Wedding Day Check List 101

MELISSA BARRIE

Planning a wedding is no easy task. With so many details to remember and tasks to take care of, it’s easy to feel overwhelmed. That’s why having a wedding day checklist is essential for couples who are getting married.

A wedding day checklist outlines all the tasks that need to be done before, during and after the wedding day, so that nothing important is overlooked or forgotten. It also serves as a helpful guide for couples who are planning their own weddings, helping them stay organized and on track with their plans. With a comprehensive wedding day checklist in hand, couples can ensure that their special day goes off without any hiccups or surprises!

Having a wedding checklist is a great way to make sure that you don’t forget anything. It can be overwhelming to plan a wedding, so having some sort of checklist is helpful.

How Do I Make a Wedding Checklist?

You can use a checklist, spreadsheet or app to keep track of the tasks you need to complete. You could also use a task management tool like Trello or Asana if you’re more comfortable with that kind of thing.

If you’re having trouble staying organized and on top of your wedding planning, consider hiring a professional wedding planner who will take care of everything for you!

What Should I Prepare for a Wedding Checklist?

• What do you want to do for your wedding?
• Are there any restrictions or limitations on the venue?
• Make a list of what needs to be done
• Getting help if needed (who to ask for and what they will do)

Here Are Some Things That You Can Include in Your Own Wedding Day Checklist:

• Venue and transportation or driving instructions
  The first thing you need to decide on is where to celebrate your wedding! Whether it is a destination wedding, or a nearby events place, make sure that you communicate transportation instructions with your guests early so they can plan ahead.
• Wedding Invitations
  Whether you are going to have them printed or you are sending invitations via email or messaging apps, make sure that you send them way ahead of time, especially for those you wish to include in the bridal entourage.
  
  Have conversations with your bridesmaids and groomsmen and have them onboard for the wedding preparations.
• Flowers
  Flowers are a big part of the wedding experience, but they can also be expensive. If you’re looking to save money and have a hand in creating your own centerpieces, there are plenty of options. Local florists often have deals on bulk purchases or will let you pre-order flowers with a discount. You can also buy flowers online and have them shipped directly to your venue.
  If fresh floral arrangements are too expensive or unavailable, opt for faux florals and greeneries! This way, you can have affordable floral arrangements without the wilting and the constant watering, anytime of the year, wherever you may be! Get these faux florals along with other wholesale event supplies from trustworthy vendors that offer good deals and discounts for bulk orders.
• Food
  Wedding catering is often the next most expensive aspect next to the wedding venue. Decide early on your catering provider, and whether you are serving food buffet-style, plated in several courses, or served in table sets.
• Linens
  Linens are a major part of your wedding, and you’ll want to make sure that they’re just right. You can rent linens for any aspect of your event, from tablecloths and dinner napkins to chair covers.
  
• Designer Weddings will provide you with a free consultation to pick out your linens and then follow up with an estimate so that you know exactly how much everything will cost before placing an order. You can also change your order as often as you like until your big day.
• Arrangements for the Band or DJ
  Make sure the band or DJ is on the list. Check that they have the right equipment, including microphones and speakers. Also, check that they know what songs to play during different parts of your wedding: when you’re getting ready, when you walk down the aisle, etc.
• Event lighting and styling
  Candles are a great way to create a romantic atmosphere, especially if you want to do something special for your wedding day. Small tea lights can be used to create a focal point for the area where they’re placed and give off beautiful light. LED fairy lights can make great accents in photos!
  
  Make sure that the event lighting is flattering on everyone, so if you have any guests who look like they need some help with their appearance or just want some extra glow, candles are an easy way to do it!
• Balloons and other Decors
  Balloons are a great way to add fun and color to your wedding day. They can be used as decorations, gifts, or even favors for guests. However, if you’re going to use balloons at your wedding it is important that someone is in charge of them. Balloons are dangerous if they are not handled properly and if they get away from their designated handler they can cause serious damage.
  
  Also make sure to check if all your wedding decors are in place. From curtain drapes to table centerpieces, you want nothing to be out of place on your wedding day.
