Track every trend decision.

How the trends checklist works

The tasks fall into four phases. Twelve months out you decide which trends match your values and check their real impact on the guest list, budget, and schedule. Six months out you align family communication, update budget lines, and start planning digital invitations, e-wedsites, and sustainable decor options. In the final months you adjust the timeline, track RSVPs against the revised list, and confirm trend-related bookings. In the last month you share the updated plan with family leads, run through any new formats, prepare guest instructions, confirm vendor understanding, and review whether the trend improved the experience.

The category view groups the same tasks by the work itself — deciding and aligning, checking budget and guest impact, planning and booking, tracking and adjusting, and final confirmations — so you can focus on one area at a time.
