2. Feet hurt
The bridal shoes rub so much that you can hardly walk? How are you supposed to survive the wedding day? It’s simple: get comfortable, good quality shoes, gel inserts for the heel and ball of the foot, and blister plasters beforehand. In this way you ensure a pain-free performance. Cooling foot gel is also helpful to reduce foot swelling. And if your comfortable shoes are too boring for you, simply send them to Schuhnique – handpainted shoes and have your shoes hand-painted waterproof and individually according to your wishes.

3. The best man fails
Imagine that for some reason your best man or girl drinks copious amounts of alcohol before the ceremony and is no longer able to work or is absent due to illness. Dreadful! Think about who you trust with this responsibility early enough and discuss all scenarios with them. Why not opt for 2 witnesses per person and have a replacement in mind in the event of a spontaneous cancellation.

4. Illness on the wedding day
Not feeling well on your big day? Suddenly get a headache or suffer from nausea? Drink and eat enough, even the day before, and try to relax. Do you also have an emergency package with you: tablets for headaches, fever, sedative and circulatory drops, plasters, etc. First aid can be provided quickly and nothing stands in the way of the ceremony.
5. The wedding cake doesn’t come
Imagine you arrive at the wedding location in the ballroom and the wedding cake is still not there… Before the wedding reception, ask a few people to check the services and give them the contact details. Confirm a delivery time in advance and then hand off responsibility. So everything should run smoothly and nothing should stand in the way of your party.
6. The wedding photographer is canceled
You have booked the best wedding photographer in town and are looking forward to wonderful wedding photos. And then this one fails. Shock! Especially when it comes to lasting memories like wedding photos, you only want the best. Improvise! If possible, ask your best man to come up with an alternative spontaneously. In an emergency, a wedding guest should take care of the photos…Most of the time, however, the photographer takes care of a replacement himself. Just ask at the preliminary meeting.

8. Low spirits during the celebration
Instead of dancing, the guests are sitting in their chairs, bored and possibly all on their smartphones… To avoid this disaster happening to you, plan a varied wedding program in advance and make sure there is good music with something for every taste. Discuss your music wishes with the DJ, so you can be sure that there is something for every taste – ask DJ Starlight – Oliver Plattig, DJ Slick or DJ Chris Force, for example. Discuss with your groomsmen how your guests will be occupied during your absence during the couple’s photo shoot. This keeps the good mood. Also, keep your wedding guests entertained with a fire show from Wedding Fire Show.

9. The wedding ring suddenly doesn’t fit
They stand in front of the altar and put on their wedding rings. Worst case scenario: You can’t get your wedding ring off your finger… It can actually happen. But don’t panic! The hand swells up from the heat and sweating and you end up with a ring size larger. Therefore, do not have your wedding rings made in winter or go one size larger. Your fingers will always be a little thicker in summer.

10. Wedding night lull
There are also high expectations when it comes to the wedding night. Pressure and expectations are not very helpful in bed. Especially when the tension from the day in the hotel room falls away, tiredness and exhaustion spread. It doesn’t matter, after all you can postpone the love game until the next morning…
