Introduction to the Itinerary Sketch by Elegant Music
Even if you don’t have a date for your wedding or special event you have ideas, and it is a good idea to put those ideas into a plan.
There are essential parts to any event. These flow in a logical sequence. You can start by writing down the larger parts of the event: Ceremony, Cocktail Hour, Reception. Each of these parts can be broken down into further detail.

The point here is to get your ideas out of your head and on paper.
Here are some advantages to start work on your itinerary right now:
- An itinerary sketch is a planning tool; a place to put ideas.
- It shows the sequence of your wedding day.
- Items and activities can be moved around as planning becomes complete or can be changed to reflect new information.
- A well-written itinerary suggests a schedule of when activities occur.
- You can take your itinerary sketch to meetings with your vendors and get more done. An event professional looking at your itinerary sketch can easily understand your wedding.
- The itinerary sketch establishes the time frame for the event professional. Now, you can talk about scope of service and aesthetic choices such as color, design, atmosphere and emotional impact.
