Dance it Out
Now is the perfect time to decide on how you would like to present your first dance as a married couple. Are you the casual cool-type? A wedding-waltz? Or perhaps a cute choreographed number? Whatever takes your fancy – now is the perfect time to prepare. If one/both of you aren’t smooth on the dance floor, start practising with some online tutorials on YouTube or even enlist the help of a professional over Zoom.
Perfect your Beauty Regime
While we sit in a little bit of limbo, you can start improving your beauty game. Start with a few hair and face masks to give yourself the TLC you deserve! If you've been considering trialling a new regime, there has never been a more perfect time to test out anything new. Putting in the extra care now will make a massive difference on the day.

Write your Vows
This is often one that some might leave until last, but why not start putting pen to paper now? You will save yourself a great deal of stress by working on your heartfelt message now rather than the night before you’re due to head down the aisle.

Get Comfortable in Front of a Camera
Looking effortless in front of camera is not something that comes naturally to most and also not high on most people’s wedding checklist. Any good photographer will be well-versed in guiding you, however, you will both be grateful you considered it now rather than skirting the awkwardness on the day.
If you and your beau have time to spare together, have a look at ‘couple posing tips’ on YouTube to get you started. Most tutorials are easy to follow and you can make a fun activity out of it with a self-timer.

Prep your Playlist
Even if you have a DJ or musician booked, it’s likely that they will require a little guidance on your musical flavour of the night. You will know better than anyone which tunes will have your nearest and dearest up on their feet. Start selecting some of your favourite “must-play” songs now to get the party started!
