Even with the overall economic slowdown that India has been subject to in the past year, this country’s wedding industry has no plans of slowing down anytime soon. In 2018, India’s wedding industry was worth $40 billion with a prospect of tremendous growth in the near future.

This growth in the industry can be attributed to several factors, the most important of them being India’s fondness of lavish ceremonies. So, here is a wedding planning checklist that will allow one to ensure that there is nothing amiss from the grandeur of their wedding ceremony.

• Wedding destination

Fixing the wedding destination can be an arduous task. Especially with all first-choice destinations getting reserved ahead of time, it is best to start with fixing a location as the first thing to do in your planning checklist.

• Jewelry
  

With the price of gold increasing steadily, it can be difficult to finance the purchase of jewellery at a short notice. It is, thus, crucial to ensure that wedding ornaments are purchased well before time.

Nonetheless, the easy availability of advances like a loan against property for weddings has made it much easier to finance the purchase of such highly priced items in recent years.

• Hire a wedding planner

For everything else, there is a wedding planner. When it comes to knowing how to plan a wedding, it is best to transfer all responsibilities to professionals. They can take care of all necessary arrangements to make this ceremony picture perfect. Starting from catering to flowers, hiring a make-up artist to organising the entire event, a professional planner can manage every aspect efficiently.

With this wedding planning checklist in mind, the occasion can become a lot hassle-free, and every aspect to it can be managed with ease.
