I just wanted to check in with the brides; how's everything going? How's the checklist looking??
Well, I have to say, I don't feel like I've done much since my last post on February 3rd.
Stuff I've Checked Off the List:
- Sent STD's
- Sent Invitations
- Booked trip and honeymoon
- Did bpics, created album... awaiting wedding day to give to him!
- Finalized menu for reception
- Got my dress (and love it!)
- Booked hair/makeup
- Booked photographer
- Bridesmaid dresses ordered
- Purchased Aaron's/GM's shirts
- Booked Flights
- Wedding band purchased
- Seating chart
- Centerpieces
- Rehearsal dinner/menu confirmed with Mariana
- small things like a cake topper, starfish for my bouquet
- Guestbook (I found one that matches the invitation mulberry paper I used!)
Things that have a *partial* checkmark (mostly so I can make myself feel better about this list!)
- OOT bags. I'd like to do welcome letters, a map, etc. I'm feeling a bit worn out of DIY projects, so we'll see what happens with this.
- Playlists for reception and welcome dinner. This is on my "urgent" list!
Things Awaiting a Checkmark:
- Create welcome dinner slideshow
- Small DIY projects like: letters for OOT bags, programs (? not sure if I'm going to do them), menu cards
- Write up ceremony/readings. My uncle will be helping me with this since he is performing the ceremony
- Write my vows
- Get Aaron's ring engraved
With about a month to go before we leave, I'm not sure if some of the small things will get ditched or not. Somehow, I'm not really stressed about anything... with the exception of writing my vows. Aaron is already done writing his, and I seem to be having writers block. Other than that, I feel like all the big, important stuff is done and taken care of. If I don't have menu cards, I'm not going to get upset over it!!
Edited to Add: Ok, seriously, I only did TWO things in one month?!!!! lol. In my defense, I did a lot of honeymoon planning!!
