Continuing with our weekly weddng tips, I had done a quick little live video on our Facebook page a few days ago on how important it is to have a wedding checklist. I shared with all of you the checklist that I utilize with my couples and clients on Aisle Planner. There is a section on Getting Started and bullet points on where to begin with the planning process... Then it is either timed out according to months and itemized lists or it can accomodated to your specific needs if we are working on a shorter timeline.The Bride and Groom do have their own checklists, Yes Grooms you have a checklist. The checklist should consist of Venue searching, what they offer and do not offer. If you need a cater, bartender, bar items etc... Then we have individual vendors as well, Such as Photography, Cinematography, D.J., Band, Special Effect Lighting, Bakery, Rentals, Florals and so forth...A checklist is so very important for many reasons but to me the most important reason is to keep you on track and on time. So If you do not have a checklist just yet, here is a complimentary checklist attached below for you to use to get started.Happy PlanningChristinaHere is the link to the Live video just incase you missed it :
