What To Look For In A Wedding Planning Binder

By Gary Miller


As any newlywed can tell you, planning a wedding means making a lot of different decisions. You also need to keep track of a lot of information. If you have a wedding coming up in your near future, a wedding planning binder may be just what you need to ensure you do not overlook a single detail. Since not all binders are created equal, here are a few things to consider when shopping for a planner of your own.

While wedding apps and planning programs are becoming increasingly possible they aren't always the right choice for every bride. They don't have a way for brides to keep copies of contracts or receipts close at hand, something which can be handy if you suddenly need to deal with a service provider. Many brides like the idea of using a combination of electronic and paper record keeping.

While some brides want to use a generic day planner or a book that has a set number of pages this may not be a great option for planning a wedding. If you want to use your planner effectively, you may want to make sure that you can add extra pages in certain sections. This is especially true if you are planning an event that has a large guest list or if there are many different activities and events happening during your wedding celebration.

Tabs and dividers are essential as they can help keep you more organized and find information much more quickly. If you are working on creating your own binder rather than buying one you will want to make sure that you add in dividers. You can decide what will be in each section. Typically, a planner is divided into ceremony information, reception details and will often have space to add information about clothing and gifts as well.

Pages that feature built in pockets are also an important feature for your planner. It is common to accumulate things like contracts, business cards and receipts and being able to put them into your binder is important.

While you may like the idea of building a planning binder yourself other brides may want a binder that has the basic design already in place. If you want one like this, you can often find them in craft supply stores or shops that are dedicated to the wedding industry.

If you are not having any luck finding pre-made versions you may want to take your search to the internet. Planners are becoming more popular and you may be able to find templates that you can personalize and then print out. If you are not sure what to look for in a template, make sure that there is enough room to write in important information so that your binder is as functional as possible.

Of course, none of this will help if you don't actually use the binder you have. Getting in the habit of transferring your information as it is available will help ensure that you do not overlook important details. This can help make sure that your big day goes as planned and the chance of unexpected surprises will be reduced.
