🌿 Defining Your Wedding Priorities

Let’s take a deep breath and zoom out for a second.
Before booking vendors, choosing colors, or making a single spreadsheet—let’s figure out what actually matters most to you both.

Here’s a simple, heart-centered exercise to help you get clear:

✨ Step 1: List Your Top 3 Priorities

Ask yourselves:

What are the 3 things we care most about on our wedding day?

Here are some ideas to get you thinking:

• Amazing food + drinks

• Photos that capture the feelings

• Dancing the night away

• A relaxed, low-stress vibe

• Having all our people in one place

• Sustainability + minimizing waste

• A ceremony that feels us

• A unique location

• Great music

• Meaningful traditions

Write down your top 3 (no judgment!). These are your north stars.

✨ Step 2: Share Your Why

Take turns explaining why each one matters to you. This part is sweet, and sometimes surprising. You might even learn something new about your partner 💛

✨ Step 3: Let the Priorities Lead

Use this list when you:

• Set your budget (more toward priorities, less elsewhere)

• Talk to vendors (let them know what you value!)

• Navigate tough decisions (ask: does this align with our top 3?)

This isn’t about having a “perfect” plan—it’s about building a day that reflects you.

📝 Bonus Prompt:

“What do we want this day to feel like?”

Sit together with this one and free-write for 5–10 minutes. Dream out loud. Don’t overthink it.

Do you want the day to feel…

• Joyful? Relaxed? Magical? Sacred? Playful?

• Like a cozy campfire or a raucous festival?

• Like your favorite Sunday or your favorite concert?

This prompt makes everything else clearer. It becomes your filter for decision-making.
