Today marks 30 days until I’m a married woman! Honestly seems like just yesterday we got engaged… Where does time go? I wanted to share some of my favorite gift ideas, DIY’s and wedding prep tips. Hope you enjoy!
- Gift Ideas: Personalization!
I love personalized gifts. Here are some I have so far:
- Utilize ETSY!
Etsy has been my bestfriend through wedding planning. From bridesmaid jewelry to seating chart templates, they seriously have it all. I’ve found so many easy-to-use templates that make having gorgeous hand outs and unique seating charts simple! Most come in different size PDF’s that you populate with your information and there you have it! I plan to share my final printouts when they are complete 🙂

- Organize & Keep up on RSVP’s!
You can’t have too many lists. I have multiple lists of the same items and trust me.. I need them all! There are so many helpful checklist books out there. Use them! They have helped me keep on track & plus it’s fun to check off as you go 🙂
Don’t be afraid to bug your guests about returning their RSVP’s! You will want to know an exact number in attendance for multiple reasons. The way I’ve kept track is printing a list of all the invitees, and putting the number attending next to the name.. As they come in the mail I keep it updated.. then you don’t fall behind and end up scrambling last minute for a final number!
Anyone else planning a wedding? What are your tips? It’s been a fun process, but I’m at the point where I’m ready for the planning to be over, and to just be married ❤
LOVE!! Such great tips, you’ve done an awesome job! It will all pay off when you see the vision fully come together. You’re wedding will be the most beauitful ever- can’t wait!

Congrats on your upcoming wedding! I also used that same book by the Knot back when I was engaged and it was so helpful. Enjoy every moment because time flies by- my husband and I just had our one year anniversary and it feels like the wedding was yesterday 🙂 xo

Hey there! Thanks so much for stopping by my blog & following along! I can’t wait to read more of yours after I’m done picking my jaw up off the counter from all the cute!
Etsy was a godsend during my wedding, oh my gosh! I think I got everything from there except the dress, ha! I think I’m reading this rather late, so you must be so much closer to the big day by now! So so exciting and can’t wait to see! Hope you have a perfect day!
