Weddings are happy occasions but planning them? The wedding planning process is often more stressful than fun. From the registry to the invitations to finding the venue, and (yikes) organizing the seating chart, there’s a lot to think about. (There’s a reason many newly-engaged couples spend at least a few days thinking about eloping.)

Ma and Fortune’s Polina Marinova stepped out of the office and into Zola’s pop-up store in New York City to talk wedding planning tips that will help you create your very special day (and keep your inner bride- or groom-zilla at bay).
