At this point, it’s time to envision your wedding and come up with a budget – and a planning team. It would be best if you have a wedding consultant to help you keep track of different items. You’ll also need to choose the wedding date and venue but don’t forget check with the officiant and your important guests before finalizing. Now would also be a good time to plan the guest list and try to involve your fiancé and your parents so there won’t be any last minute guests to accommodate.

Now let’s think about the gown. Choose the dress that feels right for you and consider consulting with a professional couturier to recommend a design that will suit your body type. This is also the time to plan your reception - decide what kind of food and entertainment you want. A DJ or a band? A pianist perhaps? You’ll also need to think about the floral décor. Organize, research and book your wedding professionals. Interview the suppliers to ensure you get the the right people to work with for your special day. Lastly, register for gifts and do it with your partner so there would be an even say for the big day.

It’s best to book ceremony musicians at this time to secure their schedule. Order bridesmaid dresses in line with your theme and wedding gown. And start planning your honeymoon! Book flights and hotels in advance to get the deals. Lastly send save-the-date cards. This is a particularly good idea if you’re planning to get married in a provincial destination

1 month before 30 more days to go! You’ll need a marriage license, so better check with the local bureau in the town you’ll wed. Have your final gown fitting and call all the bridesmaids to make sure they have their gowns ready for the wedding.

Give the ceremony and reception manager a schedule of supplier delivery and setup times. Lastly, attend your bachelor/bachelorette party!

3 days before Have your wedding gown pressed or steamed! For the groom, go for final fitting and ask your best man to make sure all the groomsmen is ready with their outfits. Discuss any last-minute items to your suppliers.

1 day before Its a day before your wedding! Prepare your payments and give a person to contact to the wedding professionals in case of emergency. Rehearse your ceremony and have the setup of the ceremony site prepared. Give your license to your officiant. And lastly, have the rehearsal dinner.

Wedding Day Wedding bells are ringing! Give your parents and each other the presents you have. Give the best man the role of handling the wedding band and the officiant’s fee envelope so he’ll be the one to give it after the ceremony. Have your maid of honor in charge of the reception.
