DIY Wedding Playbook

Plan Your Wedding Your Way

Not every couple wants (or needs) a full-service wedding planner — but every couple deserves clear guidance, confidence, and calm while planning their wedding.

That’s exactly why we created the DIY Wedding Playbook.

Built by Brian & Kristen of Vancouver Officiant, this free online resource is designed to help couples plan a meaningful, intentional wedding — without overwhelm, pressure, or unnecessary expense.

Whether you’re planning an intimate ceremony, a backyard celebration, or a thoughtfully scaled wedding day, the DIY Wedding Playbook gives you the tools to make informed decisions — your way.

What Is the DIY Wedding Playbook?

The DIY Wedding Playbook is a step-by-step online planning guide that walks you through the most important elements of your wedding — from big-picture decisions to practical details.

Inside, you’ll find guidance on:

Choosing the right venue (and why it matters most)

Understanding wedding timelines & priorities

Navigating legal requirements in British Columbia

Budget-conscious planning tips

Ceremony-first thinking (because the ceremony sets the tone)

How to plan confidently — even without a planner

It’s not about doing everything yourself — it’s about knowing what matters, when it matters, and where to focus your energy.

Who Is This For?

The DIY Wedding Playbook is perfect for couples who:

Want to be intentional with their wedding budget

Are planning without a full-service planner

Feel overwhelmed by conflicting wedding advice

Want clarity without pressure or sales tactics

Believe the ceremony should feel personal and meaningful

If you’ve ever thought “There has to be a simpler way to plan this” — you’re in the right place.
