Planning Tools: Which one to use?
With all the wedding planning resources popping up on the web, it can be overwhelming to find one that works for you. I have narrowed it down to three which I believe provide very useful and comprehensive planning tools for free. Sure, other sites may offer tools for one task or another, but I suggest that you stick with one site that can offer all the tools you need from start to finish. That way, all your information is in the same place and accessible from any computer.
I suggest using the time-saving interactive tools the websites provide with built in calculators, e-mail lists for your guests, etc, as well as buying an accordion folder or other paper filing system that works for you. There are also many paper books and binders which look lovely - but I’ll stick to reviewing the on-line tools for now.
You'll find my ultimate recommendation below the reviews. I don't want to sway your decision before you've read my assessments of each site.

Five Tips for Wedding Entertainment on a Budget
It’s at the top of almost every smart bride’s agenda: find a way to save some money.
The solution is simple when it comes to dresses (go pre-owned), favors (do without or DIY). Saving money on flowers and decoration takes creativity and restraint, but many brides get stuck when it comes to entertainment.

Unfortunately, they see their only choices as “spend too much money” or “ipod.” To save you (and your guests) from the ipod reception, GigMasters.com has got 5 tips for you:

Ten Questions to Ask a Wedding DJ or Band Leader
The first time you meet with any wedding vendor you have questions. Or rather, you know you’re supposed to have questions but sometimes figuring out what those questions should be can be almost as difficult as figuring out the answers!
