I just wanted to share with you ladies something I've been using to keep track of all my planning needs. It's Microsoft Office OneNote. FI first introducted me to it because he was using it for classes - you can make multiple different "notebooks" (I have a school one as well as my wedding one) and within each notebook are tabs-mine are labeled things like Vendors, Financial Information, Decorations, Honeymoon, etc. Then within each tab you can have separate pages - for example in my Vendors tab I have separate pages for organizing information on each type of vendor - one for photographers, one for the bakery, one for the dj, etc.
You can copy paste pictures in from anywhere, you can write in it, make charts and graphs, and everything (text, charts, pictures) is put in its own little "box", which is sort of like when you put a picture in a word document - you can move the box around on the page or copy paste it to another page, make it larger or smaller, w/e.
I know I sound like a commercial but I'm obsessed with this program and I never close it out on my computer and its such a great way to organize information. I have one of those big binders, but I'm not going to print out each picture of something I like online to add to my physical binder, and this way I can save it all together! I just wanted to tell you guys because its really helped me a lot with everything and I pretty much tell everyone about it!! Anyway, if you have it on your computer (I didn't know I did until I looked around for it when FI told me I probably did have it), give it a try! Its awesome!
