Ladies, I wanted to share this with you. Brides.com sent me this 1-month-to-go Check-off list that I thought you guys may find helpful, too:

 

Congratulations: Your wedding is just 1 month away!

Stay on schedule by tackling these tasks.

 

Call guests who have not mailed back their response cards.

Make your place cards.

Finalize your vows.

Pick up your wedding dress.

Confirm your honeymoon reservations.

Decide whether you want a ceremonial send-off, with rose petals or bubbles; purchase these materials.

Give must-shoot lists to your photographer and videographer.

Give must-play and do-not-play lists to your reception musicians.

Distribute wedding-weekend task lists to key helpers.

Do some stress-relieving activity every day.

Apply for your marriage license.
