Let's Get Organized, Organized! ( To the tune of, "Let's Get Physical)

One of the most awful feelings is knowing that you have a million and three things to do, but not having a single clue what they all are...

Thus, I give you THE WEDDING PLANNING BINDER OF GLORY:

Well, maybe yours is called something else, but you get the idea. In your wedding planning binder you will keep everything from your Inspiration Board, to your receipts from your vendors. Feel free to decorate and Bedazzle to your heart's content. (I think I'm going to rig mine to play some sort of angelic melody when it opens, like a singing birthday card.) To keep yourself more organized you will want to divide your binder into tabs. Possible tabs might include:
  • Budget
  • Invitations
  • Registry & Gifts
  • Bridal Party
  • Ceremony
  • Reception
  • Photography & Videography
  • Music
  • Attire
  • Flowers
  • Hair & Makeup
  • Transportation
  • Honeymoon
  • Contact List

As you go through the planning process, you will want to file everything in chronological order under the respective tabs for easy flip-ability. There will probably be a lot of paperwork, swatches, pictures, and receipts so you'll want to get one of those honkin' 3 inchers to hold it all.

Short post today. I'll be back soon with some info on budgeting! Yippee!
