Aww! Don't feel so bummed about it! 8 months is still a lot of time!
I have to book someone for hair, book the hotel for the wedding night, pick out BM accessories, all kinds of stuff... I am giving myself little chunks to do at a time so I don't think about the giant list i have.
Good luck!!
its overwhelming since i have a friend who is getting married literally 2 weeks AFTER me and shes practically DONE lol one day at a time... *sigh*
good luck to you too! im still stuck on bridesmaid dresses for today though...
I just booked a videographer, and I'm in the process of trying to nail down someone for hair/makeup.
All of the other vendors are booked, but I still have a TON of DIY paper stuff to do (invitations, programs, table numbers, karaoke books, favors). The save-the-dates went out last Fall, so at least that's one DIY thing off the list!
Actually. it's only 7 months guys! Eep! Lots of time to get stuff done, but I've definitely felt the vendor rush, since i'm getting married in a popular place (San Diego by the water). I'm planning from afar, so we did a trip and got basically everything but the DIY stuff finiahed. PHEW. Getting married the weekend after you ladies, but excited to have other September brides active on the boards!! :-)
I was gonna say..isn't it 7 months??
Time seems to be flying by! I've sewed 16 napkins (of 80!) so I'm going to be busy sewing the next few weeks. It's an easy thing to have done ahead of time (and mostly I'm cursing myself for wanting to do my own napkins anyways!)
I'm also still trying to get my fiance to work on printing our invites with our computer since I know it's going to be a labour intensive project and I want to get started on it!
@walkunafraid - I'm workin on finding someone for hair/makeup too!
Ummm...my calendar marks me as 6 months and 3 weeks from the wedding folks! LESS THAN 7 MONTHS! Yikes! (according to The Knot, I have exactly 208 days left to go! Not a whole heck of a lot people!)
I have....a lot to do! We need to
That list is long enough to send me into panic mode, and that's only an Nth of the length of the list The Knot has for me! :O
7 months!! It's so scary. I swear I'm going to blink & the summer's going to be almost over! We still have sooooo much to do:
- Uhhhh... Lose 20-30lbs 
Here's my list:
Aack!
My wedding is 2 weeks after labor day and it feels really good to see I'm not so far behind in comparison. We still need to:
Since we're planning from afar, we got most of the stuff done over the holidays while we were in my home but we won't be abck there together again before the wedding except for 3 days before/after a friend's wedding so there'S really no more time to do anything in person until a week before the wedding.
LOL I can't do math!
I'm getting my catering contract and wedding layout done next weekend, signing the contract with the new photog and then... DIY until my fingers fall off and my eyeballs fall out!
QUESTION: When did you guys send/when will you send STDs?
@LaborofLove-We didn't do STD's. We're just sending our invites out a little early. It seems like I still have a lot to do! We don't even have an officiant yet! Eek!
We don't have an officiant yet either, but we think my parents' pastor is going to do it... well, I hope so anyways!
@Labor-we asked someone FI was close too. And he refused on a basis that we are not a part of his church (even though he helped FI a lot when he was younger). So we have very few options at the moment.
Oh wow, that's terrible.
We sent out our STDs at the beginning of November. We figured since it's a Labor Day wedding it's never too early to let people know.
We sent our STDs a few weeks ago - but keep in mind that my husband (we're legally married already) is English, and although we are having a separate reception there, we do have friends who are planning on coming to the US one. We wanted to give them plenty of time to make plans!
We really haven't done anything else, though, except booked a venue. Partly because our wedding will be extremely DIY (ie, we're making our own food) and partly because we've been too busy applying for jobs and dealing with immigration paperwork. We should probably start looking for a photographer soon, though.

Ahh! I'm so stoked!
What are you working on right now?
I'm doing STDs, some little wedding decor and working out to buy the dress soon. I am also ordering shoes (no luck so far!) and assembling my veil this month, probably!
Yay!
