With the start of the New Year and many new engaged couples following the holiday break, there are wedding ‘to do’ lists popping up all over social media and blogs. While a ‘to do’ list is super helpful, I think it’s important to recognise they can also be overwhelming and rush you into planning.
In my opinion, a wedding ‘to do’ list shouldn’t overshadow and come before connecting to what your values are as a couple, and what you want your wedding day and wedding planning to feel like.
In order to help you in a practical way with this, I’ve pulled together my wedding ‘to feel’ list. A list of 10 ways to feel as you plan your wedding, to guide how you want to feel on your wedding day.
So for just a moment, let’s put aside your wedding ‘to do’ list and spreadsheets, and connect with your feelings about this wedding your dreaming up.
Your Wedding ‘To Feel’ List
Connected to each other throughout the process.
True to the values that matter most to us.
Confident in the choices we’ve made together.
Authentic to who we are as a couple.
Positive about how we’ve spent our money with intention.
Empowered to say yes to what feels right and no to what doesn’t.
Proud of how we’ve navigated challenges together.
Supported by the people we love.
Excited about the day we’ve created together.
Grounded in the love and commitment we’re celebrating.
Couples Wedding Workbook
If you’re looking for more guidance on how to connect with your partner and your values in order to create a wedding your truly love and don’t overspend on, I want to help.
I created a couples wedding workbook, designed to help you reconnect as a couple about what matters most to you for your wedding.
It features 50 heart-centred questions to ask yourselves to help you focus on what really matters for your wedding day. And with an added sustainable mindset.
This workbook is for you if you’re looking to:
- Reconnect with what’s meaningful to you and your partner for your wedding day.

- Foster meaningful conversations to help you design a day that deepens your connection as a couple and with your loved ones.
- Plan a celebration that aligns with your values – including sustainability – that reflects your unique relationship as a couple.

A Freebie For You
If you’re not sure if this couples workbook will actually help, or if it feels like another purchase when you’re already spending so much on your wedding, then I created a freebie for you.
