6 Things To Do 'AFTER' You Get Married

Congratulations !! You are officially married !! Now that you've had time to unwind after your honeymoon and settle back into a routine - it's time to address a few things that every couple must do AFTER they get married. 


1. Send thank you notes: Don't delay on this important task; we suggest you and your partner block out some time on your calendars to take care of it as soon as your honeymoon is over.  Ideally thank you notes should be sent out no later than 3 months after your wedding.  It's bad etiquette !

2. Have your wedding outfits cleaned and/or preserved: Even if you don't think your daughter is going to wear your dress some day, it's a good idea to get your dress cleaned sooner rather than later.  Gents, make sure your sherwanis and suits are packed away properly.

3. Order your wedding album: Schedule a weekend date (or three) with your sweetheart to choose your favourites and order your album.  This is especially important if your album was part of your photography package - you don't want to forget about something you paid for!  Make sure you communicate with your photography team to go over album layouts and styles.

4. Review your vendors:  Without your wedding vendors - you would be pulling your hair out.  Express your gratitude by posting a great review of their business or sending them an email / handwritten / video testimonial that they can showcase. If anything, just do it for other couples who deserve to discover your amazing makeup artist or fabulous florist.

5. Return or exchange any unwanted wedding gifts: Even if you use a registry, duplicate and not-exactly-your-style gifts will still happen. So don't hold off on taking them back to the store and choosing something that's a better fit; if you wait too long, you may not be able to. 

6. Legally change your name (if you're planning to, that is): If you've changed your name socially but haven't made time to do it legally, take an hour to collect the necessary documents and get the ball rolling. The longer you wait, the more likely it is that you'll create more headaches for yourself or misplace your marriage license.
