The first clarity step every bride should take before planning.
Most brides begin their wedding planning the same way — saving Pinterest photos, taking screenshots, bookmarking inspiration, and trying to figure out what feels right. Before long, all those beautiful ideas start to blend together, and it becomes harder to know which direction to go.
That’s usually the moment brides realize the real challenge:
It’s hard to make confident decisions when you’re not sure what your wedding style actually is.
When your aesthetic isn’t defined, everything feels a little uncertain. Décor looks “pretty” but not necessarily you. Venues you loved start to feel mismatched. And choices that should be simple — colors, florals, invitations — suddenly become overwhelming.
The good news? Getting clarity is simple and incredibly grounding.
To help you start with confidence, I created Free Wedding Style Worksheets, available in both printable PDF and digitally editable Canva format. It walks you step-by-step through the questions that help you define your tone, mood, and overall look before you dive into the rest of your planning.
