About this site

This site is a wedding schedule generator. You give it a date, a rough guest count and the shape of your wedding, and it gives you a dated, triaged, printable plan — with real calendar dates on every task, and an honest account of what has to give if there is not enough time.

What it is not

It is not a wedding planning service. It is not a directory, and it does not recommend vendors. It is not a source of legal requirements — the licence task tells you what to look up and where, and nothing more. And it does not sell you anything from the wedding industry.

No one in the wedding industry pays for anything here

There are no vendor recommendations, no affiliate links, no registry links and no sponsored placements anywhere on this site. It takes no money from venues, marketplaces, stationers or suppliers. That claim is the differentiator, so it is stated plainly.

How it is funded

The site is funded by a single content locker on the home page: if you open the Binder, you may be shown an offer from an advertiser before it unlocks. The free schedule, the budget worksheet, the day-of run sheet and every guide are complete and free either way. The offers shown are curated and independent of the wedding industry — this site takes no money from vendors. Your wedding date never leaves your browser, including when you open the Binder.

Wedding Planner and Event Timeline Editor

Sofia Bennett is a wedding planner and event-timeline editor with more than 11 years of experience coordinating intimate ceremonies, multi-venue celebrations, and short-engagement timelines. Her work focuses on sequencing decisions so couples know what must happen first, what can wait, and which tasks depend on guest count, venue, or local requirements.

At Wedding Checklist Free, Sofia reviews task order, lead-time assumptions, and contingency guidance while keeping the site independent of vendors and marketplaces. The schedule is a planning aid rather than a planning service, and couples should confirm contracts, license rules, and venue deadlines with the relevant local sources.
