I need a website that will tell me how far from my wedding date should i do each thing, example: pick out dress 1 year from wedding date, buy rings 6 months from wedding date, find caterer 2 months from wedding date, visit florist 3 weeks from wedding date. Sorry i didn't know how else to explain it. I looked on the knot.com and couldn't find what i was looking for.
