One of the mistakes couples will make during their wedding planning is that they would like to inject as many ideas as they can think of into their wedding. However, as the famous saying "Less is more", more ideas and items do not guarantee a more successfully wedding.

As a result, you should focus on the must-have items in your wedding. If you can do it right, you will certainly have a successful wedding. Below are some of the must-have items for your wedding.

A photographer who takes snap-shots

There will be at least one photographer in a wedding. The job of the photographer is of course to take photos in your wedding. By doing that the memorable moments in your wedding will be captured. However, most couples will just focus on the standard and formal photos the photographer will take. One of your guest and you will stand together and wait for the photographer to count "three, two, one" and take a photo. It will be a pity if all the photos taken are just this kind of standard and formal photos.

In fact you should hire one more photographer to take snap-shots. This photographer should help to take photos of everything in your wedding. They will really try to "capture" the memorable moments and you will find these photos more interesting even ten years after your wedding.

A professional master of ceremonies

A professional master of ceremonies can make your reception lively. Yet in most cases couples will just ask their friends or relatives to be the master of ceremonies. In fact I find this quite a strange phenomenon. You have spent plenty of time and effort to make your wedding reception perfect. You have found the best wedding favor, the most beautiful flowers and made the most perfect decorations. However, you do not find the best master of ceremonies.

We have to bear in mind that your friend, even if he or she is an extremely talkative person, may not perform well as a master of ceremonies. Your wedding reception should be somehow similar to a social event. There is no point to get a person who may not perform well to be the master of ceremonies. As a result, it is strongly suggested that you hire a professional master of ceremonies for your wedding reception.

A live band or wedding DJs

There is no doubt that you will need some music in your reception. However, couples may just choose some songs and have them played. In order to heat up the atmosphere, it will be better to have some live music.

For the music, you can either hire a classical band or wedding DJs. The decision is totally up to your preferences and the style of your wedding reception. At the end of the day, a classical band and wedding DJs should perform equally well if you are selecting them with the greatest care. As in the case of the master of ceremonies, you should never overlook the importance of the band and DJs.
