10-10-2020 here! We are from Sapulpa Oklahoma but getting married in Tahlequah on a beautiful ranch. The venue is the legacy at MK Ranch and we are also staying in their gorgeous farmhouse on the property. We will be having homemade barbecue made by my fiancés mother. We went with all outside vendors and it was so much cheaper! We bundled our DJ and photographer and saves so much money. Their portfolio is gorgeous and have amazing reviews. My grandfather is even our security so we don’t have that expense. He is an armed security guard and was more than Happy to help us out on our big day! We don’t really have one set theme but are just decorating with things that we love. Our cake topper will be Jack and Sally from the nightmare before Christmas and the grooms cake is going to be a Glock. Or a gaming controller he has not decided yet lol. My stepmother is a chef and is making our cakes for us. Our family has been amazing in helping the process. We have been together for seven years so we are very excited for the best big day to celebrate our time together and the many more years to come! And 10-10-2020 is the easiest date to remember so neither of us will have an excuse to forget!
10/10/2020 bride here in ft worth Texas! Agree to the comment above, where is everyone at in the planning process? I have pretty much all my vendors picked out except for, DJ, Catering, flowers and hair. Plus I have lots of little things to buy!!
I'm having an outdoor wedding in Atlanta and I am also a nervous wreck about it, I have a tent and a rain plan! September/October are the most popular wedding months here because it's before the rainy season and not too hot.

We've got most of the big stuff handled. I think the biggest thing I'm working on now is limo. And honestly we could probably get by with a Lyft lux or uber black since we're not having a wedding party. I'm DIYing a ton, so I'm up to my eyeballs in that right now. Getting ready to open up the Save the Date group on FB sometime this month.
My fiancé and I chose this date back in March of 2017, because I am graduating in May of 2020 and we wanted to make sure I finished and got Nursing School out of the way! Also how cool is the date, I mean seriously. Plus fall is just an incredible time to get married. Things are all finally coming together though, and I'm so excited. We are having ours in Massachusetts (from CT). And are having a vintage/industrial kind of look as it's in a refurbed factory on the water. I am DIY-ing my flowers and keeping it simple with some pampas grass and other dried stems.
Love the Gatsby mentions too, that's what I want to do for the Bachelorette! Such a fun theme!
So far we have our venue, caterer for dinner and apps, bar, DJ, photographer, videographer, a hotel room block, hair and the attire picked out. I am doing the flowers/decor and makeup myself but I still need to figure out favors, my and my bridesmaid's accessories, flower girl and ring bearer attire and desserts!

I think we're aiming for mid-July, with mid-August RSVP deadline. We have to have numbers to our venue/caterer on September 1. That'll give me a couple weeks to chase RSVPs
We have: venue, photographer, dj, dinner, desserts, dress, attendants' attire, suit, officiant, hotel blocks, invitations, and a plan for DIY flowers and centerpieces. Currently working on a day-of timeline & floorplan and picking out rings! I'd like to have the invitations sent out in June so people have a good 8 weeks to RSVP.
Invitation question - we're not sure if we want to do online only RSVPs or include a reply card. It's much cheaper to do online only, but we don't want to have people struggling to RSVP either.
Any of my fellow 10/10/20 brides nervous about this virus affecting your wedding? Anything you're doing, or not doing because of it? I am getting a little nervous, just because we have already spent a lot of money on this wedding!
