Wedding Planning: Maximizer vs Satisficer

Inspiration boards. They’re like the most important part of the wedding planning process, particularly for social media savvy brides.
Inspiration boards allow a couple to create a visual focal point for their wedding day. And they’re pretty. Brides like pretty.
These boards can be much more than just pretty pictures. These inspiration boards can be the key to keeping your sanity.
There are two types of brides: Maximizers and Satisficers.
Maximizers are the perfectionist brides who find it extremely difficult to make a final decision. These brides are bogged down wondering if they’re getting the best value or getting the exact detail that they desire. Because they are constantly wondering if they’ve made the best decision they often feel unsure about the choices they’ve made.
Satisficers, on the other hand, have already decided what is important to them and what it will take to satisfy their wedding needs. When they see a bouquet that is the right size & price or a bridesmaid’s dress in the correct shade of lilac they have no problem making a decision or purchase because these brides are confident that their needs are being met.
The satisficer brides are often the happy ones. Confidence and knowing what you want will do that for you.
Inspiration boards (and a great wedding planner) help you clearly define what you want out and allow you to know it when you see it.
