About a Wedding Planning Calendar

Brides often need a wedding planner calendar to help guide them through planning their wedding effortlessly. You can find wedding planning calendars either online, through interactive websites, such as The Knot or Wedalert, or you can purchase a wedding planner binder, such as Martha Stewart's "Keepsake Wedding Planner." Both types will provide you with the checklists and timelines you need to plan your wedding.

  1. Timeline

    • The time line lists the activities that must be done each month, in order of their priority, starting the very first month with announcing your engagement and researching reception sites.

    Budget

    • It contains a budget worksheet where you can write down your estimated costs of vendors for your initial budget, then adjust it after receiving quotes.

    Expense Breakdown

    • Most planners also include an article on whose family traditionally pays for which vendors and venues. The bride and her family pay for the reception, the bridesmaid's bouquets, the ceremony musicians and the reception disc jockey and all of the bride's attire. The groom and his family contribute towards the rings, the honeymoon, the rest of the flowers and the rehearsal dinner.

    Checklist

    • It also provides you with a checklist where you can mark items off as you buy them or complete them. Depending on the planner, these checklists may be general or specialized by theme such as attire or reception.

    Music

    • Nowadays, many planners also include a music worksheet so you can list some of your ideas for your ceremony music and reception songs. The online planning sites often have a directory of songs that you can browse through to help you make your selections.
