    April 27 here. Coaching the last 5 of 8 bridesmaids through mismatched dresses. Just got everything settled with the florist which took ages since I’m super particular about flowers. After the holidays I’ll order the handful of small decor items I want. We are getting ready to book honeymoon to the Caribbean using points. And oh, I should probably get a dress!

    Yes! I think we've narrowed it down to the Bahamas, Cancun/ Rivera. I really wanted to go to Italy but after all the wedding I think we both just want to relax and not really sight see, lol.

    I was planning to get an off the rack one or a second hand one. The bridal salon thing (and the price tag) isn’t really me.

    Eeek!! 4 months and I feel crazy lol. Was feeling ahead, now I feel behind. Definitely pausing to enjoy my holidays. Already have my dress and alteration appt is end of January. Venue booked is food and drinks so done. I have to order my invitations and find a make up artist. Cake will be ordered end of February. Photographer booked. I need to settle on the officiant and book. Flowers are minimal, just need my bouquet and altar items. Oh and I think I found the host hotel, will decide this week. Happy planning ladies

    I'm getting mine probably at least 30 days before the wedding. My officiant can also issue it for a price so I don't know if I'm using him for the license or if we will go to the county register. I'm leaning towards probably just going to the register to save money.

    April 12th here!!!! I remember when this was 11 months away 😩 Time is moving soooo fast! Our WP assures us that we are ahead of schedule....most days I don’t feel that way at all!! I think we have all vendors booked and are just paying them off as we go. Big thing is fashion.....no one has gotten their fashion except me!!! 😩 So at the very least I’ll be cute! 😂 We ordered two dresses for my BM but neither of them worked because they weren’t deep wine enough. So now we’ve gone with a seamstress.....waiting to see how this pans out. If it doesn’t I may have to change that color and order the dresses in a color that we know we can get. If this ends up happening it will totally throw me for a loop!

    You can definitely find some good options. I don't know how cool your consignment stores are there. We have vintage stores that have some cool options.

    Bridesmaid dresses are stressing me out and the groomsmen have not gotten fitted yet.

    April 27th is our wedding date. I feel like I have everything under control but will have to buckle down come January. If anyone is still needing Bridesmaids dresses I loved Azazie (online bridesmaids dresses)! They are great quality and prices. Good luck to everyone!!
