Bridal Checklist

Inspirational Tools, Ideas and Thoughts for a Bridal Checklist Well, I’m glad that you arrived at my Bridal Checklist page, because now I know that you understand why it is so important to have a wedding guide and the significance of being organized. Before you even begin making any decisions, I recommend getting a notebook and keep it in a convenient location; perhaps in your pocketbook. This way you can keep all of your notes, business cards, and contacts together in one place. Every time you get an idea, see something on the Internet or TV, hear someone talking about an idea that you would like to incorporate into your wedding plans, write it down. If you hear of any mishap that another bride experienced, log it into your notebook and take the necessary action to ensure that the same error doesn’t happen during your wedding. Purchase a box, wrap it in pretty paper and every time you read an article or see a picture in a magazine or newspaper, clip it out and put it into your “wedding box.” This will keep all of your wedding “stuff” organized and in one place.  Because so many items are easily forgotten, I’ve included everything that I can think of in my wedding planning checklist and have broken it down into separate categories and pages. As soon as you become engaged: Tell your family and friends about your engagement. Announce your engagement in the newspaper if you so desire. Decide if you will have an engagement party; if so, what type of party and all the particulars. Talk to your parents, fiancée and his parents and determine who will be paying for and researching the different wedding items. Items to consider for your wedding planning guide: Ceremony officiant, cantor, organist, bridal runner, ring pillow, vows Bridal Accessories dress, veil, headpiece, shoes, undergarments, garter, handkerchief, gloves, pocketbook, jewelry Grooms Accessories Transportationlimousines, cars, bus, horse and buggy Flowers (silk, fresh) brides, bridesmaids and flower girl bouquets, corsages for special women, boutonnières, house, ceremony, reception Living Accommodations furniture, housewares, new address announcements Gifts bridesmaids, groomsmen, flower girl, ring bearer, parents brides and grooms gifts to each other Responsibilities person(s) responsible for getting the wedding gifts to the couple’s apartment or to the bank, wedding gown to the cleaners, tuxedo return Music or DJ Etiquette Caterer Invitations Hair, nails, make-up Photographer Videographer Rings Honeymoon Bridal Shows Speeches and Toasts Favors Decorations Rehearsal Dinner Guest AccommodationsHotel Room for wedding nightWedding Cake Marriage license Furniture, kit Guest book Shower (Will this be a surprise for the bride?)
