Weddingbee boards

i feel like i'm pretty up to speed, but here's my list of what's still left to do...how are you other bees coming along at the 5-month mark?

1. flower girl/ringbearer attire

2. rent limo

3. book honeymoon

4. grooms wedding band

5. buy alcohol

6. meet with officiant and musicians

7. order stuff online (like the favor boxes, program fan craft sticks, etc)

8. do my crafting (i've got quite a list here)...

9. tuxes

those are the biggies i can think of- it actually sounds worse than i thought!! uh oh:)

Got to discuss a few things with the daughter....

we have some things to finalize for sure.

Decisions upon FLOWERS is the biggest.

Little details are the rest.... and it is the details that make the day "YOU"

This is what I can think of right now:

1.  Decide on appetizers

2.  Meet with officiant

3.  Plan out ceremony  (we have an outline but need to work on specifics)

4.  Gifts for wedding party (know what we want but need to find them

5.  Pick out a dress for the flowergirls (are going to do a dress shopping day when spring dresses come out in March)

6.  Have invitations printed (already designed)

7.  Jewelry for me

8.  Dress fitting (dress should be in next week)

9.  Book hair and makeup trial

10.   A few DIY projects:  decorate gift box, create guestbook, make hair flower for flowergirls

11.  Find rehearsal dinner dress

12.  Need a wrap in case the weather is cool (ceremony on beach in May)

I feel pretty good about what we’ve gotten done.  We did  a ton the week after Christmas!

Oh my goodness! I'm may 30, and i have like nothing done, it's so discouraging. I'm like just all ideas. 

We were talking yesterday about having the wedding in my parent's backyard, we're going small, casual - do it ourselves wedding. We have a lake in the backyard, so having the ceremony on the lake would be gorgeous.

But I don't even have a dress. I haven't found anything I love in my price range (but of course I fell in love with a st. pucchi dress, at 8k!!)..

We're going to make our own wedding invitations, and my brother said he'll pay for our flowers because his wife's mom works at a flower market.

I have to go and make reservations on rentals because our wedding is memorial weekend - we need to rent chairs, tables and a tent.

I have my bridal party, I have my order of ceremony - but really I don't have much...aghhh. and reading how much you all have done is overwhelming!

Oh. and I have a photographer (my sis in law is a professional photographer!!), and my grandma is making our cake.

haha.

i added a few things to my list after reading everyone elses comments:

rehearsal dinner and shower outfits!

ceremony order? is there a good place to look online for a cheat sheet? clueless on this...

book hair trial

good call ladies- i mean seriously if i listed out every single thing it would make me crazy, but some things i could totally forget to do- yikes!

I am so behind girls!!

My day is May 30.

I have to secure a location - waiting on my sister to see if we can use her church.

Flowergirl/ringbearer attire

Groomsmen/bridesmaid attire

Food

Call my grandma about cake...

Actually on second thought - let's list what I DO have done:

My dress, bridesmaids gifts, order of ceremony, officiant, bridal party, photographer

and I think that's it! Oh boy!!
