Harlow Garland have been planning and styling weddings for over 20 years and now we give you the benefit of our experience throughout wedding planning products like this Ultimate Wedding Checklist to guide you through up to 12 months before your wedding month by month and closer to the date, week by week.

We know how overwhelming it can be to see your wedding date approaching and feel the stress of ensuring everything is done in time, with no detail missed.

Our ultimate wedding checklist is a comprehensive list of tasks to tick off along your wedding planning journey.

This will also answer all those questions you have in regard to timing, such as when to send your invitations. This checklist assumes you’re marrying at least six months after engagement but if you’re planning to be wed much sooner, it’s no problem, just look at the tasks to be completed prior to the timeframe you have and eliminate anything which is not relevant to your day. And don’t worry – we’ve planned weddings in as little as five days so you can certainly do it!

Are you opening a new venue or looking to revamp your current offering?

Our venue assessments provide an opportunity for one of our skilled and experienced planners to come in and review your venue, talk to you about your goals, how you’re currently marketing your business, review your strategy and the logistics and processes you use as well as a review of the venue layout and aesthetics to create a plan for how you can take your venue to the next level and achieve your strategic goals.

You’ll receive a full overview of first impressions as well as a comprehensive suite of recommendations for changes to:

• Venue aesthetics

• Venue layout

• Venue logistics

• Marketing plans

• Website and online presence

• Strategy

• Ceremony planning and logistics (if relevant)

• And anything else you’ve either asked for or that we have identified as an area for potential improvement.
