8 Wedding Mistakes Movies Have Taught Us Not to Make

by Niki - Inspired Bride Leave a Comment

If you’re planning a wedding, chances are, you want to make sure everything is perfect down to the last detail. You’ve probably seen a few wedding movies in your day where everything goes wrong and the entire ceremony ends up in shambles. Of course, this type of stuff rarely happens in real life, but that doesn’t mean that you shouldn’t prepare for the worst.

Watching a few movies on the Getflix streaming service before the big day will provide you with some valuable information on what you shouldn’t do. That way, you can give yourself a much better chance of getting through your wedding day without experiencing the same fate as characters in these films.  As a savvy bride, you should take lessons from these popular movies on what mistakes not to make!

1. Don’t Get Competitive

If Bridesmaids taught you anything, it should be not to get competitive. Plan and hold your wedding ceremony on your own standards and don’t compare it to anyone else’s!

2. Choose a Free and Clear Date

The last thing you want to do is end up booking a wedding venue on the same day as your best friend! As Kate Hudson and Anne Hathaway taught us, it’s best to make sure your wedding date is free and clear and no other family/friend events are planned close to that date!

8. Don’t Underestimate Yourself
