our weddings (my own specialty is

coordinators, etc etc.... but now all old, married, with kids, so
cannot run anymore.
The church connection is important. If you are well-connected,
it'll solve half (or more) of your logistical problem.
I'd start with a spreadsheet (never underestimate the power of MS
Excel).
First column: List down the things you [b]WANT to happen
during your wedding.
Second column: List down HOW these things are
GOING to happen, ie, who is the best person to do that. Make sure
that the person is willing to help.
Third column: Budget - need money? how much money? can afford
(yes/no)
Fourth column: The date and time of this event, can sort later in
chronological order, so you can monitor the events.
at the end of the day, relax on the big
day....[/b]
Or can get someone with this type of connection to help run the
event.
