if something goes wrong, take a deep breath and calm down
Learn to delegate! Do not try to be superwoman and do everything alone.

Great advice! I have been married almost 2 years now and sometimes people think that because they have known you for a lifetime, they need to put their 2cents worth in your wedding. If you have YOUR idea of YOUR fairytale wedding, discuss that with your future husband and see if that is within your budget.
In regards to choosing a date, the best place to start is wherever you are thinking of getting married. Depending on your church/place of worship they may have a 6 month-1 year waiting period for counseling or whatever.
I guess with any source of information be it GC or the knot you have to use your best judgment. I was a knottie and found some good information that I was able to use (such as do it yourself stuff) and a lot of useless information.
