• Don't let anyone else's advice stop you from having the wedding that makes you the most comfortable.

• Get your groom's input and delegate tasks to him in the planning process.

• Take time to really look into you soon-to-be spouse's eyes as you exchange vows. That look, that moment will last forever.

• Plan all you want up until 6 p.m. the night before. Then, turn everything over to your planner and enjoy your day.

• Hire a top-notch wedding planner. And trust her recommendations.

• Get a great photographer. Your photos will last beyond your lifetime so make them unforgettable.

• Don't try to do everything yourself. Let others help.

• Plan one little surprise during the big day for each other. It's something you will always remember.

• Pace yourself with planning and enlist 3 or 4 people to be good, supportive, enthusiastic helpers.

• When you like something, stick it in your must-have folder. Then stop looking.

• Never rush to buy your dress. It's your day, so take your time to find the one you've been dreaming of.

• Don't be afraid to utilize local businesses.
