Vanderpump Rules stars Katie Maloney and Tom Schwartz will be making their celebrity wedding official! Two years after their big wedding celebration, which was televised on their reality show, ‘N Sync’s Lance Bass revealed that the marriage did not have an official license. According to EOnline.com, the couple failed to properly fill out the required paperwork. Obtaining the license now suggests that Maloney and Schwartz will have a redo wedding any day now, though the plans are still hush-hush.
In celebrity wedding news, it looks like Tom and Katie will be officially tying the knot, as it was recently revealed that they didn’t file appropriate paperwork after their wedding two years ago. What are some must-do’s before your wedding day?
Cupid’s Advice:
Congrats, you’re engaged! Among the excitement as you rush to the alter, planning every last detail can feel like a juggling act. Here are some must haves before you say ‘I do’.
1. The License: Learn your lesson from Tom and Katie and get a license. This is perhaps the most essential piece to a successful wedding, considering it confirms the actual marriage. If you don’t know where to start, call or visit your local county clerk’s office. Remember that the license will take some time to be processed.

2. Meet the officiant: Prior to the wedding, plan a meeting with your officiant. This will give you time to go over the ceremony and inform the officiant of your desires. The added benefit of meeting beforehand is that if your officiant is a regular at performing weddings (ie: priest, rabbi, officer of the court) they’ll know the official documents you’ll need to send in as well.

3. Vendors: About two months before the wedding, touch base with your vendors again. Reaffirm that they will be at the agreed location at the correct time and presenting the correct menu. This is also a great time to get any questions you or they have answered.
