Choosing the Right Location with The Knot

The setting often sets the mood for the whole event in New England where there are many old chapels and cobblestone paths. But how do you pick the best spot from all of them? Come into The Knot. The Knot is famous for its wedding planning tools that do everything. It has a huge database of places to hold events from big ballrooms to cute barns all over New England.

To get started use their Venue Finder tool Wedding Venues The Knot to narrow down your choices by size style and even price. Want something close to the water? Not a problem. Looking for a rustic vineyard in Massachusetts? They also have that. Reading reviews and looking at pretty pictures will show you what other brides liked (or didn't like) about each place. These small things often help you decide.

The Knot also has a "virtual tours" feature that lets you see inside without having to drive for hours. It's a big deal to be able to look at places online when some places can be booked years in advance.

Keeping track of things with Trello

Now that you've picked a place it's time to get down to the nitty gritty. Trello is a great way to stay organized. You can think of the boards in this project management tool as digital corkboards where you can pin all of your wedding related ideas.

You can make boards for seating charts guest lists and vendor contracts. If you have a partner or a wedding planner you can also share them with them. You can set deadlines for things like when to send out save the dates and check off tasks as you go along with Trello.

Trello works with other apps like Google Calendar which is one of its best features. This way you won't miss cake tastings or florist appointments. Brides who have to do a lot of different things can make sense of the chaos by having a "wedding hub."

Using Mint to Keep Track of Your Wedding Costs

Weddings can cost a lot of money and prices in New England aren't always cheap. Mint is a great way for brides to save money. If you keep track of every dollar you spend on vendors and other things you can look at the numbers without being scared.

Mint can connect directly to your bank accounts and automatically sort your expenses into groups. This makes a live budget worksheet that you can use to see if you're still sane. Make a budget for everything related to the wedding including the food and the beautiful wedding dress made in Vermont. If costs go over the limits Mint will let you know.

Mint is very helpful because it gives you budgeting tips and alerts. Mint will show you how much you spend and give you tips on how to cut back if you don't know why some of your bills seem so high. This is very helpful in New England where prices can go up quickly (lobster we're looking at you).

Plan your designs and get ideas from Pinterest.

Pinterest is like a mood board for your computer. There are a lot of pictures when you search for wedding ideas in New England. You can narrow down your search by what you're interested in. You might only want ideas for a Maine wedding in the winter that is warm and cozy. No matter what Pinterest has pictures that can give you ideas.
