Wedding day set up and clean up is like biking up a hill. Set up is the slow climb to the top, taking lots of effort to perfect every detail. Clean up is the exact opposite. It’s fast and things are moving quickly to get you to the bottom of the hill (or out of your venue on time) in the most efficient way possible. While clean up isn’t the most fun thing to think about during wedding planning, it is a critical piece of the big day that you absolutely need to think about before the music is off, the lights are on, and you have to get everyone and everything out of the venue. Here are my 7 tips to help you develop a clean up plan and ensure that it runs smoothly on your wedding day.
