As we ring in the New Year, it might be time to start planning something big… your wedding day! All of a sudden, that too-distant wedding day is this year! When planning your wedding there are so many things to do it can be hard to know where to start. With all the small details like wedding favours, invitations, wedding colours and hairstyles starting to feel like information overload, it might be time to take a step back to make sure your top 5 needs are booked and taken care of, first. Once you cross these big 5 choices off your to-do list your load will feel much lighter and you’ll have that much more time to think about all the details you want to include for your wedding day.

First 5 things to book for your 2020 wedding

Though there are many other things that you’ll no doubt need to book in advance of your 2020 wedding day, these are the top 5 decisions you should focus on first.

The Venue

Depending on the date of your wedding, you might have this one booked already. If not, it’s definitely something you’ll want to put at the top of your 2020 wedding planning list! Especially if you’re planning to get married during a busy season like summer or have a specific location in mind, you’ll want to get this one locked down ASAP to avoid the possibility of conflict.

A Photographer

Hiring a photographer is a decision that can actually have a big impact on your wedding day and the memories you look back on for years to come. While it may be tempting to look for budget-friendly options, you really want to look at the portfolios of a few photographers before committing to any. Ensure that they take photos you love, are able to offer the support and suggestions you want when deciding on which photos you definitely want to see, and that you get along well. There’s nothing worse than getting your wedding album back and finding you hate the editing style or that your heads or dresses have been cut off of photos!

A Baker

Ordering your wedding cake is a task that you can really have some fun with. Choosing flavour combinations and cake designs is something you and your spouse-to-be or wedding party will no doubt enjoy doing together.

A Caterer

Depending on who you talk to, choosing the food for your wedding day might just be the most important decision you can make. Food is often thought of as one the most important parts of any event, so make sure you find a caterer and a menu that you and your guests will really enjoy.

Transportation

Choosing the best way to transport your wedding guests, wedding party and yourselves to and from the ceremony venue, reception venue and hotel can feel like an overwhelming task. No doubt there are many people to coordinate with and multiple locations to work with. Instead of the typical (usually expensive) limousine that only fits so many people, consider hiring a school bus as your wedding transportation this year! A school bus seems like an unconventional choice, but it’s a great way to get everyone to where they need to be safely and on time.

Reasons why a school bus is the perfect wedding transportation solution:

- Size – With many sizes of buses there is one to suit the size of your group
- Convenience – With plenty of room (and headspace!) for any number of guests, including any gifts, luggage or supplies needed, a school bus is much more convenient than a cramped limousine.
- Driver – All bus bookings come with an experienced driver
- Cost – School bus rentals are a very affordable, budget friendly transportation option
- Fun – There’s nothing like stepping back in time to your school bus days while you celebrate your big day with friends!
- Safety – All of our buses go through thorough safety checks and our bus drivers have excellent safety training.
