The Bride's Essential Mini 411: Checklists, Calendars, Contacts

This is the perfect little planner for someone who doesn't want to carry a big honkin' binder everywhere. Used it myself and would use it again if I had to plan the wedding all over again.

Very helpful to have a checklist on hand instead of making to do lists on scattered papers and in your head and in planners.

Great

I am so excited to start using this. It has everything.

My sister bought the big deluxe version and it it huge so I did not expect the mini to be so so small , other wise its ok ....

Decent information, but outdated. Calendar is old

This is the perfect resource for the bride who wants to take all her wedding planning details along with her in her purse/pocket, and who ALSO appreciates having a hard copy, aka physical book, to look at. My mom gave me this nifty little book as a present when I was just beginning to get well into the process of planning my wedding. I had it all set in my mind that I was going have a simple wedding. Well- I did. It was semi-formal, we didn't have any attendants, and we only had something like 22 guests. I ALSO had it all set in my mind that since it was a small wedding, it wouldn't be AT ALL stressful to plan, and I could keep track of my checklists in my head. Well- that part I was wrong about. This mini planner is small but mighty, in my opinion. It helped me so much with my mental clarity. I also used online planning tools, and they definitely had their place, but sometimes it was just easier to leaf through this little book rather than pull up my browser and navigate between tabs. Plus, it was just so satisfying when I would complete an item, to mark it off with a great, big checkmark with my pen. I say, get this book. There are other resources to help you plan, but this will earn its spot as part of your toolkit by being an all-in-one. It has categories and items you may not even have thought of, that I didn't see on a checklist anywhere else. But it's all here, at a glance, on paper.
