Do not underestimate the importance of keeping a wedding journal. Every meeting, idea, payment, phone call, estimate and email should be noted in this journal. Right down who you talked with, what was discussed and the date you discussed it on. In addition to the wedding journal you can also make notes and list items on the iPhone wedding app. No matter where you are when inspiration strikes you no longer have to put off cataloging it since you always have your phone at hand. Finding the right wedding venue is not something that should be left to the last minute. The venue you choose should match your personality or at least be someplace that you can attach her own personal stamp to. It is also important to consider the time of year that you want to have your wedding, some wedding venues such as churches and hotels are booked solid doing certain times of the year. If you’re holding your wedding in a hotel, it would not be a good idea to have it during the time of year when the hotel is filled with seminar goers or college events. Another item that you cannot put off is finding a live wedding band or wedding DJ. The best ones are generally well sought after and if you don’t get in right away, you could miss out. No one wants to settle for second best on their wedding day. Be sure to include in your budget money to buy guests for the people that assist you while you are planning your wedding. The groomsmen, the bridesmaids and others who have given of their time or money to make sure that your wedding is fabulous deserve to be shown appreciation. Book your wedding photographer and wedding videographer early on in the wedding planning process. While it may be tempting to let your uncle or brother or cousin take a crack at wedding photography, why risk them missing the mark. A professional wedding photographer or videographers can see quality photographs and have the equipment to create memorable wedding videos.
