I’ve been planning my wedding for the past year or so and I’ve found that it all comes so easy to me. I love doing the research and finding new ideas and creating it all and I just think it’s so much fun. Any ideas on how to get started?
Wedding planning is no mean feat and unless you are experienced at organizing this size of event, then having as many tools at your disposal is a must. A wedding planning checklist will help you to organize your time as well as help you to see what needs doing and when you need to be doing it!
In essence a wedding planning checklist is a time ordered list of everything that is required for a wedding to be successful. They are usually freely available from bridal magazines, wedding directories, wedding planning books and online from wedding websites. If possible look for checklists that come with a host of other goodies such as a budget planner and wedding planning tips and advice.
One thing that you need to be aware of is that most wedding planning checklists will follow the same format, that is of an 18 month planning period and everything required for a traditional white wedding. So for many brides there is a certain amount of editing that will need to be done in order to make the checklist fit with their timeframe and wedding plans.
Editing a checklist is not difficult, and in many respects it is a better option to take a free checklist and use it to help you design you own checklist which is tailored to your wedding. Having a copy on your computer is also a good idea so you can edit later if needed and print out extra copies. Why extra copies? Well it can be helpful to you if those people who will also be involved in the wedding planning, such as the groom, maid of honor and your mom, have a copy for their own reference.
Your wedding planning checklist should be kept with your wedding planning notes and it is always handy to have a copy with you whenever you are out and about. Make sure you use it to its full effect though, be sure to look at it each day and check off each task as it is completed. The checklist can also be helpful in making mini checklists which you will probably find you need the closer you get to the wedding day.
A wedding planning checklist is one of the most essential planning tool you will need and it is the only one that will help you to make sure you stay on track and don’t omit anything vital to your big day!

I live in nj close to ny and I really want to try working in wedding planning. I’d love to find a job as an assistant or intern for an event planning firm to get my foot in the door but I have had a hard time finding openings or information. Any ideas, tips, suggestions are welcome. Thank You !!!!
I currently have a degree in Graphic Design, but I’ve been considering starting a Wedding planning buisiness or becoming an Interior Designer. I plan to go back to school either way, but I don’t know anyone in these fields. So I’m wondering how hard it is to get into these fields and be succesfull. I have a little experience doing both and think I’d really enjoy either one.
Thanks in advance!
I hadn’t really thought of commercial or domestic interior design. They would probably both be pretty rewarding. I suppose commercial would be a little better with larger budgets and customers probably have a clearer idea of what they want.
