Planning a wedding is mostly about doing things in the right order. This checklist groups the usual tasks by timeframe: budget, guest list and venue first; photographer, caterer and music next; then invitations, the license, final fittings and the day-of timeline.

Every task has a clickable checkbox, and each stage ends with a blank line for your own items. Use it on screen and save your progress, or print it for your planning binder.

Timelines vary by location and season — popular venues and vendors may need booking earlier than shown.
