The Guest List

But sometimes one has to cut on the guest list depending on the budget and also the venue (how many guests it can accommodate). Then according to that one can tick off their guest list mark.
Vendors
As per the budget one has to pick on the vendors. Wedding planning game plays a major role here. One may not know how exactly a wedding to do list look like. There are plenty of online resources that can help one in this case. One can also take help of friends and family members who have efficiently planned a wedding before.
