Staying organized and on schedule is a necessity during the planning of your wedding. Otherwise, it can be a real disaster.

First step. Ask! If she says yes, you're on your way to marital bliss.

The second stage. Announce your engagement. This can be done in a variety of ways. For example, a card listing the typography can be sent. These can be sent six months to a year in advance. You will need to review and finalize your guest list at this point. Another method is to use e-mail or e-card to notify your friends and family about your commitment. You probably already have email addresses of most people at this point.

The third step. Decide if you plan your wedding or will you need the help of a wedding planner. There are many resources for wedding planners on the web. If you decide to do it yourself, I recommend you find a checklist to cover all the details you need to remove to make your wedding a complete success.

The fourth step. Come with a wedding budget. This is of vital importance and should not be neglected, or you can spend more money than you anticipated. There are also budgets and free templates that you can download and use to help you.

Fifth stage. Confirm your wedding date, time and place of your event. You will need to confirm that the space you want is available for your wedding date and time. This information should be confirmed so that you can send cards to save the day.

Step six. Determine the type of wedding you would like. Do you want a formal marriage or informal? Black tie wedding? It will also play on the importance of location and time and your marriage.

Seventh step. You will need to determine who will be the celebrant for your ceremony and you'll probably need to go through counseling before your wedding. This is generally not a one-hour visit. Do not forget the marriage license. These rules of your license vary from state to state, so be sure to check in advance at local registrar of the Court.

Step eight. Determine the number of people attending your event. It will be important to get a list of in-laws of the host that they would attend in order of importance. This can be done to save the day. Remember, some guests may just be invited to the reception and not the marriage.

Step nine. Start hotel arrangements for your guests and be sure to get a reduction of the hotel for your party. You will also need to decide on the type of music and timing of the advance as well.

Ten steps. The wedding party. Decide who will be in the wedding and formal dress for both parties.

Step 11. Decide on a wedding photographer. Check their work and ask for references and talk with them. Compare prices as well or if you're not picky, a talented friend to do it.

Step 12. Start looking for a florist who will help you with your flowers and arrangements for the wedding ceremony. Your local garden club may be able to help and reduce costs or give you ideas.

And finally, remember to set up a register of marriage in some places and go over these items with your fiance.

We hope, by using the steps above will help you make your marriage off to a good start.
