If April showers bring May Flowers and June Weddings, then its time for many to finalize their wedding plans.

Whether you are just weeks away or still a year off from your wedding date, plan on checking the Internet for matrimonial advice. Probably the best place to get advice is The Knot at for everything from popping-the-question to the honeymoon.

Begin with the Count Down Calendar to create your to-do list for the big day. This free online list works with a username and password you supply so you can come back later and it will remember what preferences you have entered. The Count Down Calendar keeps you updated with what you still have to do and what is most important to deal with this week. Should you worry about catering arrangements more than invitations this week? Just check the calendar.

One of the first things your calendar will advise is to plan a budget for the wedding. Using the Big Day Budgeter at The Knot will help you estimate all your expenses from small to huge and gives you plenty of "what if" tries to determine what will need to be cut, decreased or maybe expanded.

Ladies looking for the perfect gown will love searching the 6000 gowns listed on this site. Under Gown Search, you can search by such details as type of gown, designer, train length, size availability, price range and much more.

For the guys, check the Grooms and Guys section for advice from "Bow Ties for Dummies" to tips on saving on wedding ring diamonds. This area is a plethora of useful information and tidbits.

If you want to avoid duplicate or useless gifts, get some ideas from the Gifts and Registries section. There are plenty of articles on mundane, but necessary gifts to unique, but fun presents.

For the wed couple, to round out the Web site, The Knot has included a section on where and how to plan your honeymoon and even "newlywed living made most romantic and fun" under the title, The Nest.

Even if you are not the bride or groom, this site has tips on how to be a good Best Man or Made of Honor and the social graces of dividing the cost of the wedding between the in-laws. Throw in more information on how to throw a baby shower or bachelor party, and it all seems to come together.

With all that is here, The Knot is quite likely the most comprehensive source for wedding advice anywhere. Any couple tying the knot would be wise to read it carefully, and well before the Big Day.
