Keeping all your wedding papers and contacts organized is a must when planning a wedding.
There are many books and organizers available at book and stationary stores. You can, however, quickly put together your own wedding planner, personalizing it to suit your needs. Not to mention, you will save yourself some money.
You will need:
1 3-inch three-ring binder
10 to 12 tabbed separator pages
Lined loose-leaf paper
10 to 12 clear, top-loading plastic protector sheets
Find a unique way to decorate the front cover, making this a unique book that you will want to save.
To create an organizer, take the tab pages and label each one with the following labels (make sure you put a few pages of paper in each section for notes):
o Calendar - create your own wedding countdown sheet or print one off from the Internet.
o Budget - keep your budget sheet here with estimated costs, actual costs, who's paying for each item
o Invitations & Thank You Cards - printing, guest list, postage, etc.
o Flowers - all flowers for both the reception and the ceremony, including bouquets
o Clothing - wedding dress, headpiece/veil, accessories, groom's attire, attendant's attire & accessories
o Wedding Ceremony - ceremony location, officiator, musicians, soloist, decorations, wedding programs, etc.
o Photography/Videographer - engagement photos, wedding photos, newspaper announcements, albums, videotaping, etc.
o Reception - location rental, table setup, plates & cutlery, decorations, entertainment, favors, labor, etc.
o Wedding Cake - wedding cake, groom's cake, cake topper, cake knife and server, etc.
o Food and Beverages - all food and beverages, serving tables, how it's to be served, etc.
o Honeymoon - transportation, accommodations, entertainment, clothing, etc.
o Miscellaneous - all the other stuff: transportation to and from wedding/reception, marriage license, blood tests, rehearsal dinner, gifts for attendants, any other expenses
Place a plastic protector sheet in each section as well. You will use these to hold contracts, receipts, price lists, pictures, clippings, brochures, and other related category information. Not only will you be able to quickly get your hands on a piece of needed correspondence or a receipt, you will also have a collection of mementos that can be used later for putting together a wedding scrapbook.
