So if you happen to use a planner for the event, then it is a recommended to write it at the beginning of the planner.

Key Contacts
You need to have the listings of the key contacts like the caterer and the decorator. You may keep their business card with you, but it will be such a hassle to find out the one you require and sort out. But if you use a planner, you can keep all the contacts in the same place, which saves you a lot of your precious time.

Attendees
This is the list of people who have RSVP’d at the event. In a planner, you can write down their whole list. Who is bringing whom? Who is a veg, and who is a non-veg? Is there anyone who is bringing a pet? You see, you can keep everything organized when you use a planner.

Contracts
When you are planning an event, you will need to have a lot of contracts, caterer contract, lighting contract, auditorium contract. If you keep them on a same place and on the same category, you will be glad with yourself after seeing how much of the time you have bought for yourself by keeping them in the planner.

Event-Order

Others
