For the newly engaged couple who wants every decision, deadline and dollar in one place, Our Wedding Planner is a 164-page printable binder that takes you from "yes" all the way to the honeymoon, with a complete Day-Of Binder built right in. Handwritten script page titles over clean, modern black and white pages with printed side tabs keep it fun and easy to flip to the page you need, whether that's the budget at a vendor meeting or the guest list on RSVP night.
Each section opens with a short guide: what to decide, when to do it, typical costs and the questions to ask. Then come the pages to fill in. About a month before the wedding, Part Two turns into the binder you hand to your coordinator, wedding party and vendors, so you don't need to buy a separate day-of binder.

PRINT IT YOUR WAY
Undated, so you can start the week you get engaged. Print the whole planner once, then reprint the guest list, budget and any other pages you need more of (the printing guide tells you which). It fits a 3-ring or discbound binder. Three printable sizes are included: US Letter, A4 and A5, and you can print pages from the fillable version too.

Four PDF files, 164 pages in each: printable US Letter, A4 and A5, plus a fillable version in US Letter size only, available to download as soon as your order goes through. Part Two, the Day-Of Binder, is in every file, so there's no separate binder to buy for the day itself. The design and layout aren't editable, but the fillable version lets you type into the writing spaces and tick the checkboxes. You can also print any file and fill it in by hand.
Digital download only. No physical item will be shipped.
