June 2011 Brides!

[Donie Jordan]

LOVE them! What a gorgeous shade of blue!

The solemates are super obvious based on the pictures! I would never wear them with a short dress, but I'm hoping they will hep out on the grass and then I can pull them off for the rest of the evening. I'll keep you posted!

What does everyone else have left to do for their wedding?

 

I really feel like I am forgetting to do a bunch of things because I'm not yet in a panic with less than 3 months to go. What are the little details you still have to do?

Hello,

I'm a June 11th bride too.  Last week I submitted a list of songs for our dj to play, along with a do not play list.  I sent an agenda to the photographer telling him where to be the day of wedding and what shots I want.  I also made my day of wedding schedule.  I just ordered my welcome gifts, the men's ties (they already have suits) and decorations for the tables. 

 

Already done: Flights and hotel booked, Dress (being altered), Veil (on order), shoes, makeup, MOH dress, flowers, decor decided, menu chosen, dj, photographer, officiant, guest list, invitations, RSVP's (all but 10 returned), wedding favors, songs (precessional, bride walk down aisle, 1st dance), cake ordered, welcome party, rehearsal, and meeting scheduled with the coordinator when we arrive..... and honeymoon, but that is 6 months later. : ) 

 

I still need to get wedding jewelry, assemble the welcome bags with welcome note/events, schedule spa appts for day of wedding, find the table runners for the reception, make the programs, menus and escort cards. 

I hope that helps. Where are you getting married?  We're arriving the Tuesday the 7th so we can make sure everything is taken care of before our friends and family get in.  Good luck!  I can't wait for June 11th to get here already!!!

Wow I think you are ahead of me! We are getting married at Barcelo Palace in the Riviera Maya. Our travel dates are the 6th to the 13th, then we go to the Dominican for a honeymoon.

 

I have done: my dress, bridesmaid dresses (ordered), favors, most OOT bag stuff, invites, honeymoon, menu cards, pretravel brochures, flowers, hair style chosen, wedding bands purchased.

 

Still need to do: song list (using IPod), send list of pictures to photographer, book spa appointments, make a schedule for the day of the wedding, make a tag for the OOT bags, finish a few items for the OOT bags, figure out if I want more decor added to the ceremony, bridesmaid gifts, groomsmen gifts, groomsmen and groom attire, bride accessories, shopping for mexico clothes, figure out our ceremony script... I feel like I'm forgetting a lot.

 

I only have 1 RSVP back but we have 17 people booked so far.

I know I've forgotten to list a lot of the things I've done.....like the wedding bands, long done! : )  I've been planning since last September, I've had wedding on my brain for soooo long, I just want to get married already. 

 

I'm sure you'll do just fine, hopefully you have a good wedding party to help.  BTW- congrats!  If I think of anything else I'll send you a suggestion.

It's great to see some new brides here! Welcome!

I received my pre-travel brochures from Vistaprint that I plan to send out with luggage tags a few weeks before we leave. I'm posting it here in case any of you are planning on doing a similar project and need some ideas!
