The Wedding Planner Checklist: A Portable Guide to Organizing Your Dream Wedding

The planner for the rest of us.Who actually wants to sift through those giant 8x11 binders? Not me.I plan on having a small simple wedding with a reception, but I don't need 500 pages to describe what flowers are in season when (that is what the internet is for). Instead, this planner gives room for all the basics--contact information for all the vendors, a place to jot down website info and registry passwords, and it also has reminders that cover all the basic stuff I will need to remember. Also room for budgeting "budgeted cost" and "actual cost" columns included. Things like "menu" are a blank page that gives you ample space to write down what you want instead of crowding it with checklist options. Includes honeymoon planner and 8 blank pages for notes at the end. Perfect. The only things NOT included in this planner is space for a guest list and a calendar. I plan on purchasing a pocket size contacts/calendar and carrying with this book in my purse for the entire wedding planning session. This 72 page planner is portable and perfect to jot down everything I will need. Sections included (in order of table of contents:)~important names and numbers~timeline~budgeting~parties (engagement party, rehearsal dinner, post wedding brunch, bridal shower/bachelorette)~gift registry~Attire, hair, and make up~Accommodations, Transportation & activities~Stationery~Flowers~Music~Photography~The Ceremony~The Reception~Catering~Honeymoon Planner~Post wedding checklist~Social Media~Resources~Notes

So I didn't want one of those law book type of a Wedding Planners but this is smaller than it appears. It is purse size but actually well organized. I love it! Surprisingly as I was about to send it back. If you want something fancier or more substantial this is not that. It is much bigger than those 1970 's purse calendars but probably not for the younger set. It's cute , concise and gets the job done. I've already gotten a lot done.

I bought this for a friend after researching lots of wedding planners. Besides the excellent planning aspect, she said that it has wonderful questions at the beginning to help them capture their memories of this time and record special moments in their relationship, sort of like a baby book has, but for people getting married. She said that they had fun recording those memories that might have been forgotten otherwise.

Sadly, I called off the wedding but the planner was very helpful.

I'm planning an in-port cruise wedding with Carnival. I needed something to keep me organized, while this book had a lot of things that don't apply to me, there are still a lot of details it does cover. It gives you a quick check list- what to do and how many months in advance, pages for contacts for various vendors, passwords and links to your social media pages, budgets for various things- wedding dress, groom's attire, photography, etc., and notes pages... it's very helpful, a great place to brain dump all your little wedding details. 5 stars if I were planning a whole wedding, 4 stars if you're like me planning a cruise wedding where a lot of things won't really apply (it isn't quite what I need) but don't let that take away from it, it's a really good organizer...

I bought one for myself and one for her. I like how detailed it is

This planner is a cute idea! BUT I definitely didn’t use it as much as I thought I would. :( I think I liked the idea of using it more than actually using it LOL. I just always find myself jotting things down in the notes on my phone.

This is more like an oversized pocket planner but I found it to be super helpful in guiding me with wedding planning. A nice inexpensive alternative to some of the other planners that were crazy in pricing.
