My Checklist
The Knot Wedding Checklist is the most comprehensive list of wedding to-dos available anywhere -- you'll literally find everything you need to know to plan your wedding. Even better, the wedding checklist is completely interactive and customizable to help effortlessly guide you through planning your wedding.
With each wedding checklist to-do, you'll find useful links to articles (from the basics to the latest trends) and thousands of wedding photos on TheKnot.com to help guide and inspire you while planning your wedding. You can also add your own personal to-dos to your wedding checklist (like wedding dress fitting appointments, meetings with the florist, cake tastings, and so on) and easily remove existing to-dos that don’t apply to you.
Because The Knot Wedding Checklist synchs up with your wedding date, you'll have to create an account if you don’t already have one (it takes two seconds!).
When checking off your to-do list opt for those businesses for their specialty.  You wouldn’t to go a cake shop to get a free tuxedo so why spend your valuable time choosing “free” or “½ off” invitations anywhere else.  Your invitations are the first impression your guests receive about your special day.  Choose a company that specializes in invitations & proper wording and time etiquette, like Aly Am Paperie, an expert in wedding invitations and here for you every step of the way.

Invite the Guys to a Couple’s Shower

When you mention the words “bridal shower” to most men, they’ll likely stop listening and resume watching the ball game. Showers don’t involve them anyway, right? Well, that certainly isn’t the case today. One great way to include the groom and his male friends in the pre-wedding festivities is to throw a couple’s shower. Unlike the traditionally female-only “bridal” shower of days past, this modern wedding shower includes both the bride and groom, as well as their male and female friends and/or family.
Couples showers typically focus on guy-friendly theme and gifts, such as lawn and BBQ, home bar, sports, home improvement or the honeymoon. Listening now, guys? I thought so. If you’re thinking about hosting a couples shower or if someone offers to throw one for you, here’s what you need to know:

Who hosts it? Members of the wedding party (groomsmen, bridesmaids or both), friends or family members (siblings, cousins, aunts/uncles, etc.) typically host couples showers. They can be hosted by one person, a couple or a group of people.

Location/venue. Depending on the theme of the shower, these events can be held at the hosts’ home, a local restaurant or bar, or other fun locale.

Who’s invited? Guests typically include close male and female friends of the engaged couple (not limited to couples, of course—don’t forget any single pals!), family members, work colleagues, etc.

Theme/gift ideas. While there’s no rule that says couples showers have to focus on any specific theme, this is a perfect time to choose a theme that appeals to both men and women. So save the kitchen and bath and home décor showers for the girls, and think about more man-friendly themes, such as these:

-       Lawn and BBQ: A great shower to host in a backyard and offer guests grilled fare and cold beverages/cocktails. Gift ideas include grilling tools and accessories, landscaping/gardening tools and equipment, lawn games, fire pits, tiki torches, hammocks, and the like.

-       Stock the Bar: A shower that can be hosted in someone’s home, man cave or at the local watering hole with cocktails and appetizers. Gift ideas include drink ware/bar ware, bar utensils and accessories, bar signs/artwork, bottles of liquor, etc.

-       Sports: For sports-loving couples, this shower can be hosted at a home or venue near/overlooking the engaged couple’s favorite team’s field, stadium, etc. (such as a sports bar, clubhouse or stadium club). Gift ideas include sports-themed items. Popular ideas are tailgating gear, custom team signs/artwork, team logoed drink ware/bar ware/serve ware, apparel or game tickets.

-       Home Improvement: A shower that can be hosted at someone’s home or other fun location. Gift ideas include ladders, power tools and hand tools, tool storage, painting equipment, or hardware store gift cards to help fund larger improvement projects.

-       Honeymoon: A great shower to host at someone’s home or a restaurant with cuisine that matches the honeymoon destination. Depending on the destination, gift ideas could include excursions and activities, snorkeling or skiing gear, hiking equipment, beach towels, travel gear, luggage or travel guides.

Redefine the word “crisis.”
Surprises happen at most weddings, so relax, enjoy, and make the best of things.

Wear your veil every minute you want to feel like a bride.
The minute you take off your veil, you become a married woman in a white dress.
