This was super helpful! Thank you!!!

Make a list of what you have for the ceremony, reception, planner binder/folder with all the contracts and vendors information. Your outfits, accessories and beauty is also important to know you have a checklist for everything packed. The vows, speech and seating arrangement was put out on the table when we arrived to know what the ceremony paper work was and then to take the speech for reception.

Welcome bags are a nice way to allow your guests to appreciate snacks, water bottles and information package to know the location and time of the wedding and reception.

So exciting!! I definitely understand that. I hate getting excited without knowing whether or not it was happening but now we are over the moon

I am 2 weeks out and so excited!! I mean the excitement was on pause for a few months until last month so whatever we are supposed to feel in 6 months we are feeling in a month. It’s like feelings are on steroids!!

When I'm planning something I like to walk mentally through the day and think of everything I'll touch/use/interact with.


For example if I'm packing for a night away I'll think about what I do in the morning (take vitamins, brush hair, teeth, put on deodorant) and add any supplies and products to my list, then I move on to the next step in my imaginary day. I find it helps me to realize I've forgotten socks or dental floss, but it also works for remembering what I need to do that day.
For wedding stuff it can be a little different. If you're doing gifts for people you can add it to your personal timeline, or if you're worried you'll forget something special just add it to the timeline of when you're using it/putting it on (I've heard a few brides forgot their garters for example).

I would say if you two are planning any beauty treatments (haircuts, facials, skin cleanses etc) to do it no later than the one week out mark.
