You'll definitely need a valid driver's license or state ID and some states require birth certificates and social security cards as additional proof of identity and age.

If you do have to order any documents, do so as soon as possible and check the status of these once a week. This is an extremely important wedding planning checklist and you'll want to stay on top of this.

You'll want to have lists for flowers, the photographer and the caterer on your master wedding planning checklist. What flowers have you chosen and on which date do you order them? Have you discussed food with the caterer? If friends or family are providing the food, have you decided on the menu? Make a list of everything you will be serving, who will be making what and when and which ingredients to buy.

In fact, you may want to incorporate into your master wedding planning checklist a list of all the things you need to buy, from the wedding dress to a new punchbowl set.

When you send out the invitations, you'll want to keep track of who has RSVPd and who has declined. You can do this on your master wedding planning checklist. It's important that you know how many guests for which to plan.
