Preparing for your wedding can be very overwhelming. That is why it is important for you to list down everything and have a wedding checklist. Otherwise, you will be more prone to missing out on important details that just might be the key to turn your wedding into the one that you have always dreamed of. Of course, the timeline is always important for someone who is preparing for her wedding. That is why these are the things that you need to do based on the length of time you have left before you say, “I do”.
Most people need 9 months to prepare for their wedding. Now you may think that it is a very long time but once you get started with the preparations you will realize that time will fly very fast and 9 months can in fact be pretty short. So 9 months before your wedding, you must already determine the budget that you have for it. That is a must in your wedding checklist. While having your dream wedding is very important, you do not want to start your marriage by being in debt so do spend within your means. Once you have determined how much you are willing to spend for your wedding, then you can proceed to reserving your venue, determining how many people you are going to invite, choose your decorations, get a photographer and a videographer, choose a caterer and make sure that they are available on your big day. Those are the things that usually get booked very fast so the earlier you do this, the better.
When it is only 4 months before your big day, your wedding checklist should include choosing your gown or meeting up with your seamstress if you are having one made. Also choose the kind of dress that you want for your bridesmaids. You may want to tie it in with your overall theme. This is also the time for you to start determining who you will be inviting to the wedding. Start preparing your guest list. What you can do is to come up with a first priority and second priority list. That way, if some people from your first priority list cannot make it, you can always refer to your second priority list so they can celebrate your wedding with you.
A month and a half before your wedding, your wedding checklist should include sending out your invitations, placing your announcement in the local paper, meeting with a trusted hairstylist so you can have “mock up” of how you would look on your wedding day. By this time, you should have your wedding rings engraved and the groom along with his groomsmen should have their attire ready already.
A few days before the wedding, start preparing your wedding speech. Do not go out there unprepared because chances are your emotions will get the best of you. Write it down so you can express everything that you want the groom and your guests to know.
