Participants who were offered fewer choices made clearer decisions and felt more satisfied with their selections. This research supports Amoriah\u2019s use of a Decision Dashboard, curated concept reveals, and the \u201cDecide\u201d stage of the Amoriah Process by confirming that structured choice reduces decision fatigue during complex planning situations such as Indian weddings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\" eplus-wrapper\">Allen, J., O\u2019Toole, W., Harris, R., &amp; McDonnell, I.

It emphasizes that delays and confusion often occur when timelines are not synchronized and when responsibility is not clearly assigned. The authors highlight the need for real-time coordination, backup planning, and operational leadership during live events.
