Plan Item Done

How do I check off an item in the EZWeddingPlanner plan that I have already done?

 Towards the top is a "Display done ..." yes/no - check yes and then press Do It. What happens when you say "no" to Display done is that items checked at the left just disappear. This way only the items yet to be completed will show on your screen. To see all items (including the ones you've done checked in red), click "yes" and then Do It.

The EZWeddingPlanner Plan is one of your best resources to help you stay on track and not forget any of those little or critical details in your wedding. You can add your own items that are specific to your wedding - people to call, things to buy, things you don't want to forget, and then you will receive email reminders of those items as they come due. You can also delete any plan items that do not pertain to your wedding, so feel free to really tailor your EZWeddingPlanner plan to your wedding.

Chicago Wedding

Do you happen to know anything about planning a very small wedding by the lake in Chicago?

Here are some suggestions: Buckingham Fountain in Grant Park is very pretty with a concrete plaza. Oak Street Beach - anywhere around there, including a restaurant like the Oak Street Beach Bistro (open seasonally). The Shed aquarium or thereabouts. Or the North Avenue Beach boathouse which is shaped like a ship. You could check with the Chicago Park District for details on areas around the lake. Also, there are botanical gardens in the northern suburbs that are very beautiful. Or the Lincoln Park conservatory (not quite on the water, but very nice). If you want to get married on the water, try the Spirit of Chicago which also has a show and dancing (312-836-7888) or for top of the line, Odyssey Cruise (312-321-7620).

Change Budget

How do I change the budget amount in EZWeddingPlanner?

In the budget section, enter the amount in each box you want to change. Be sure to click update before you leave the screen. Then the totals will be updated. Or, you can click on the item name on the left and get a new screen that you can edit.

The budget section is a powerful tool that lets you keep track of your total wedding expenses, who pays for which expense, how much has already been paid (deposit) and what is left to be paid. This helps keep you on track and on budget.
