Here are Christy's 5 Quick Wedding Planning Tips:

1. Before planning really begins, sit down with your partner and create a list of the top priorities you each have for your wedding. As things move along check in with each other regularly to be sure that the decisions you're making really reflect your main priorities and that you're following your heart and your intuition every step of the way.

2. Hire wedding professionals you trust and really connect with personally. You will spend a lot of time with them throughout your wedding planning process and your wedding day, and the right team will add more magic to your wedding and your life than you can imagine!

3. Good etiquette never goes out of style. You may get overwhelmed with advice, opinions and wants from others, but if you can be strong and gracious at the same time, those moments when tensions run high will be just that - moments.

4. Give gratitude. Thank those around you who have contributed their time and energy to your wedding, as well as those who have helped shape your life. Your heart and theirs will be bigger for it.

5. On your wedding day, try to be in the moment. Slow down, breath deeply, look around and take it all in. Feel how much you're loved and savor every sweet second of it. If things don't go perfectly as planned on the big day, let it go. You're getting married (hooray!) and that's all that matters!
