A Wedding to Remember: The Perfect Special Day

You’ve waited months or even years for this special day and it’s almost here. The place settings have been arranged, the save-the-dates and invitations have been sent out and the caterer and wedding planner are all on hand. And since the big day is just around the corner, you may think your job is done.  But think again! Now that you’re in the homestretch you need to ensure that nothing is forgotten. Keep reading to make sure your bridal checklist is in tip-top shape.

Checklist 1: Two Weeks to Go

You’ve gotten most of the major worries out of the way but there are still some considerations:

  • Are my goody bags or eco-friendly tote bags stocked with party favors like candy, keychains, magnets and other mementos?
  • Have I printed out an itinerary on letterhead for the big day?
  • Have I sent a copy of the invitation or save-the-date to the local paper so they can make an announcement?
  • Have I had one final check-in with the photographer, band and caterer?
  • Has my groom had his hair appointment?
  • Have I had one last gown fitting?

Checklist 2: The 24-Hour Countdown

You’re almost there, but it’s not time to relax just yet! After months and months of preparation you may feel that you’ve done everything that needs to be done. But have you made sure the following essentials are in order?

  • Have I picked up my gown and veil?
  • Has the groom secured his tux?
  • Have I indulged in a pedi-mani?
  • Are my party favors and other important items at the reception hall?

Checklist 3: The Big Day

If you think you’re going to relax all day, forget about it. You’ve been planning for this day a long time, but there are still some last minute must-do’s you’ll have to squeeze in.

  • Do I have comfortable shoes to put on after the ceremony?
  • Does my Maid of Honor have my groom’s wedding band? Does the Best Man have the bride’s wedding ring?
  • Has my right hand man or woman double checked that everything’s in order?

Phew. Your special day is sure to go more smoothly with this easy checklist. Wishing you a life full of love and happiness!
