Do You Need a Wedding Planner?

 So, you've just said yes.
Congratulations, your now on your way to aisle full of decisions, financial management, and last minute bugs. I like to call the "bugs" because they are the small things that you step over and forget until they come crawling out at you right when you have less than a minute to spare.

You don't need an exterminator to rid yourself of party bugs. What you do need, however, is a wedding planner.

Now, you might decide that it worth your money to hire an actual person to help assist you in your wedding plans. But, you may find that you don't really need a person, so much as, you do need a wedding planner.

Not a person, then what is a wedding planner?

Well, if you don't need a person to plan your wedding, then you will need a calender, a to-do list, a pencil (you may find all the times things change that a pencil is best for erasing things. Pen tends to get messy after all that scribbling.) and a binder.

Now days, we all have some sort of planner. Some of us carry them in our cell phones, iPad's or PDA's. Some us use built in calendars in our laptops and email programs. Then there are those of us who still prefer the touch of real pages and carry around a paper planner.

A planner helps you keep track of your day to day appoints, responsibilities, and even shopping lists.

That is why you'll find it is important to have a wedding planner of your own. Whether it is human, mechanical, or paper-- a wedding planner will help keep you organized and keep the bugs from scurrying out unattended during your special day.

Tuscan Themed Customized Day Planner

She asked for it, and I created it.  Months ago, before Christmas, one of my sisters made the remark on facebook that she wanted me to make her a day planner.  Wouldn't you know it happened that I ended up with her name in the Christmas gift drawing.  So I went to work on creating excately what she asked for.

The day planner itself is constructed of a  "6 x "9 x 1" three ring binder.  The front and back were designed and covered with scrapbooking paper and covered with a plastic sleeve.

Inside the book I broke it into five sections:

Weekly Planner 

Grocery List

Food Journal

Address Book

Notes

Each page was designed specifically by me to match a tuscan theme.  Each week contains a small fact about Itailian culture - words,people, places, and wine making.  As you can see their is a consistant grape and wine theme flowing from one page to the other.

I'm currently working on an apple orchard theme for my mother, both the apple and the tuscan theme will be available soon in my etsy store.

I can happily say, my sister was thrilled and now enjoying her customized Tuscan Themed Day Planner, I guess this means I'll be designing another customized day planner soon for my other sister.  She too will want one after seeing this.  Oh what fun, with my sisters' birthdays less then a month a way, I'd better get busy!
