What Is a Wedding Countdown Timer?

A wedding countdown timer is a physical or digital clock or calendar that tells its user how many days (and sometimes minutes!) are left until they walk down the aisle. These tools help nearlyweds get excited for their wedding, stay on track with their wedding planning checklist and add a bit of decor to a home, office or phone screen.

Wedding countdown timers can be a digital app on a phone or a tangible option. Physical countdown timers can be a sports-like countdown clock, a cute wood block option you change every day, or even a chalk or dry-erase board that you write on.
