Think Big and Act Wise

I was a self proclaimed "Do It Myselfer" when it came to planning and organizing my wedding. Even though I thoroughly enjoyed the process; I realized weddings take more than a dream. Weddings take organization, top notch negotiating skills, time (in abundance, multiplied by a gazillion, running over, and just a little bit more), financial management, not to mention a massive team of helpers who are just as committed as you are to your big day. I have linked a number of useful tools to help you in the process of pulling everything together and plan appropriately. It is important to avoid some of the pitfalls of planning a wedding which includes budgeting. Since 43% of couples say they spent more on their wedding than they had planned and 89% of family and friends helped to plan the wedding without a wedding planner; it maybe more advantageous to hire someone who knows the the industry and can garner discounts to keep prices down. A planner can make sure you are fully using the tools provided at this sight and get everything you can for your money. This site has a calendar, a wedding checklist, an expense breakdown, a budget form, and much more.
