Wedding Planning | DIY Planning Binder

March 10, 2014 by VivianBishopxo 1 Comment

Today for my second wedding planning post I wanted to share my DIY wedding planning binder. I got the inspiration from several outlets online and found blog posts on how they found it useful to put together your own binder. I liked this idea because some bridal books are roughly $30.00+ and I liked the idea of making this custom to our needs. I have major OCD when it comes to organization, so this was exciting and fun for me.

A wedding planning binder is essential, but it can be expensive. I have found free inserts and tips for creating your own ultimate planning binder!

What you need:
– 1 inch or bigger; binder
– 10 dividers (depends on your needs)
– Paper protector sleeves
– Post it notes
– Wedding lists and templates

– These are the free templates I used and printed. – These are great, they have every check list you need and other worksheets that will come in handy when dealing with budgeting, vendors, registry, rentals, etc.


I added clear page protectors to keep all receipts or business cards in. Everything from brochures, information packets, contact information from venues, etc all is stored in this binder. I also kept another folder for RSVPS, gifts, and thank you cards. I had to stay organized when it came to keeping track of gifts and who was coming to the wedding. I used post it notes for to-do lists each week so I knew what needed to be done or who needed to be called that week.
Let me know some of your tips for staying organized and within budget when planning a wedding! Take this with you to bridal shows, and you wont regret it. It helped me so much!
Did this help you? What did you use/what will you use to plan your wedding?
