I have amanaged to do most of my planning for my dw at ROR in about the same amount of time...this forum was super helpful! Good luck! If I can help just let me know!

No silly, you're not crazy at all. Tons of brides plan weddings in less than a month even. that's the best thing about DW's they can either be planned thoroughly or just a few nice touches but come out to be some of the most gorgeous weddings EVER

It looks like wedding ceremony availability is a little bit limited there in April. Did you already put in a request for a wedding date and time? If not were you looking at a specific time frame within the month of April? Oh and if you're not stuck on April I see some more availability in early May there is even a coveted Friday 4pm time slot open:)

Yes, I have my wedding booked for April 9th at 4pm! I am super excited!! But started to freak out about all the details! I know everyone says that you plan most details when you get down there, but I guess that is just not something I'm used to.

Do I need to book the reception dinner soon??

I haven't even been in contact with the WC!?!?!?!

Hi Sarah and welcome to the forum! Don't worry, you can pull it off by April. My hubby & I got married within a few months too and it was fabulous.

Congratulations and welcome to the forum! I would say the biggest thing is picking a resort (one that has a onsite WC) that will make it easier on you. Actually I have heard from a few people that have had DW and most of the planning was when they got to the resort...

 

My stepmom planned their wedding at home (nice one) in 1 month so you can do it!
