Mistake #1: Lack of Communication and Consultation

Mistake #2: Mistiming Trial Runs

Trials are the perfect time to put the consultation into practice—but don’t jump the gun. Scheduling a trial run too soon can give the bride time to change her hair (or even her mind) but waiting until the last minute can result in a last-minute scramble, causing unnecessary wedding day blues.
