How to Use a Wedding Planner Diary

Not sure how to start a diary? The wedding planner should feel like your own, so let your personality shine through. To create a diary that really captures your unique wedding planning journey:

• Add lots of photos! Have friends take pictures of you in wedding dresses you might say "yes" to, and upload photos of your dream table settings.
• Tag your entries. When you tag each entry with a category title, like "Dresses" or "Place Cards," you can easily go back and find all diary entries that relate to the same part of your wedding plans.
• Journal about your experience! Don't just jot down a bland account of your wedding dress shopping. Any day you make decisions about your wedding is an important one! Make an effort to recall exactly how you feel during each stage of wedding planning, from nervous to excited to overwhelmed. Recalling how you feel about your wedding planning now lets you compile a more memorable account of the process later.

Remember, your diary entries are secure and can even be password protected -- so your nosy sister can't steal your ideas for her own wedding!
