One page, 60 tasks, grouped by how far out you are: from "set your total budget" 12+ months before to sending thank-you notes after the wedding. Print it, stick it on the fridge and tick as you go.
No email sign-up, nothing to buy. US Letter size; it also prints fine on A4 with "fit to page".
What's on it
- 12+ months: budget, guest estimate, date, venue
- 10 to 8 months: photographer, caterer, officiant, music, florist, save-the-dates
- 6 to 2 months: attire, rentals, invitations, cake, menu, vows
- 1 month to the day: license, RSVPs, seating, final headcount, payments
- After: returns, reviews, thank-you notes
