Wedding Planner
Checklist
No matter how good your memory
might be you cannot rely on it for every detail you have to
remember espeically with everything you'll have on your
mind when you're getting ready for your big day
It's such an important day for
you it would be a crying shame if it was spoiled simply because
you failed to plan properly in the first place - and a properly
constructed checklist is the very best way you can ensure that
all of your wedding plans come to fruition.
A checklist with every tiny
detail and tailored tailored to your specific needs and
desires will certainly help relieve the stress and
help the special day go as smooth as possible
By having a well thought out
wedding checklist will ensure that you don't forget anything
and will enable you to relax, safe in this knowledge, and enjoy
the day itself.
Some of the things you should put
on your checklist are setting the wedding date and time,
reserving the date with a florist, photographer and DJ;
reserving the church and reception location. These are the
first things that should be done in the planning stages six to
twelve months before the wedding day itself.
Other important things for your
checklist include planning a budget, choosing the wedding party
and ordering the invitations. You also need to make
arrangements for a wedding dress, hairdressing and makeup. Not
forgetting that you also need to arrange for co-coordinated
clothing for your wedding attendants and, of course, you need
to arrange the all-important wedding rings with a
jeweler.
All of the above major things
should be arranged as early as possible so that you have plenty
of time for the small details later.
Don't forget to ensure that you
put reminders on your list for closer to the date. Reminders
for ordering your wedding flowers, the wedding cake, addressing
and sending invitations, a final fitting for the wedding dress
and groom's outfit and placing a wedding announcement in the
local press etc.
About a month to six weeks before
your big day you should go over your wedding checklist to make
absolutely sure you haven't forgotten anything.
There are, of course, many more
things than those listed above that you will need to put on
your specific wedding planning checklist that are personal to
your wedding, but the above will give you an idea of the things
you need to include.
Remember, as long as you keep
yourself organized with a checklist and give yourself plenty of
time to complete each task, you'll have the ultimate reward of
a happier and more stress-free wedding day.
