3 Mistakes that grooms always make ahead of their wedding

Prior to their walk to the mandap in their sherwani or tuxedo, grooms may find themselves being an integral part of the planning and preparation for the ceremony that they will never forget. Yet, along the way to the aisle, there are many pitfalls and instances where they can make major blunders. If you are recently engaged and contemplating the extent of your duties as a groom-to-be, then read on. You may find yourself desirous of avoiding these common mistakes that first time grooms often make ahead of their nuptials.

Though you may be thrilled by your engagement, excitedly invited friends verbally can be tricky. They may assume it’s a casual invite and you don’t really mean them to attend the wedding, so they may not show up. Always create a concrete guest list and send out formal invites with an option to RSVP.

It can be tempting to let the bride’s family and your own handle everything when it comes to the wedding. After all, skipping the meetings will give you a chance to work or even focus on your outfit fittings or bachelor bash. But it would be wiser still to go along with them when they meet with the musicians, decorators and caterers. It will ensure that you inject your own taste and style into the ceremonies.

You probably don’t want your ex to find out from other sources, but it is often the best option. Making a personal call is like giving them a way back into your life as you may have to deal with a tearful exchange in case your ex feels betrayed or hurt.

Instead, focus on the present with your fiancée and let bygones be bygones!
