Here’s what i’ve done so far. My crazy work schedule (im a nurse) has distracted me a bit so hoping to get back to things asap!
- Venue, Ceremony Site
- Caterer
- Photographer (This was easy bc it’s in the family)
- DJ
- Videographer (FI hated this idea bc he thought it was unnecessary but I have such bad long term memory that I vouched for this ;))
- Florist
- Officiant
- Wedding Dress 😀
- Picked out bridal party but no BM’s dresses yet….
- Oh and I know I’m way ahead at this but I booked my hair and makeup person too.
Hoping to get e-pics done by end of summer/fall. Meeting with travel agency to discuss honeymoon pricing, Scouting limo prices as well as looking at bm dresses are next on agenda. whew! lots of things to get done

@kcoconut:
Date twin! Booking the groom is always good haha 😉 and don’t worry. I haven’t booked anything since I posted on here. I’m in a little bit of a lull.

@Karissa: That’s my wedding date, too! We just went with what our anniversary was so that we didn’t have to learn a new date. We became an official couple on 07.07.07! 
I have everything booked and ordered. I am now just working on putting the rest of my projects together. I have all the supplies, wording etc for them though.

@Karissa: I typed in July 2012 wedding, came across your post and almost thought that I HAD WRITTEN IT. That was SO weird. My wedding is July 7th too! I feel pretty accomplished… I THINK I have created my own wedding invite using pocket cards, have my DJ, videographer, photo booth, venue for ceremony and reception, ya da ya da…. STILL HAVE a LOT to do though! I hope all of your planning is going well and you feel even more accomplished!!
Best wishes
