. If your event is planned in the country and it is possible to start site decoration a day before, it is better to benefit from this opportunity.
8. Sign a contract with all terms and conditions of your cooperation. Due to the following reasons it is better not to rely upon your oral agreements.
   - The contract is required in order not to miss any details. All of us, we are the people and have subjective understanding of what we’ve heard. You will sleep well without ideas like: “Did I really tell to come at 8.00?”, “Will decorator take the correct flowers?”, “How many hours does DJ work?”, “How much I have to pay him for extra hours of work?” “What advance payment did we give for a cake?”
   - Your wedding is unique for you, but for experts it is their everyday job. Naturally, the expert may get something wrong or forget something. In addition, availability of contract with signatures will promote more responsible attitude to the event and will make your communications with expert more efficient.
   - Any amendments to the contracts or arrangements with contractors should be mandatory registered in writing or at least saved in your e-mails. Your site manager may just forget that you booked restaurant till 2:00, not till midnight, therefore, it is always useful to state your oral arrangements on the paper. Catering for contractors. Before signing the contract you have to discuss this issue with each expert personally: wedding photographer spends 12 hours consecutively with you and he definitely needs a good lunch, but you may offer just small snacks to contractors who work at your wedding less than 4 hours.
9. Have confidence! Sometimes it is difficult to cope with a wish to control everything. This may result in additional stress.
10. Sometimes take a break in preparation, even when your efforts are so pleasant and important. Please, remember that primary you are a couple in love, but not the animators.
