Once you have set a wedding date:
- Determine the type of wedding you will have, taking into account location (may vary with season), theme, number of guests and formality.
- Create an approximate guest list. This will impact your ceremony site and reception selection.
- Determine your budget and how expenses will be shared.
- Hire a wedding consultant.
- Select and reserve ceremony site and reception location(s), and select and book wedding officiant.
- Order your bridal attire.
- Ensure that you have all documents needed for marriage licenses (see How to get married in BC) and honeymoon travel (valid passport).
6-9 months before the wedding is the time to:
- Determine colour scheme.
- Select and book your florist.
- Book your service providers: wedding photographer, videographer, musicians for the ceremony, DJ or live band or DJ for the reception, limousine, etc. If required, also book your caterers, tent, and other rental items.
4-6 months prior to the wedding:

- Select and order invitations & wedding stationery.
2-4 months prior to the wedding:
- Meet your wedding decorator to select decorations;
- Select and order wedding cake and party favours;
