Few things will wreck your peace of mind more than having too many Incompletes -- those half-done jobs that are piling up all around you. You may have started on your guest list, but that's sitting around waiting to be finished, almost sucking the air out of the room. Especially with big jobs like that, it really does create an energy drain.

It feels great to check things off of your To-Do list. You get a sense of accomplishment, a sigh of relief, and you feel like you have a handle on your wedding plans when there aren't too many open issues taking up space in your mind. If you get it done, you don't have to think about it anymore.

So stop what you're doing right now and make a list of all the wedding tasks that are partially-done, and then list out what you need to do to check each one as Done. The little steps you need to take might not be fun - such as calling your future in-laws for their guest list -- but they lead to great happiness and relief. The more Incompletes you can tackle, the greater your peace of mind.

Now if you're waiting for others to deliver info or complete a task they said they'd take on, you're perfectly within your rights to nudge them with a friendly e-mail: "Hey, I know I said you could have until the end of the month to send in your size card, but I hit a time crunch in my schedule, so could you please send it by Friday? Thanks!" You've been polite, so it shouldn't be a problem for that bridesmaid to get her numbers to you. Now of course, you want to give her a week, not say 'tomorrow,' but the simple e-mail you sent can clear that task off your list and out of your mind for good. Done!

Set a day for your Incompletes, and make sure it's a day that's good for the groom's full attention, too. Then rip through that list of little To-Do's and celebrate with a great dinner out!
