It is now time to begin Planning your Wedding. Use this Timeline as a Personal Checklist to help simplify your planning process and keep you organized. Before you even begin your master checklist of “to do’s” you must finalize your guest count. Without it, you cannot even begin setting a budget or choosing your ceremony and reception locations. You need to know your maximum amount of potential guests before you get started, so get going… make sure you get lists from every side of the family. This checklist is a great reference for getting started, no two weddings are the same, so use what you need and add what is not here so you don’t miss anything
