Published under Wedding Planning , Wedding Supplies

The day has come and you said, "Yes" to the question every woman dreams of hearing, "Will you marry me?". Now comes the daunting task of planning your wedding. There are so many details and things that need to be considered that brides-to-be often find themselves wondering where to even begin.

Some women choose to hire a wedding coordinator to handle all the details. Other women choose to do it on their own. One thing is for certain, you need a wedding planner to help you stay organized and reduce the stress. A wedding planner can either be purchased or you can choose to make your own. This article will serve as a guide to show you how to make a wedding planner.

The first thing you will want to do is to go and purchase a 3 ring binder, preferrably a rather thick binder, page protectors, and small pack of refill paper.

After you have purchased your supplies, divide your binder into sections. The sections you want to include are, attendants, attire, personal care (hair, nails, make-up), cake, ceremony, flowers, honeymoon, invitations, photographer, reception, and a miscellaneous section for things like wedding bands and wedding party gifts.

When your 3 ring binder has been divided up into sections, each section should then have a page protector placed in it. A page protector will be used to store items such as receipts, notes, business cards, pictures of items you want included in your wedding, ( gown, hairstyle, table decorations, ...), handouts and brochures.

It is important to also include blank sheets of paper in your wedding planner to be used to write down any ideas that come to mind, questions you want to ask, reminders, important dates and phone numbers.

Now that you have your wedding planner organized and ready to go, you are well on your way to relieving a lot of the stress that accompanies planning a wedding.
