Online wedding planning tools

Well, i proposed to my beloved OH this weekend and we've finally realised that now means we have to plan a wedding.

I was hoping to compile a list of online tools / web 2.0 sites that we could use to keep things organised and planned.

Can people suggest either wedding specific or non-specific tools, such as facebook/flickr/google tools that would be useful. A project planner would be of great benefit also. I've just signed up to basecamp and i'll be taking a look at it soon.

Thanks!

    In the modern world women also propose but should you be a little old fashoned and are the bloke just leave it to the woman. make sure you have the date writen down and a reminder set maybe on your phone or somthing so you turn up thats all you need to do.

    I don't think there are any online tools that would help, maybe somthing like outlook could help for sheduling and reminders when things need to be done. I wuld still leave it up to the woman they can "multitask" apparently doing 10 jobs where we are only able to remember to turn up. Whe will remember everything and you won't need to know anything other than the date, place and time.
    Good luck
  • Well thats wonderful, but i proposed and i'm quite old fashioned in that respect.

    A phone reminder? Just to make sure i turn up on the right day - genius!

    Any more sensible advice? basecamp looks good, ideally i'd like an online project management tool like MS project.. wonder if it exists

    I made our own website using weddingpath which was free, it was an alternative to including a huge list of info with the invites. I also registered on hitched.co.uk and for organising I used old fashioned pen and paper.

    Congraulations by the way !

    Well if you don't turn up I am sure someone will be really pee'ed off at you.
  • Thanks for the info, that will come in useful! A great site we've been using recently is https://www.ukbride.co.uk - there are lots of free planning tools on here to use, the table planner is especially handy!! :beer:
