wedding planning checklist 12-18 MONTHS BEFORE WEDDING

You’re engaged! Congratulations!

26

The Basics • Choose a date - it can be helpful to pick three possible dates or a time of year so you can be flexible with your venue’s availability. • Discuss budget with all parties that are contributing. • Visit ceremony and reception venues and book your dream locations as soon as possible.


wedding planning checklist 12-18 MONTHS BEFORE WEDDING The Squad • Start compiling your guest list. • Choose your wedding party. • Hire a wedding planner. • Research and start to book your wedding pros (photographer, caterer, florist, officiant, bakery, entertainment, videographer, etc). The Vibe • Start to think about your wedding style and look for inspiration (creating a Pinterest page or following wedding Instagram accounts can be super helpful). • Browse stationery designs, wedding dress styles, color schemes - get those creative juices flowing! The Fine Print • Consider getting your engagement ring insured. • Start creating a wedding website. • Stay organized! Create a wedding binder or Google doc folder to keep track of files and contracts. 27


wedding planning checklist 6-9 MONTHS BEFORE WEDDING Make the Cut • Refine your guest list. • Book all vendors and start working on details with them (schedule meetings, calls, tastings, walk throughs, etc).

28

Save the Date • Mail your Save-the-Dates. • Decide on and order your invitation suite (consider including things like itinerary cards, ceremony programs, thank you cards, etc).


wedding planning checklist 6-9 MONTHS BEFORE WEDDING Get the Look • Say YES to the dress! Shop for and buy your wedding dress. • Shop for and order bridesmaid dresses. Cover the Details • Research and book hotel room blocks for out of town guests. • Purchase wedding bands. • Create a gift registry and link this to your wedding website • Reserve rentals (chairs, linens, lighting, decor, place settings, etc. • Book rehearsal time at the ceremony location and dinner venue. • Start planning the honeymoon (if you need passports, make sure you plan accordingly). 29


wedding planning checklist 3-5 MONTHS BEFORE WEDDING Planning and Purchasing • Send wedding invitations (6-8 weeks prior to wedding date). • Schedule dress fittings and purchase or gather accessories and undergarments. • Purchase anything rental company and vendors are not providing (toasting flutes, guest book, flower girl and ring bearer accessories, gifts, guest favors, etc).

30


wedding planning checklist 3-5 MONTHS BEFORE WEDDING Logistics • Book wedding weekend and honeymoon travel and lodging. • Plan for showers, bachelorette and bachelor parties.

QUESTIONS TO ASK WHEN SELECTING YOUR PHOTOGRAPHER ο

What is your favorite shooting style?

ο

May we see your portfolio or albums of your work?

ο

Were all the photos in these albums taken by the same photographer?

ο

How many weddings have you done that are similar in size and style to our wedding?

ο

Are you the person that we will be working with personally on our day? If not, can we meet the person who will be? Do you bring an assistant or another photographer with you on the wedding day?

ο

Can we give you a shot list to work from? (This ensures you will be able to get the shots that are important to you.)

ο

How many weddings do you typically shoot in a year?

ο

How many other events will you be capturing that weekend? (This is so you are aware if you are the only event or not. Although, most photographers have no problem shooting multiple events in a weekend.)

ο

What kind of equipment will you bring? Do you have backup equipment available? (Asking this question will also give you a good idea of how much space they will need. This can be an important piece of information to know when they will be shooting the ceremony.)

ο

Does this person’s style and personality reflect my own? Will I enjoy spending the day with them?

tipping guide You’ve made your budget, booked all of your vendors and services for the big day, and are totally winning at wedding planning! However, there might be something you forgot! You will need to budget for tipping those making your big day perfect. We’ve put together a guide to help you! catering + bar service: If your contract does not have gratuity built in, you should expect to tip 15-20% of the total bill. Likewise, with your bar service, you should plan to tip 10% of the total bill. photography + videography: You should tip the main photographer/videographer $50-$200 for the evening. If there are additional shooters, you should plan for an additional $50-$100 each. music: Your DJ can keep your reception running smoothly and your guests entertained. A 10-15% tip is standard. Band members should be tipped $30-$50 each. floral + decor: Florists create handcrafted designs for your wedding. An appropriate tip is 10-15% of the total cost. If florals and rentals are being delivered, you should plan to tip the delivery staff $20-$30. 252


