After soaking up the newness of <\/span>being engaged<\/span><\/a> and celebrating with an epic <\/span>engagement party<\/span><\/a>, it’s time for the <\/span>wedding planning<\/span><\/a> to commence. And while every <\/span>wedding planning timeline<\/span><\/a> will be a little different, we <\/span>always<\/span><\/i> recommend starting with a mood board. This is the key to creating a day that’s undeniably you. <\/span><\/p>\n

As you start to form a vision of your wedding day, a wedding mood board can help guide decisions and visually explain your desires to your <\/span>wedding team<\/span><\/a>. But where exactly should you start? Here’s a simple, five-step process to create a mood board that captures the essence of your personality, style, and wedding dreams. <\/span><\/p>\n

What is a Wedding Mood Board?<\/span><\/h2>\n

A wedding mood board is a carefully curated collection of photos that convey the look and feel you hope to create through your <\/span>wedding design<\/span><\/a>. It can be designed on platforms like <\/span>Pinterest<\/span><\/a>, Photoshop, Canva–or a combination of the three. We’ve already created a template for you on Canva, but we’ll get to that shortly.<\/span><\/p>\n

What are The Benefits of Having a Mood Board?<\/span><\/h2>\n

A mood board is essential when hiring and meeting with your <\/span>wedding vendors<\/span><\/a>. It’ll set you and your <\/span>vendors<\/span><\/a> up for success from the start since verbally expressing your wedding vision can sometimes be difficult. Having a compilation of photos that visually represents your desired look leaves little room for miscommunication.<\/span><\/p>\n

Steps For Making a Wedding Mood Board <\/span><\/h2>\n

Step 1. Discuss Wedding Dreams With Your Partner<\/span><\/h3>\n

Before you grab your laptop and type “Pinterest” in the search bar, do a little offline work with your partner. If there’s one piece of advice we want to ring true, it’s to really explore your relationship and who you are as a couple. Set a date night to discuss your vision and non-negotiables—have a pen and paper handy to jot them down as you dream of your day.  <\/span><\/p>\n
