    Um, how old are you? There are a lot of responsibilities in planning a wedding. And in some instances it doesn’t hurt to be 18-21 years old (seeing that you may have to buy liquor or be at least 18 to reserve a venue). Try theknot.com.

    TheKnot.com will help out a lot.

    You should mention the budget.

    123print.com has very in-expensive invitations that are so cute.

    Good luck!

    P.S. The first person mentioned a wedding planner… this can be really expensive! (average: $1,500)

    You should have a sit down chat with the couple. If you’re happy to take up the challenge that’s great but they need to decide a few things. The Budget, attendents, guestlist and maybe a colour scheme. If she says she really doesn’t want to be involved then just go for things you like and ask your uncle when you get stuck.
    is pretty helpful. There’s a good checklist.

    Don’t get overwhelemed just start with the basics. Pick a date and venue and number of guests.

    Also, buy a ringbinder and try to get organised as soon as you can.

    hey planning a wedding is stressful enough, why are you planning someone elses?

    1-flowers
    2-photography
    3-ceremony site
    4-reception site
    5-food
    6-wedding dress
    7-bridesmaid dresses
    8-cake
    9-alcohol
    10- and alot of other things

    my best advice to you is to log into the knot or type in “printable wedding checklist” it Google and print one out and it will tell you everything you need to know and when it needs to happen
    GOOD LUCK

    The Brides Book of Lists.

    This book has been a life saver for me! Lots of lists, they tell you all the things to consider, how much things would cost, what questions to ask, who to consult, when things should be done by..it’s very simple, and there are places for you to write everything down, and put business cards and that sort of thing. It helped me tremendously.

    There is no way she can avoid making decisions of some kind, just showing up is NOT an option for brides. It is theor party and therefore theirs to help plan.
    1) set a budget feed it into theknot.com
    2) get an idea how many will attend
    3) get a membership to theknot.com and follow the directions there Everything on the checklist on the knot is not required, so you need to know what things are considered must haves by the bridal couple.

    Oh man!! Well first you need the location, the date and a budget. After she has picked all of that, a lot of venues usually have coordinators to help. Good luck
