Is anyone using a planning book (like a notebook) or a binder? How are you organizing all of your thoughts and notes? Is there a wedding-themed planner you bought/would recommend or did you just use a regular notebook?
Big binder with tabs for each section that has a contract. I also printed out different checklists and budget lists to help. Although I wanted to buy everyone I say in every store I went to, it was just easier to creat my own.
my lil calandar i always walk with, i got the micheal's binder and a folder
I have a notebook and a folder where I keep all my contracts.
My FMIL bought me a Martha Stewart binder and my BFF bought me The Knot workbook (I think that's what it is?). But I haven't used either, I prefer to stick to my 3 ring binder. I have a folder, blank paper, and those plastic sleeves in it. Every time I get a contract, I slip it into one of the plastic sleeves. Seems to be working out for me so far! It's not very organized but it's all in one place for when I need it!
Fun silver glitter binder (target) with labeled tabs to keep vendor prices, contracts, questions, etc. Works out great to have everything in one spot and hardly takes up any room!
Just a 3 ring binder with a folder for contracts, plenty of looseleaf and then a printout of my checklist and budgeter from The Knot. In one of the binder pockets, I keep 'inspiration 'tear sheets if I need to reference when meeting a vendor.
I have a binder.. I think it's called the most amazing wedding planner or something like that.. I bought it more as a keepsake than anything else (my mom has one and it was interesting to go through and see her planning process and what it all cost). For contracts I'm using an accordion folder with sections for vendors with a contract.
I made a wedding binder. I literally put in everything related to the wedding- the guest list, addresses, total money spent so far, deposits made, and contracts
I made a binder with sections in it. Every contract I get I put in one of the clear plastic sleeves so it's in the binder when I need it. I have a word doc with addresses on the computer
My mom got me one when I first got engaged called the brides essential wedding planner and its in a binder so you can take things out that you dont need and add more in it. It's actually really helpful for when I have any questions plus its a good keepsake like rcotter said
I'm using the gartner studios wedding planner from michaels. For my contracts and business cards I bought clear file folders.
I made my own using the Martha Stewart line from Staples. I have divider tabs and a few zip pouches for swatches and stuff
