Wedding timeline vs itinerary
Couples often use these words for different things. One is your detailed wedding-day plan, one is a short shareable schedule, and one is the month-by-month list of what to book before the big day.
Wedding day timeline
Your hour-by-hour plan from getting ready through last dance. Use the detailed version for vendors — with buffers, setup notes, and contacts.
Build your day-of timeline →Wedding itinerary
A simpler view of the same day — mainly where to be and when. Perfect for your wedding party and family who do not need every vendor note.
Open itinerary template →Planning checklist
What to book in the months before the wedding — venue, photographer, invites, dress. This is not your ceremony-day schedule.
