The Knot. Be sure to check out their budget calculator too.
There are zillions of websites with wedding planners and countdowns- just google "wedding checklist". Even if, I found the Knot.com checklist really helpful. Brides.com also has checklists and more wedding information.
One thing to keep in mind is to find local resources. Some cities have marriage shows/fairs each year. Look in the newspaper for the just married or actions section and you’ll often find clues to the local traditions. For example some places announce the wedding in the paper months before the wedding, while here its usually the day after or even months later. Plus this section of the newspaper will help you with vendors.
Excellent luck and before you do anything sit down and talk budget (very hard to stick to, but trust me you’ll want to avoid debt).

there can be a whole lot more. The internet is your best friend when it comes to preparation a wedding. I don’t suggest buying all the vital things off the internet. First things first you want to sit down with your fiance and talk about what kind of wedding you want. And remember to make this a fun administer. You will come to a lot of bumps in the road. But try not to let it get to you. Believe me, in the end it will all be worth it. Have fun and excellent luck.

The resources listed below should help you find all that your looking for.

Take mom into consideration but don’t let her get carried away with tradition.

To come up with an overall dress theme look at a number of guest book designs. This will inspire the look of your wedding attire.
