Wedding planning is an exciting, but stressful experience. Organizing the biggest event of your lives is no mean feat, and with so much to do before the big day it pays to use every tool at your disposal to achieve a perfect wedding day on time and on budget. This is why a wedding planning checklist is so important and why it will play a major role in your wedding planning process.
Simply put, a wedding planning checklist is an itemized list of everything you will need to do, book, buy and plan for your wedding. A checklist will be ordered by the number of months till your wedding day and will be broken down into easy to read segments listing everything you will need to do month by month, week by week and day by day.
You can get hold of a checklist free from many wedding websites where they are available to download and save on your computer. Most of the bridal magazines and printed wedding directories will also carry a wedding planning checklist which you can cut out and use. For the most part these checklists will follow a generic template for the average wedding. They will also usually be formatted for a time frame of 18 months, or 12 months.
The problem some brides can face is that this generic template does not fit with their wedding plans, perhaps because their wedding is of a totally different format or because they want to plan their wedding in a much shorter timeframe. However, even if this is the case, a free checklist can still be of much benefit to you, but you will need to write your own checklist to fit with the type of wedding you are planning.
Use the free wedding planning checklist as a framework so you know what tasks need to be completed for your wedding and design your own checklist within the timeframe you have before your wedding day. Make sure you allocate sufficient time to complete a task, source vendors and suppliers and don’t forget small details such as collecting items, your pre-wedding parties and dress fittings.
Keep a copy saved on your computer so you can edit it at anytime should you need to or print off more copies as required. It is also worth giving a copy of your checklist to those people who will be helping you throughout the wedding planning phase such as your maid of honor, your groom and your mom. Note down any important dates on a calendar and keep a copy of your checklist on your noticeboard so you can refer to it quickly when needed.
