    matters next

    A few things to do now, while everything else waits for the right time.

  • Status and who’s on it

    In progress, done or not for us, and assigned to you, your partner or both.

  • Tips and questions to ask

    Including the one thing couples often forget, and what to ask vendors.

Book your wedding photographer

Compare full galleries, coverage hours and delivery times

Photography & Video12+ Months Before · 8–18 months

Book your photographer 9–12 months before the wedding, after your venue and date are confirmed, or up to 18 months ahead for popular peak-season dates.

Steps

0/8

Photos are one of the few things you’ll keep long after the day, and popular photographers can book early, especially for weekend dates in peak season. Booking once your date and venue are fixed lets you check availability properly, compare full galleries rather than highlights, and make sure their style, coverage and delivery times fit the way you want to remember the day.

Comprehensive underneath, calm on top

Everything to plan. Nothing to panic about.

The complete checklist behind the scenes, and a plan that only shows you what’s useful today.

  • Now, Next, Later

    Your plan shows the few things worth doing this week. The rest is safely remembered.

  • Plan it together

    Assign tasks, see who’s handling what and send your plan to your partner with a private link.

  • Adapts to your wedding

    Destination, micro, courthouse or planned fast: tasks and timing change to match.

  • Flexible windows, not fake deadlines

    “Good time to start” and “worth doing soon.” Only truly fixed dates become urgent.

  • In your calendar

    Export every open task to Google Calendar, Apple Calendar or Outlook in one tap.

  • On paper

    Print your plan with your dates, owners and notes, or the full checklist for the fridge.

  • Your own tasks

    Add anything the checklist doesn’t cover, from the tea ceremony to picking up grandma.

  • Private and on your phone

    Saved on your device, no account needed. Add it to your home screen and it works offline.

Wedding favors? Not for us ✓

Traditional checklists quietly make every tradition feel mandatory. ReadyToWeddy doesn’t. Mark anything that doesn’t fit as “Not for us” and it leaves your plan.

  • You don’t need this just because it’s traditional.
  • If it doesn’t matter to either of you, skip it.
  • Done is sometimes better than perfect.

Questions, answered

What is ReadyToWeddy?

ReadyToWeddy is a free, personalized wedding planning checklist. It combines a complete wedding planning guide with a planner that knows your date, so it shows the few things that matter now and remembers everything else for later.

Is ReadyToWeddy free?

Yes. The full checklist, every guide and your personal plan are free, with no credit card and no account needed to start.

Do I need a wedding date to start?

No. Without a date, you start with the Getting Started checklist: priorities, budget, guest estimate and venue research. Add a date whenever you have one and your full timeline switches on.

What if our wedding is only a few months away?

ReadyToWeddy compresses the timeline to fit the time you have. Instead of a wall of overdue tasks, you get a simpler plan that starts with the essentials: budget, guest count, venue, legal requirements and the vendors that matter most.

Can we plan it together?

Yes. Assign any task to yourself, your partner or both of you, and filter the checklist to see just your own. To get your plan onto your partner’s phone, send them a private link from the Wedding page.

Can I add it to my calendar or print it?

Yes. Export every open task to Google Calendar, Apple Calendar or Outlook, or print your plan with your own dates, owners and notes. There’s also a free printable version of the full checklist.

Where is my plan saved?

On your device, in your browser. You don’t need an account, and ReadyToWeddy keeps working offline once it’s installed or opened. Clearing your browser data removes the plan, so use the private link to keep a copy.

Does ReadyToWeddy work for any kind of wedding?

Yes. It’s built for all couples and all kinds of weddings: civil, religious or symbolic, local or destination, tiny or large. Tasks adapt to your answers, and anything that doesn’t fit can be marked “Not for us.”

ReadyToWeddy remembers everything, so you don’t have to.

Every task accounted for, and only the right few in front of you today.
