Wedding countdown

Pick a date to see how many days are left.

Why count down to a wedding

A wedding is planned for months, and most of the to-dos hang on how much time is left: invitations, fittings, the menu, the music, the last details in the final week.

A countdown turns that time into something you can see, and the excitement grows with every day that falls away. Guests can keep one too, so the date never slips.

Make the wait part of the fun

  • Work back from the date: send invitations about two to three months ahead.
  • Give each month before the wedding one big task, and tick it off.
  • Plan a date night for the week before, just for the two of you.
  • Share the countdown with your wedding party, so everyone knows what’s next.

Set up your countdown in Waitday

Wedding countdown: questions answered

How many days until my wedding?

Enter the wedding date in the calculator above to see the number of days from today. Waitday keeps that count on your home screen and updates it every day.

When should I start a wedding countdown?

As soon as you have a date. Most couples plan for 12 to 18 months, and a countdown helps pace the to-dos along the way.

Can I count down to our anniversary too?

Yes. After the wedding, set the countdown to repeat every year and it counts down to each anniversary.
