Lists are the best way to avoid mistakes

It is very important when you set out to start planning your wedding that you comprise a full list of things you need to purchase, tasks you must complete and reservations you must make to ensure that you do not miss anything. Nothing is worse than remembering that you forgo to book the mariachi band for the reception or that you forgot to find that extra special pair of honeymoon panties to surprise your new groom.

If you have a wedding planner, usually she has a list that she can print off for you but if you are going at the planning all on your own. Check with online sites that provide wedding planning and you might be surprised at what is missing from your list. Often you cover the basics but forget the small nuances such as candies at the tables or even favors. Weddings are a joyous occasion but for the planner, it can be a virtual nightmare up until the last guest leaves the reception. One forgotten item and to you, the whole night could be compromised, even if the bridge and groom never notice.

If you happen to be the bride (or groom for that case) you surely do not want to disappoint your significant other by leaving out something simple. When you have a list, never check anything off until you have the item in your possession or you have a confirmation of reservation. This will help to avoid confusion. Also, if you have others helping you: work off the same list at all times to ensure you do not cross-communicate and either duplicate items or forget them altogether.
