4 Most Overlooked Wedding Planning Details And How To Get Them Right!

Wedding season is officially here — and with it comes a flurry of WhatsApp invites, frantic outfit planning, and endless discussions about the perfect venue. But beyond the usual hustle, there’s a new trend taking over — weddings that feel personal, meaningful, and full of thoughtful touches. It’s not just about how grand the celebrations are anymore; it’s about how memorable they feel.

Couples today want more than just a big party. They’re focusing on the little things — custom decor, carefully curated menus, and entertainment that sparks real moments of joy. And let’s be honest, who doesn’t love a wedding that tells a story, instead of just following the same old template?

To get the inside scoop on what’s trending, we spoke to a luxury wedding planner, Encasa — who’s also handling the upcoming wedding of Sufi singer Bismil. From creating intimate, wow-worthy experiences to balancing tradition with modern flair, they shared exactly what it takes to plan a celebration people won’t stop talking about.

Make It Personal 

The key to avoiding cookie-cutter weddings? Personalisation. “Our focus is always on personalisation,” they explained. “Instead of replicating trends, we spend time understanding the couple’s personalities, their love story, and the little things that matter to them.”

For them, this meant weaving their shared love for music and Sufi artistry into the wedding’s decor and entertainment. “We drew inspiration from their journey together, ensuring the wedding feels uniquely theirs. It’s not just about what’s trendy but what resonates with the couple.”

Subtlety is Key When Telling Their Story

When it comes to weaving a couple’s story into their wedding, balance is everything. “The key is subtlety,” the planner emphasized. “We incorporate personal elements in a way that enhances the event rather than overpowering it.” In their case, musical notes and lyrical themes have been subtly woven into the decor, along with moments during the festivities that reflect their journey together. “It’s about making these touches feel like a natural part of the celebration, not a staged performance.”

Expect the Unexpected

Even with months of meticulous planning, surprises can pop up on the wedding day. “Every wedding has its unique surprises, but the most memorable moments are when the team comes together to adapt quickly,” the planner revealed.  They shared a story of a time when they had to completely redo a venue’s outdoor lighting setup just hours before the event due to an unexpected technical issue. “It’s all about staying calm, thinking creatively, and having a team that’s prepared for anything.”

Trust the Process (and Your Planner)

Wedding planners aren’t just there to coordinate logistics — they’re there to bring your vision to life. But that requires trust. “Trust the process and communicate clearly,” the planner advised. “It’s essential to share your vision and preferences but also give the planners creative freedom to bring it to life.” Micromanaging every detail can hinder progress. “A collaborative approach leads to the best outcomes,” they added. “Planning things on time and allowing planners sufficient time to execute ensures everything is done to perfection without unnecessary last-minute stress.”
