In the following articles we will continue this conversation where I break down tasks that need to be accomplished as you plan ahead of your most important day:

a. 5-9 months prior

b. 1-2 months prior

c. Final weeks and days

Due to the many differences between weddings, you may find some of the reminders listed don’t really apply to you. Or, perhaps a few particular details that are part of your special plans are excluded from this list. Modify the checklist as you go along until you’re satisfied it’s tailored to your needs.
