Keeping it all together

Having touble remembering what you've done and what needs to be done when planning your wedding? There are so many things! It's a great idea to create a checklist to help you remember what you need to complete before the big event. I also really recommend keeping everything in a wedding binder and keeping a date book to schedule all your meetings and appointments.
Staying organized means eliminating stress and the risk of mistake.

- If you need help assembling a checklist, visit American Bridal and use their abundance of checklists that they have made available to you.
- TheKnot.com is another great resource for you. Sign up and recieve helpful tips, reminders, use their checklists, build a personal wedding site, and take advantage of the other helpful tools they provide.
- Another site i really like is Wedding Wire. Wedding Wire is another helpful wedding planning system but they even give you tools to help arrange reception seating. It's really cool.

What tools are you using to stay organized?

Finding the perfect favor

When it comes to choosing a wedding favor for your guests, I think it's important to show you've been thoughtful. There are so many people to thank for their role in your special day; parents, bridesmaids, groomsman, guests, out of town guests... phew! Certainly it's not necessary to be throwing gifts at everyone, but it's nice to take the time to find or make something special for those people who really deserve it.

I get bored with the same old things. Great gifts are ones that are thoughtful or even hand made. But for those who need a little help, there are some great sites with fun ideas for gifts and are definitely worth checking out.
