If you are planning to get engaged over the holiday season, congratulations! However, that means you’ll be starting the new year with a myriad of details to iron out for the big wedding day. One of the best ways to tackle this sometimes overwhelming task and make it fun for the two of you is to start with a checklist and gradually work through it.

Below is a sampling of the things you’ll want to include on that list:

TIPS FOR YOUR WEDDING PLANNING CHECKLIST

1. SET THE DATE

Of course, the most important part of planning a wedding (after deciding whom to marry) is deciding when to have the wedding ceremony. This could depend on your work and school schedules as well as those of your close family and friends. It pays to be a little flexible until you’ve secured a place for the ceremony and the reception as your first choices may not be available on your first choice of dates.

2. SET THE TONE OF THE EVENT

The tone of your event is another important element. Do you want a formal or a casual wedding, a small or a large wedding, an outdoor or a church wedding? Personal or traditional? Bright colors or neutral? There’s a lot that goes into setting the tone for your event.

3. SET THE BUDGET

6. DECIDE ON COLORS for dresses and suits

3. CELEBRATE THE LITTLE WINS
