Wedding Checklist: 3-5 Months Before the Wedding

These two months come with a variety of tasks, some monotonous and some fun!

It’s time to start researching marriage license requirements and name-change paperwork if you’re taking your fiancé’s name.

You should also concentrate on finalizing the:

• Guest List
• Invitation wording and design
• Programs
• Menus/ Catering Details
• Place Cards
• Thank You Cards

If you’re choosing to have wedding favors it’s time to start ordering those, as well as any other decor you’re planning on using for your special day.

You should also schedule your rehearsal and reserve your rehearsal dinner location. You’ll need to put together a rehearsal dinner guest list and notify those you’re inviting so the can make travel arrangements.

Now for the extra fun stuff!
During this time you should shop and purchase your wedding rings, guest book, toasting flutes, etc.
​
You should also do a hair and makeup trial and book your stylist. It’s perfectly normal if you need more than one trial to make sure you feel your best, after all it’s your day!

It’s also time to go over your bridal shower and bachelorette details and compile a guest list with those hosting your parties.

Last but not least, finalize your honeymoon plans and obtain all necessary documents, such as passports.
