Sorry I can't help you with this.

 

My to do list is as follows:

Some other things that might apply to you:

OOT bags

Organize what YOU want to do during your stay (something I didn't realize I had yet to do!)

I'll keep thinking...I need ideas too!

Weekend before:

get bikini area, legs and eyebrows waxed

call and confirm car rental

 

 

i'm sure there's more, i just cant' think of them right now!

I think there was a thread like this a couple months ago, but I can't seem to find it. Anyway- this was my list 2 months ago, and I just updated it today (thanks for the reminder!). It's kinda funny to see what I got done and what I didn't since February. I don't know if maybe something on my old list will remind you of something you need to do...

 

To do list

• LOSE 20 POUNDS!!! lol does 5 count?
• Book flight done (last week- yikes!)

It doesn't seem like I have that much to do, yet why do I feel like I'm missing so much and will freak out two days before I leave? lol

Thanks Sarah that was a good list. I feel totally stressed, like I am going to forget something. I feel the same, like theres not that much more to get done, but yet I know I am going to freak out before we leave. I cant believe how fast this has come, its so exciting, yet scary!

Sarah

This is stressful.. let's see:

 

Finish fan decorations..

Decorate OOT

Print tags for favor boxes (if I buy them), OOTs, fans, flip flops, parasols..

Decorate torches.

Send stuff to cancun.

Buy liquor.

My Dress (the guy hasn't even started.. yes I'm freaking out)

My shoes (I'm having them custom made and the girl is starting in may)

Have my highlights done (a week before leaving)

Buy toasting flutes and knife for the cake..

Order rings.

 

Not wedding related but I have to start taking vitamins for when I get pregnant..

Go to the gyn to have BC prescription.

 

Ok that's all I can remember

Anny, I cannot tell if you are trying to have a honeymoon baby... or not! Just kidding!

Sarah, I am 9 months away from my wedding but looking through the DW book I have, here are the suggestions for 3 to 6 weeks before:

Arrange other weekend events
Send pre-wedding packet to guests
Finalize ceremony
Plan welcome bags
Get prescriptions filled
Buy attendant gifts
Shop for honeymoon attire
Make hair and beauty appointments

I'd love a honeymoon baby but I have to take BC to change my cycle or el I'd get my period a day before my wedding
I'm super regular and I'd have it on July 6th so I have to do something..

I will stop taking BC after the wedding so I hope I get preggo soon

I sooo want a honeymoom baby too, but the whole period thing is going to make me wait until after the wedding =(

 

One thing on my list is go to the dentist for a cleaning and start my at home teeth whitening...
