here's one for 2-4 months before:

* Meet with your florist to order your wedding flowers. Bring a sketch or photo of your wedding dress and color swatches of your bridesmaids' dresses.
* Address all wedding invitations and announcements.
* Finalize your music selection with the disk jockey or other entertainment.
* Check with your bridesmaids and groomsmen to make sure they've gotten their attire, confirm arrival times, and answer any last minute questions. Be sure attendants are kept informed of rehearsal plans, other commitments they have.
* Contact your vendors (caterer, officiant, cake baker, photographer, videographer, florist, musicians, transportation, and hotels) to confirm arrival and delivery times.
* Write and print your wedding program.
* Create welcome baskets for out-of-town guests.
* Send change-of-address information to post office.
* Ask your mother or maid of honor to contact any guests who have not sent the RSVP card.
* Plan the ceremony, reception, menus, master of ceremonies, music, and timetables.
* Finalize plans for the rehearsal dinner and bridesmaids' luncheon.
* Address and mail the wedding invitations.
* Plan the reception seating, if necessary.
* Consult relevant newspapers for requirements on wedding announcements.
* Have a formal portrait taken in wedding dress for newspaper announcement.
* Consult your hairstylist about your wedding hairstyle.
* Consult your makeup person about wedding day makeup.
* Investigate legal details, such as naming fiancé as beneficiary in will and life insurance, obtaining insurance to cover joint property, consolidating auto insurance, opening joint bank accounts, etc.
* If you will be changing your names, make a list of where you need to do this and when.
* If you will need foreign money for the honeymoon, make arrangements to obtain it.
* Give a list of 'important shots' to your wedding photographer.
* Discuss your menu with your wedding caterer.
* Meet with your officiant to discuss the service.
* Write your vows.
* Attend any wedding showers.

hahah half of the stuff on there is stuff that you probably won't do...like take a formal shot to send to the newspaper. a lot of the other stuff is stuff you've probably already done, like talk to your hairdresser and MUA about the wedding and meet with the florist.

also- this list is for 2-4 months before, so a lot of this stuff is coming but can't be done yet like calling those pesky people who didn't rsvp
