How to Plan a Wedding Step by Step (Free Wedding Planning Class!)

Updated: Aug 24

Planning a Wedding Doesn’t Have to Feel Like a Full-Time Job (But It Usually Does)


When I first started in the wedding industry, I remember looking around for something—anything—that would walk me through how to plan a wedding without all the chaos. I wanted a real roadmap, not just a pretty Pinterest board or a printable checklist with no context. I searched every wedding planning website, read every wedding planning book I could find, and even downloaded every free wedding planning checklist and app out there.

And while they looked helpful on the surface, they left me more overwhelmed than when I started. Sound familiar?


That’s exactly why I created Bridal Bootcamp—a totally free wedding planning class that walks you through a simple 4-step system to plan your dream wedding with clarity, confidence, and way less stress.

Why I Created This Wedding Planning Class


I’ve been a wedding planner for over two decades. I’ve seen it all—from the color-coded brides who burn out halfway through the process, to the overwhelmed couples who put off planning until the last minute because it all just feels like too much.


The truth is, most wedding planning resources out there are either:


  • Too generic (A 12-month timeline that doesn’t even match your engagement length)

  • Too chaotic (Pinterest boards, social media advice, family opinions… it’s a lot)

  • Too pushy (Vendors who expect you to know exactly what you want right away)


So I built something BETTER—a class that simplifies the entire experience into a clear, repeatable system that works no matter your style, budget, or timeline.



What You’ll Learn in the Free Wedding Planning Class:


This isn’t just a feel-good pep talk (though you’ll definitely leave encouraged). You’re going to walk away with:


  • The Top 3 Wedding Planning Mistakes Most Couples Make And how they’re secretly draining your time, energy, and excitement.


  • The Secret to Planning a Wedding that wedding planning websites and big-budget blogs won’t tell you—because if they did, you wouldn’t need 87 vendor ads and 14 different wedding planning apps to get it done.


  • My Proven 4-Step Wedding Planning ProcessThis process helps you clarify your vision, break down your budget, reduce overwhelm, and build a plan that actually works.


  • A BONUS Wedding Day Emergency Kit ChecklistJust for showing up, you’ll get a free printable checklist that helps you prep for anything that could go wrong on the big day—from fashion fixes to first-aid essentials.


Who This Class Is For:


  • If you’ve ever searched “how to plan a wedding” and gotten 500 tabs open with conflicting advice


  • If you’ve downloaded a wedding planning checklist but didn’t know what to do with it


  • If you want to feel confident and organized, but the current system feels like information overload


  • If you’re using multiple wedding planning websites and still don’t feel clear on your next step


  • If you’ve been told “just enjoy the process” but secretly hate the stress of it all


This class is your starting line.


What Makes This Different From Other Wedding Planning Tools?


There are thousands of wedding planning websites and free templates out there—but this isn’t just more information. It’s transformation. Wedding Planning 101 is designed to take you from stressed to structured.


Here’s what sets it apart:


  • No gatekeeping: I’m sharing the exact 4-step method I use with my own clients.


  • Real talk: We’re not pretending this is all sunshine and satin—we deal with real decisions and drama.


  • Practical tools: From timelines to checklists to vendor communication, this isn’t theory—it’s actionable.


And did I mention it’s FREE?
