Whether you're getting married 2 years after the engagement or 6 months after the engagement, you will need an action plan. This checklist will guide you step-by-step as to what is to come next. I can not stress to you enough the importance of booking a planner early in the game; your planner will save you time, money and stress.
However, if you've already gotten a team of people, check off what you have already gotten accomplished and move from there.
Post Engagement Checklist:
- Create a Budget - This should be the amount provided by all contributors
- Determine Wedding Date
- Determine Wedding Party
- Book Ceremony/ Reception Venues
- Start Guest List
- Book a Planner - Planners have insight and relationships with vendors
- Book Officiant
- Book Photographer and Videographer
- Book Band and/or DJ's
- Book Florist
- Determine Bridal Attire (Bride, Bridal Party and Groomsmen)
- Reserve Hotel Rooms
- Wedding Registry
- Wedding Website
- Determine Stationery (Invitations, Menu Cards, Seating Cards, etc.)
- Honeymoon
- Arrange Transportation
- Rehearsal Dinner
- Book Wedding Cake Baker

I hope you find this checklist useful. Again, congratulations on your engagement!
