My goodness! You are sooo far ahead of me lol
Done-
Ordered invites (should have them the first week in may)
Bought dress and TTD Dress
Reserved Location
Hired a DJ
Hired a Photographer
Picked colors
I have NO idea how many people will be there so I can't to OOT bags yet. My BM's can't get together until June to do dress shopping. So I made my RSVP June 15th so Hopefully by then I will have a semi final head count and the BM dresses done. We will see.

When are you doing that? Remember you will need about a month or two for alterations

Hello fellow September brides!
This is what I have so far:
Location
My dress and shoes
Photographer
Videographer
STD's have been sent
Starting on invitations this weekend
Some centerpieces
Hundreds of starfish (besides using them for invitations, no clue what else I'm doing with them!)
OOT bags plus some fillers (shell bottle openers, personalized margarita mixes, personalized mints, travel-sized sunblocks)
flower clip for hair
Confirmed appt for hair, nails, and makeup at spa
Raffia fans for ceremony plus tags that I'm adding to them
Still Need:
Get fitted for a customized bra (I haven't been able to find one that will work w/ my size and dress style)
Order personalized stamps
Look for padded envelopes for invitations
Look for DJ (I'm not even sure if I can bring an outside DJ) and finalize song choices
Find bridesmaid's dresses/groomsmen outfits and gifts
Look for FI's suit
Buy more OOT bag fillers (not sure what else to get)
Gifts for parents
Finalize flower choices/centerpieces
Decide on hair/makeup
Decide on cake style
Dress alterations
Create slideshow for reception
Finalize itinerary/excursions
OK, I'm sure I'm missing a lot more but I began to stress myself out so I'm going to stop typing now!  | |
