Many a new bride finds herself in a very stressful position during the planning of her wedding; she worries that during all the hullabaloo and fuss that she may overlook some crucial detail and ruin her big day.

"How can I possibly keep up with everything? Well, this checklist will make your life a little easier as you scramble around in preparation for the Biggest Day Of Your Life.

Don't give yourself a cardiac right before your wedding; it's perfectly acceptable (and expected) for you to offload a significant portion of the planning duties to other people. The women in your life are ready and willing to help you out, now more than ever. They'll consider themselves honored to be a part of getting you ready for your big day; if they need you to ask them for help, go ahead and do it.
Make sure you take the time to hold a "dress rehearsal" for yourself. Put on your entire bridal ensemble and get accustomed to moving around in it. This is the best way to ensure that you don't have any last minute problems with poorly-fitted clothing or shoes.
Do your best to select unique wedding favors; favors are an often-overlooked way to leave a lasting emotional impression with your guests when they recall your wedding.
It's OK to use an amateur photographer or videographer for your wedding, but if you do, ask to see some type of example of their past work - you don't want to be someone's lab-rat. If you aren't comfortable with the composition of their shots and the overall feel of their photos, don't even consider using them. Wedding photos are obviously impossible to re-shoot, and this is one are that you need to be confident that you're getting what you expect.
Book the time and venue of your ceremony / reception as soon as you can; some feel that scoring a sweet deal at the last minute due to others' cancellations is a nice way to save money on weddings, but this method of choosing a location is just too risky. The stress won't be worth the money you might save.

Your special day needs to be just that special. We hope this checklist will help you to achieve your goal of enjoying the best day of your life to the maximum!
