August 2013 brides/grooms: What's on your to-do list?

Brittany, on July 7, 2013 at 4:22 PM Posted in Planning 0 10

We're almost there! Over the last two weeks, I've met with the DJ, had my first dress fitting, decided on a rose ceremony as an alternative to the unity candle, met with our ceremony pianist, and chosen someone to make the cake. This week, I have to meet with said cake baker, make a day-of timeline, send the remainder of the invitations out (waiting to get addresses from FMIL), and prepare for my bridal shower, which is this Saturday! Smiley winking

What wedding plans do you have to do this week??

    I've started receiving my RSVPs and because we are having a sit down with 3 choices I have to start pulling together how we are going to make sure that people get what theya re ordering. Also I have to finalize my centerpiece designs and finalize with all of my venders but everything is pretty much on point. AND AM SO EXCIED!!!

    Have sent out all the invites, waiting for RSVP's (we already have some!!), my mom is collecting those, so I need to get her the list of people and a way to keep track of who's ordering what. right now it's mostly random things I need to order online.. custom M & Ms, bridal party gifts, card box. also need to double check our music stuff and go over our ceremony with FH, schedule our final appointments the last weekend in July (walk through, final caterer meeting, hair and makeup trial, getting our marriage license).

    Getting sooo close, 47 days to go!

    I was super productive today. Bouts, escort cards, banners, thank you sign, and square knots for napkin rings are complete. My hair/make up trial is next Sunday, and my final dress fitting and DJ meeting are next week.

    I've received 89 RSVPs out of 170 total invited guests. 82 accepts and 7 declines. The due date is August 1st, so we'll see how my number looks then!

    I'm feeling really calm. No anxiety yet; just really excited for that day to be here.

    We are working on our dj form of song list.

    We need to track down our people that have not rsvped yet.

    We now are working on the seating chart and all the diy projects such as escort cards, card box, table numbers, and the bouquet.
