I've decided to put together a generic list of everything I can think of that needs to be done in the planning of a wedding. Everyone's wedding is different and there might be some things I've missed either because I've forgotten them or simply they weren't relevant to us.
The list is in an order that worked for us, again this might not work for you, so play around with it to make it work. I hope it's helpful!
