Your wedding day is a day for you to enjoy, soak up the love, and make cherished memories. And delegating tasks allows you to do just that.

This also allows friends, family, and loved ones be apart of your day, love, help, and support you.

  • Appoint a Point Person Having point people on a wedding day can be essential and act as your go-to resource.

  • Cell Phones Your wedding day is when you want to be fully present in the moment, consider passing your phone off to a trusted individual who can handle calls, messages, and logistics. Keeping the phone charged and easily accessible is vital during the initial moments of your wedding day.
