Make Sure You Think About

There are many things that can go forgotten when planning a wedding. Whenever I know I have something important to do I always make a checklist. I know in a previous post I gave you guys a link to a bunch of helpful wedding checklists. But the list I am going to give you today is a little bit different. The wedding checklist on the site that I gave you was more detailed and instructional about things you should do in certain time frames before you wedding. This list is just something that I have compiled to help me remember little things that I don’t want to forget. Here’s what I have so far:

I am sure that I will come up with things to add to this list since I am still in my planning process. But this has helped me to think about the things that I need to start planning for. If you have any suggestions of things that I left off please let us all know that way we don’t forget them either!
