An odd statement but it seems true. Brides who had a notebook and/or a wedding planner in hand when booking my chapel were calmer than those who didn’t have one. It appears that when a couple is stretching the dollar to make their dream come true, they are far more detail oriented due to all the costs involved as they have some sort of written budget for their wedding.
A wedding chapel, church or wedding facility will have a wedding coordinator with a set system for you to follow. However, a home wedding is typically on you. When you know what’s supposed to come next and it doesn’t happen, it’s a lot easier to make the decision to skip it or gracefully slide it in somewhere else in the celebration. Your guests won’t notice the mistake as much as you do when you’re organized.
The easiest way to plan your wedding is through an outline. It should start from the engagement as far as locations, colors, wedding party involved through getting on the plane for your honeymoon. Write down all the individual items or topics associated with your wedding such as: wedding flowers, dress, tuxedo, candles, wedding minister, DJ, and parking. Then, take your outline and insert each topic into the outline where you believe it belongs for a quick overview of what needs to be purchased, organized and assigned to someone in your wedding party to handle for you.
This technique should help. However, if you don’t have the free hours to put the entire plan together from engagement to honeymoon, I've located a couple who have saved thousands of dollars on their own ceremony who have written everything down to help you with your wedding plan.
