The Wedding Planning Checklist You Actually Need (From an Austin Wedding Planner Who Gets It)

Let’s be real: planning a wedding isn’t always champagne and cake tastings. It’s also spreadsheets, vendor calls, budget stress—and trying not to spiral when your mother asks you (yet again) if she can bring another distant cousin to your wedding.

If that sounds familiar, take a deep breath. You’re not alone—and you don’t have to figure it all out by yourself.

At Imperfectly Planned, we offer mindful, down-to-earth wedding planning services for couples in Austin, Texaswho want to create meaningful, joyful weddings without the burnout. Whether you’re just getting started or halfway through planning and ready to hand over the clipboard, we’ve got you.

To help you get organized (and stay sane), we created a free wedding planning checklist—designed especially for real couples.

What Makes This Checklist Different?

Most wedding checklists feel generic and overwhelming. Ours doesn’t. Whether you're planning a large Hill Country celebration or a backyard ceremony in East Austin, this checklist supports your unique vision.

It’s flexible, intentional, and realistic—plus, it includes gentle reminders to breathe, connect with your partner, and stay grounded in what actually matters.

We’ve broken it down month by month so you know what to focus on and when to rest. (Yes, rest is on the list.)

What’s Inside:

  • A 12-month wedding planning timeline

  • Booking reminders for Austin vendors

  • Gentle mindset check-ins to reduce stress

  • Sections to define your wedding values + non-negotiables

  • Wiggle room for when life doesn’t go as planned
