Wedding Planner (Binders?)
Any suggestions on a good planner/binder?
Well I'm wanting to start gather ideas, guestlists, and all of that, so I was wondering if anyone had any ideas of a DIY planner/binder, or a great one to buy. I've searched on Amazon, but I couldn't really find any that suited me.

When I got engaged I went out and bought this huge wedding planner book at Barnes and Noble.  I'm finding that I'm not using it much at all though and am actually just using  one of those binders that has like 10-20 slots.  We just labeled each section things like "Church", "Reception", "Photography", etc. and then we're filing important papers and such in each part.  It's simple but helps you keep track of everything you get in the planning process.

I  LOVE my Martha Stewart wedding binder. It is a large green binder that you can get a Barnes & Noble or Books a Million.  It is really nice, and  doesn’t have any cheesy pictures on the front of it. It has room in the back for business cards and folders to put loose papers in. It also has a great timeline planner and really fun Martha Stewart suggestions. I also went online, printed out a calendar , and added it to the back. I also printed my inspiration board, and put in a paper protector in the front of the binder. It will make a really nice keepsake as well :)

I just made my own because I could not find one that suited my every need. I just bought a binder added paper, tabs, a few folders for papers. I also added a clear sleeve to keep swatches and stuff like that neatly in place.

i went the cheap, easy route. I bought a 3inch binder w/ a clear cover on it, a few dividers & titled them each with pretty generic names (ie. bride & groom. bridal party. venue & guestlist, ceremony, reception) then took cardstock and made mini dividers to section out each area more specifically. decorated the cover, and voila- my personal binder to keep everything organized for less than $5
