1 Week Before Your Wedding


Make final checks with all your vendors; officiant, musicians, florist, photographer, videographer, limousine or other transportation provider, caterers and baker.

Ask a friend or family member to arrange for wedding gifts that may be brought to your reception to be delivered to your home or another safe spot.

Wrap gifts for bridal attendants and have them ready for rehearsal dinner.

Purchase travelers’ checks and reconfirm honeymoon travel and hotel plans.

See that checks are written and ready to be handed out to vendors at the agreed-upon time.

Inform your caterer of the final number of guests. Confirm that out-of-town guests are set with hotel accommodations, transportation and wedding-day directions.
