  • Do It Yourself Wedding Planning Binder!
    This is a simple way to stay organized to begin your wedding planning. Here is where I got everything for the binder:
    - Binder: Target
    - Post-it plastic pockets: Target (also available at Staples or Office Depot)
    - Pocket Dividers: Target (also available at Staples or Office Depot)
    - Sheet Protectors: Target (also available at Staples or Office Depot)
    - Blank calendar sheets were printed off from Windows Microsoft Office - when you select a new document, select "from template" and find the calendar options!
    - Wedding Planning Checklist: I printed it from www.theknot.com
    You have to create an account using an email address. You will then have access to the list, as well as other useful things, including budgeting tips!
    *** Highly recommend TheKnot smartphone app! You can have your wedding planning checklist on the go on your phone!
    - The stamp that was mentioned is from www.papersource.com
    under the "Personalized Gifts & Products" tab. Select "Custom Stamps" and start personalizing your own stamp!
    Thank you so much for watching!
    ***** The Knot changed their website and unfortunately you can't print their list anymore as a PDF, if you try to print it looks very unorganized. Here is a great alternative!!!! www.russellandhazel.com/PDF/We...

    Hello! Thank you so much for this video!! I've had a really hard time finding a wedding binder. I found some "fancy" wedding binders at the bookstore but I find them incredibly overwhelming. This looks like it will help me sort through my wedding planning without making me feel like throwing in the towel and eloping! Haha! Do you have a pdf of the wedding checklist from The Knot? I signed up to the site right after watching your video the first time (yes, I have watched this numerous times) but the checklist looks different and for some reason I cant print a "printer friendly" version! Again, thank you so much!!!

    Hi, if you don't mind... how much was your wedding coordinator/ florist?

    • @AlinaNarr
      @AlinaNarr  9 років тому +1

      MaiLife Hello! Coordinating services were $1600 for the rehearsal and 11 hours on the wedding day. Flowers were around $3200 for ceremony, reception, and bridal party.

    • @PrincessOfTheUniverz
      @PrincessOfTheUniverz 9 років тому

      Alina Narr Noted :) Thanks so much for responding. I have been coordinating and doing flowers for free (for bride friends and friends of friends, because I just truly enjoy it). I wanted to know the rough estimate for such services. I didn't have a planner for my wedding, but my florist was 8k and I was so sure that not everyone would spend that much on just flowers. My wedding was beautiful, but 8k was really steep. I didn't need a planner, if anything, a day off coordinator would've helped. I had a DIY wedding binder similar to yours and it definitely helped. Every time I show a girlfriend who's planning a wedding my binder, they are in awe. I will definitely show them your binder video to show them I wasn't such a "over the top" bride - LOL! It helped gather everything and organize all documents. Thank you for your video, you are helping lots of brides/groom :)

    • @AlinaNarr
      @AlinaNarr  9 років тому +1
