How to plan a wedding (Canada)?
I am trying to plan my wedding and I have no idea where to start. I'm looking for a book or website that will tell me everything. Wedding planning for dummies would work except that I am planning an outdoorsy, simple wedding. Lots of guests, I would like to follow some traditions but not all of them. Any ideas?
I'm planning my wedding too, here's a rough to-do list!
SOON:-
- Choose best man & bridesmaids
- Set a date
- Pick and book a venue (ceremony/reception)
- Find a celebrant/religious figure to marry you both
- Write out a guest list
SOONISH:-
- Set up a wedding gift list
- Write vows
- Design and send invitations
- Organise catering and alcohol
- Shop for wedding dress, bridesmaids dresses and suits
- Design your flowers
- Find a photographer
- Organise the wedding cake
- Buy your wedding rings
LATER:-
- Arrange music
- Book honeymoon
- Plan hen night and stag do
- Transport to wedding
- Favours
- Plan decorations for venue
That's the major areas covered! Buy a brides magazine to flick through, they usually have extravagant plans month by month, which will be helpful even if you're planning a simple wedding.
Online bride sites usually have organisers too where you can keep track of everything.
