I need a planner system and am completely overwhelmed by my choices. Advice?

I've had a million daytimers and calendars. I've tried bullet journaling but it didn't stick for me, although I want to add some BJ style elements to my routine for managing one-off tasks. I've used the Midori Traveler's Notebook setup but didn't love it because it was unwieldy.

I have a couple of different jobs (starting a new one next week) and am planning a wedding right now so keeping tasks organized is essential. I have been looking into a Filofax system. My mom swore by Franklin Covey back in the day. I've spent entirely too much time perseverating on which planner system to get. I use iCal on my phone but I want a redundant paper system, as well. I miss too many appointments and don't have a full view of everything.

I know I need something with a month and daily view and a planner that has pockets and nooks and crannies to hold things. It should be a ring binder so I can move tabs around. I don't decorate a planner like a scrapbook and want something more utilitarian. Any thoughts on what's worked for you?
