Hee. WOW. So much planning!
I helped, a bit, with my sister's wedding, but I am SO glad a friend sent me here–I just got engaged, and we're going to just chill for awhile before we start any planning! Seeing what other commenters said about other sites: eep!

Cheers! Bookmarking this!

Wow, this is the best to-do list I've seen so far! I have to admit, yup I am a member of brides.com, knot.com, anything under the sun about planning my wedding.com, but evertime I look at their to-do lists I feel like the whole ordeal is getting way over our heads and way out of our pocketbooks. This is pretty much everything important without making the psycho fuss the other sites do, and seriously…the sedative masturbation step is the most clever thing ive seen yet! thanks!

Oh my lord. I'm such an over planner but after my now fiance and I got engaged I sat there at the computer going "uh…buh?" I was clueless as to where to even start. I went to the knot website and started looking and thought "No! I want no white dress! I want no roses or shit like that! I want no lace! I want no tuxes! WHAT DO I DO!" Then I found this, took a moment for a sigh of relief, called the hubby to be in, and planned out what we could in a matter of twenty minutes. Thank GOD for you and this checklist!

This list is great! Thank you!
I just got engaged and when I went to look at the site, I kind of panicked since I haven't been planning this since I was a fetus.
This makes it easier to focus and streamline everything!

Here's an idea…Instead of doing the rehearsal dinner on the day before, do it two days before. That way, the day before the wedding can be completely stress-free and you can just chill if you want to.

the reason for deciding soooo earlie on your hair is partly to match it to the rest of your outfit – but mainly to be able to fix any oopsies along the way.

i plan to have my hair highlighted but if i am not careful my hair turns a carrot color and acutally clashes with my skin tone – not a look i would want for my wedding!!!!!

OMG thank you so much for this. Any other checklists from frilly sites like the Knot scare me senseless to look at. They go on forever and I've never understood the point of terrifying the bride with ever single minor detail just when she's considering plannign a wedding. This list is perfect.
