| Depending on your personal preferences and the preferences of your husband or wif to-be, a wedding can take anywhere from 6 weeks to 2 years to plan. If one step in the planning process is missed, the whole wedding could be ruined. To prevent this from happening, we have created a wedding checklist in order to ensure everything goes according to plan on your big day. 7-12 Months Prior - Announce Engagement and have your engagement party - Decide on the wedding style and create a guest list - Choose who you both want in the wedding party - Set the date and time of the wedding - Book your wedding officiant - Choose your wedding song - Decide on "extras" (cake, flowers, dj, photographers etc) - Purchase your wedding dress and bridal accessories - Purchase bridesmaids dresses and accessories (maid of honor as well) - Start planning your honeymoon - Buy (or make) your wedding favors - Purchase your wedding invitations - Plan your rehearsal ceremony and dinner 2-6 Months Prior - Arrange accommodations for out-of-town guests - Finalize the dinner menu - Book your limo (or other form of transportation) - Book the rehearsal dinner site - Book your honeymoon - Purchase your wedding rings - Purchase your gifts for the wedding party - Rent the tuxedos for groom and groomsmen (including bestman) - Schedule a dress fitting (bride) - Book hair and makeup appointment (bride) - Have your bridal shower - Send out the invitations to your guests - Plan the wedding program 1 Month Prior - Get your marriage license (and blood tests if needed) - Final dress fitting (bride) - Arrange seating for your guests - Have your stag and doe party 1-2 Weeks Prior - Pick up the wedding dress - Have your bachelor and bachelorette parties The Day Before - Give the wedding party their gifts - Pick up the tuxedo(s) - Decorate the wedding site - Have your rehearsal dinner and greet out-of-town guests Follow these steps in the first step towards a lifetime of marital bliss!
