Two On Sale: The Rehearsal Dinner Planner & The Wedding Checklist (Through Wednesday!)

Posted on September 24, 2026 by joyfulmother

The short version: everything’s 20% off through Wednesday, September 30 — the discount applies automatically at checkout, no code needed.

If you’ve been eyeing one of these and telling yourself you’ll grab it “once things calm down,” I have some good news and some less-good news. The less-good news: things are not calming down until the ceremony’s over, and probably not even then. The good news: right now is a genuinely great time to stop waiting. The Rehearsal Dinner Planner and the Complete Planning Checklist are both 20% off through Wednesday, September 30, and the discount shows up automatically at checkout — no code to dig for, no promo box to squint at on your phone while you’re standing in the grocery store line.

What’s on Sale

Both of these were built to solve a specific headache — one for the rehearsal dinner, one for the whole wedding — and both are on sale together this week.

1. Rehearsal Dinner Planner for Mother of the Groom

Hosting (or co-hosting) the rehearsal dinner comes with its own to-do list, and it’s easy to underestimate how many moving pieces it actually has. This planner walks you through the guest list, the timeline for the evening, who’s toasting and in what order, seating, and all the small logistics that tend to get forgotten until three days before. It’s built specifically for the Mother of the Groom role, so you’re not stuck adapting a generic template written for someone planning the entire wedding.

2. The Complete Planning Checklist

This is the one to open the second you find out the wedding date. It covers the full arc of wedding planning for a Mother of the Groom, from the earliest engagement conversations through the wedding day itself, so you always know what’s next instead of wondering what you might be missing. It’s less about handing you extra homework and more about giving you permission to stop mentally re-checking your own memory every night.

Why These Two, Why Now

Here’s the thing about wedding planning stress: it rarely comes from having too much to do. It comes from not being sure you’ve thought of everything. That’s a different problem, and it’s the one both the planner and the checklist solve. A checklist doesn’t shrink the wedding — it shrinks the part of your brain devoted to worrying about the wedding, which frees you up to actually enjoy the parts you’re supposed to enjoy.

Couples are also giving themselves more lead time than ever to plan, according to The Knot’s research on planning timelines, which is good news for you. A little extra runway means a little extra time to get organized instead of scrambling in the final weeks. And if you still need to pin down the order of events for the rehearsal dinner itself, our guide to building a rehearsal dinner timeline pairs well with the planner above.

A good checklist doesn’t make the wedding smaller. It makes your role in it lighter — in the best way.

Either one of these will genuinely make your week easier, and having both on hand means you’re covered from the engagement announcement all the way through the toasts. The sale runs through Wednesday, September 30, so there’s no need to decide this second — just don’t let it slip past you the way that RSVP deadline almost did.

Grab one (or both) before Wednesday.
