Planning your wedding can be a stressful task. There are so many things to think about, from the venue to the catering to the guest list! It can be hard to know where to start. That’s why I’m here to help!
Based on your zodiac sign, I’ve put together some wedding planning advice that will make the process a little bit easier. Want to know what mantra an Aries would fire you up with for support when you’re receiving text responses only and not RSVPs you paid a fortune for?
Read on and align with the universe to start planning your dream wedding today!
You are more than just your Zodiac sign
When it comes to personal astrology, you have something known as the Big Three. This is made up of your Sun sign, your Rising (or Ascendant) sign, and your Moon sign. Your Sun sign is the one you are most likely familiar with. It’s the sign that you identify with the most and it represents your core personality. Your Rising sign is the sign that was rising on the eastern horizon at the exact time of your birth. It can also be considered your “public persona” or how others see you. And finally, your Moon sign is the sign that the Moon was in at the time of your birth. It’s said to represent your emotions and innermost thoughts.
So what does this have to do with wedding planning? Well, knowing all three of your signs can give you a more well-rounded view of yourself and help you to make decisions that reflect all aspects of who you are. For example, if you’re a Gemini Sun with a Sagittarius Rising and a Cancer Moon, you might want to consider a wedding that is fun and adventurous (Gemini Sun), but also has some tradition and sentimentality (Cancer Moon) – and it’s going to be a destination wedding! (Sagittarius Rising)
Of course, your Zodiac sign is just one part of who you are. But it can be a helpful tool in wedding planning, especially if you feel like you’re stuck or don’t know where to start. Use your sign as a starting point and then add in your own personal flair to make your wedding day perfect for you!
If you want to get a more accurate reading of your wedding planning personality, consider looking into all three of these signs. However, for this article, we’ll be focusing on your Sun sign.
Advice from the signs
Wedding planning advice based on astrology may seem a bit out there for some of you, but when you think about it, it actually makes a lot of sense! After all, your Zodiac sign can tell you a lot about your personality and how you operate in the world.
So why not use that knowledge to help you plan your wedding? Here’s some advice from the stars for each sign:
Aries: “I am ready to take on the world!”
As an Aries, you are a natural leader. You are confident and always ready for a challenge. When it comes to wedding planning, you will be the one taking charge and making things happen. You have a lot of energy and enthusiasm, which will be great for getting things done! However, you may also need to take a step back and delegate some tasks to others. You can’t do everything yourself! A great way to save money in an Aries wedding is by DIYing as much as possible. You are creative and resourceful, so put those skills to use!
Taurus: “I want everything to be luxurious, especially the food!”
As a Taurus, you are very loyal and reliable. You like things to be stable and predictable. When it comes to wedding planning, you will be very detail-oriented. You will want everything to be perfect, from the venue to the menu. However, you may need to loosen up a bit and go with the flow. Things may not always go as planned, but that’s okay! A lovely way to save money for a Taurus wedding is to use as many natural, local and seasonal products as possible – even wild crafting salads, liquors for toasts or flower displays in your centerpieces.
Gemini: “I want my wedding day to be fun and memorable!”
As a Gemini, you are very social and outgoing. You love meeting new people and trying new things. When it comes to wedding planning, you will want your wedding day to be a fun celebration. An example? I bet you have table icebreakers down and your vows probably already written! You will be great at coming up with creative ideas to make your wedding day unique. However, you may need to focus on one task at a time. You can get easily distracted! A perfectly Gemini way to save money on your wedding is by using your connections. Ask friends and family if they know anyone who can help with catering, music, or even the dress! And get your guests to bring their favorite book or poetry collection to the wedding to create a talking piece, as well as something delightful for you to bring home with you after!
Cancer: “I dream of my wedding day to be romantic and sentimental.”
As a Cancer, you are very nurturing and compassionate. You like to feel loved and secure. When it comes to wedding planning, you will want your wedding day to be romantic and intimate. You will probably want a smaller guest list so that you can really focus on your closest friends and family. You may also want to have a more traditional wedding. However, you may need to be open to new ideas. Don’t get too set in your ways! A very Cancerian way to save money for your wedding is by hosting your reception at home – it’s where you feel most comfortable and loved!

As a Virgo, you are extremely detail-oriented and have a strong need for perfection. When it comes to wedding planning, you will want everything to be absolutely perfect.

Find one with a garden for wonderful photos after your ceremony too.

As a Scorpio, you are very passionate and intense. You like to feel deeply connected to the people and things in your life. When it comes to wedding planning, you will want your wedding day to be an intimate and emotionally charged event.

You may want to have a destination wedding or a unique location. You may also want to have an unconventional wedding. However, you may need to be careful with your budget. It’s easy to get carried away when you’re planning a Sagittarius wedding!

However, you need to be careful with your budget. It’s easy to get carried away when you’re planning an Aquarius wedding! A great way to save money in a totally Aquarian way is to swap out the non-essentials for a donation to charity; think “thank you for your donation!” cards from the charity instead of favors, or recycling items from charity shops for décor, for tableware and for your wedding dress too.