tipping guide baker: That gorgeous cake was no simple task! Especially delivering and setting it up. Make sure to tip your baker $20-$30 for their delivery and set up services. hair + make-up: Let’s face it, professional hair and make-up artists will make you and your wedding party look absolutely flawless! Their hard work should be recognized with a 15-20% tip. transportation: From your get-away car to a party bus for your wedding party to shuttling for your guests, transportation is going to play an important part in your wedding. Make sure to compensate your drivers an additional 15-20%. event staff: There are many people who help make your wedding day run smoothly. Make sure to recognize their work with an appropriate gratuity. For a venue’s on-site coordinator, tip $150. Coat and Restroom attendants should receive $0.50-$1.00 per guest. Valet attendants should receive $1.00-$1.50 per car. Other ways to show appreciation: Religious officiants cannot accept tips, so consider a donation to their church as a sign of appreciation. You can also thank your vendors by sending them a thank you note, or better, giving them a positive review on their Facebook pages or on their PWG vendor listing! 253

HOW TO PREPARE FOR YOUR HONEYMOON

286

ο

Get travel insurance: If anything happens, you’ll be prepared and won’t lose any deposits.

ο

Make sure you have all the necessary travel documentation. This can include a passport, driver’s license and birth certificate. Be sure to check with your travel agent or airline for the exact documentation needed.

ο

Be sure to read up on current travel rules. This can be on of the most frustrating pieces of traveling. Knowing ahead of time what you will be dealing with can save a few headaches.

ο

Reconfirm you itinerary with the airline and make sure you have transportation to the airport.

ο

Be early: Having to rush around and feel stressed is not how you want to start your honeymoon. Give yourself plenty of time. You will enjoy this adventure together even more when you don’t feel rushed.

ο

This is not the time to go for the cheap hotel. Splurging on some luxuries is a must on your honeymoon!

PRE-WEDDING CELEBRATIONS ENGAGEMENT PARTY ο ο ο ο ο

Helps you celebrate and announce to family and friends that you are engaged. Usually a smaller scale party. Can be a chance to get everyone together that will have a lot of involvement in your wedding. Usually held within the first few months of your engagement, as far from the actual wedding date as possible. Typically hosted by the bride’s parents or it can be thrown by the couple themselves.

BRIDAL SHOWER ο Held 2-3 months prior to the wedding, it can be used to “shower” the bride or couple with gifts to set up their home. ο Couples showers are becoming increasingly popular. ο The shower is typically hosted by the maid of honor or a close group of friends.

BACHELOR/BACHELORETTE PARTIES ο These parties can have a bad reputation, so discuss expectations with your partner. ο Combined bachlor/bachelorette parties are becoming increasingly popular. ο Make sure to schedule it 2-3 weeks prior to the wedding. ο Usually hosted by the best man/maid of honor and close friends/wedding party. REHEARSAL DINNER ο Make sure to include your officiant, wedding party members, close family and those who will be participating in the wedding (soloists or readers). ο It is a nice gesture to include out-oftown guests as a thank you for traveling. ο A perfect opportunity to present your wedding party with gifts of appreciation. ο This is hosted by groom’s parents.

IMPORTANT TIPS WHEN SELECTING YOUR TRANSPORTATION SERVICES ο

Think about the style of the exit you want to have. Is it a more formal affair? Then a limousine filled with your entire wedding party is the way to go!

ο

How many people do you need to transport? When your wedding party is very large, you may need more than one vehicle. You might also consider a luxury bus.

ο

Transportation companies will need you to book their services for at least two hours. So put this time to good use. This is a great opportunity to go take some fun pictures with your wedding party off-site.

ο

Some couples choose to arrange transportation for all guests throughout the day. If you are having a lot of out-of-town guests that aren’t familiar with the area, this is a service to consider. Sometimes these shuttles can be organized through the hotel where you have a large room block. Otherwise this is something your planner can help with.

ο

Some ideas for guests: Make sure you enclose directions from the ceremony to the reception. This can be a huge help to out-of-town guests. You could also include information for shuttle services and rental companies if you expect many out-of-towners.

ο

When booking valet services for your reception, most require a minimum car amount. Be sure to check on this before you book. Most services will have one valet for every 20-25 cars. 313
