If you are looking for a Maid of Honor planner, you have come to the right place!
So, you just got asked to be the maid of honor at your BFF’s (or sister’s) wedding – how exciting is that?!
It’s a pretty big job but I know that you’re up for the challenge.
There are so many details that you are going to want to keep track of. That’s why you need a maid of honor planner to help you stay organized from start to finish.
It’ll be your go-to for planning the bachelorette party, keeping the bridesmaids in the loop, and helping out with the bridal shower.
Trust me, you don’t want to try and keep all of this in your head.
So, let’s get planning and make this the best wedding ever!
The Maid of Honor/Matron of Honor has a lot of different things to keep track of leading up to the big day.
Here are some of the most important items that should go into a MOH planner during the wedding planning process:
One of the most important Maid of Honor duties is typically planning a super fun bachelorette party.
Some of the things that you are going to need to plan and keep track of are:
Another important thing to add to your MOH Planner is a section for attire and accessories.
Typically the Maid of Honor is the point of contact for the other bridal party members when it comes to getting fitted and ordering bridesmaids dresses in a timely fashion.
You want to keep track of delivery times and dress fittings, and you want to make sure all accessories have been purchased and delivered.
You could even make a section in there for the bride’s dress just in case.
Typically the bride and the Mother of the Bride will have their own planner where this information will be kept, but it never hurts to have that info in your planner too.
And since you will most likely go wedding dress shopping with the bride-to-be, go ahead and include a section in your wedding binder for the bride’s dress and any accessories that she needs.
One of the major Maid of Honor duties on the wedding day is being the point person for vendors and anyone else who might have questions for the bride (especially if there is not a wedding planner).
You will want to have a mobile copy of the following items in your planner so that you can access them anytime you need them:
Grab a free copy of our bridal shower planning timeline and bachelorette party planning timeline and put them in your Maid of Honor planner.
You will want to have a bridesmaid packing list checklist that you can send (or give a physical copy) to each bridesmaid before the bachelorette party, bridal shower, and wedding day weekend.
This checklist will help everyone bring everything they need (clothes for each event, accessories, toiletries, chargers, money for tips, etc.).
You can download our free printable bridesmaid packing list and checklist here.
One of the most important tasks on a Maid of Honor checklist is writing an amazing Maid of Honor speech for your best friend.
Keep a few note pages in your planner so you can write down ideas as you think of them.
Typically the MOH and the other bridesmaids go in on a gift together to give to the bride-to-be.
Have a section in your planner to keep track of ideas and expenses.
If the bride wants help coming up with song playlists for the reception and pre-wedding events like the Bachelorette Party, Bridal Shower, and Engagement Party you can keep a section in your binder for all of these ideas.
Side note on music: As the Maid of Honor, you should make sure that the reception dance floor stays busy. If you see the bride’s friends sitting at tables or hanging out by the bar, pull them out on the dance floor.
The more that the guests dance, the more the bride will dance.
On the morning of the wedding, the photographer is going to want to take photos of all of the little details like the bride’s bouquet, invitation, jewelry, shoes, etc.
Have a checklist in your planner so you can hand it to the photographer with the items.
This way the photographer knows everything that the bride wants to be photographed.
Many times the Maid of Honor plans or helps the Mother of the Bride plan a bridal shower or a couple’s wedding shower.
You will want to keep a section in your binder for all of these details.
Some of the things you will want to keep organized are:
You will want to have a way to keep all of the money details organized and in one place for yourself and the other bridesmaids.
There are so many things to pay for during the wedding planning process and by staying organized, you avoid being surprised by all of the little (and big) expenses.
Here are some of the items you will want to keep track of when it comes to budgets and money:
