What is a DIY wedding to-do list?

Begin twelve months ahead by agreeing on your budget and guest list, then choose a date and book the venue. Give notice at the register office at least 28 days before the ceremony, but do this early to be safe. Six months out, plan your legal ceremony details, such as witnesses and any readings. Then start your DIY projects: design your invitations, order paper and envelopes, and begin collecting jars, fabric, and other materials. Four months before, make your centrepieces and table decorations, and print your order of service booklets. Two months before, assemble and post your invitations, and confirm your guest list. One month before, make your welcome board, place cards, and favour tags. Two weeks before, bake any non-perishable treats and freeze them. One week before, pack everything into labelled boxes, and confirm final numbers with your venue and caterer. On the day before, set up the venue with your helpers. On the day, enjoy yourself and let someone else handle any last-minute issues.
