Have you thought about buying a planner??

I purchased this great one from Barnes and Nobles and it was only $15. It gives money saving tips and lots of check boxes. It is divided by category (reception, fashion, honeymoon, etc) and there are little folders to store receipts/information and a clear business card holder.

It does seem like a lot of work (and I'm sure it is) but you do not have to do every thing on the list and you can get bridesmaids to help. You can also hire a planner or a day of coordinator. I'm not sure of the fees though.
