If you are looking to plan the perfect wedding, then here's how to save yourself a lot of time, headache and hassle. There are three main things you need to keep in mind if you want to pull this feat off without a hitch: organization, delegation and communication. In order to have a wedding happen with as little stress as you can, you will want to organize and plan everything from the beginning.

Organization requires that you first look at your total budget and research what you absolutely must have in order to have a nice affair: deejay, church, reception venue, caterers, cake, dress, bridesmaids dress and the like. You should have a total amount of money in mind to spend, and then break it down so that you can see what takes the maximum amount of money to produce and what you can do for less money, where you can cut corners and where you absolutely can not get the price down and maintain the level of quality.

After you organize everything, it's best to get a book to keep everything in. You can get a wedding planner book either from your local bookstore in the wedding section or by making one yourself. When it comes to organization, you will need to keep everything in one book only. You do not want to spread things out across many books because some detail is going to be overlooked and some to do list will be missed. So, in order to remain as organized as possible, you'll want to work from one book. From this book you can delegate responsibilities to your bridesmaids and family members who are helping you bring this to completion. Keep master checkslists of things that need to be done with handouts for delegation. In that way, you can keep track of what's done, what needs to be done and who is doing it.

Communication among all parties concerned is essential. People left in the dark about what they should be doing, generally do nothing. In order to keep track of what's being finished, what's in process and what has not started yet, you need to look through your master sheets, and make calls and have meetings to keep everyone going on a straight course. You will probably want to enlist the aid of a sister or your mother to help with the delegation and followup, because know know going in, that you can not do everything yourself.

Now that you have a different perspective on what it takes to successfully plan and execute a wedding, you'll be able to move forward with confidence to get ready for your special day.
