Does Everything Move This Fast?

Keyona, on May 13, 2019 at 8:48 AM Posted in Planning 0 15

Just a general question, I am about 10 months out from my wedding date in March of 2020. I am also kinda fully planned at this point besides a florist -- its insane i know. I just have minor things besides that to get done but it seems like everything is going to move so fast. Come September my dress will be coming in and per my real estate mentor we should start looking for a home in October / November.


Just wondering if anyone else felt things just picked up and their wedding was here before they knew it. Please share you experience weather it went fast or slow for you. I just feel come September my life will be on high speed but maybe not since I have completed a lot already Smiley smile lol

    There's going to be periods where it feels like it is dragging and then times when you're wondering where the time went. Our wedding is exactly 5 months away and I feel like it's slow right now. But once we start getting closer, I'll be begging for time to slow down. Enjoy the down time when you can.

    We have a 3 year engagement and are down to our last year (well a little over a year)! We started booking everything within months of being engaged and now that we only have a year left I feel like that time flew by! We are planning on having everything done by the end of the year ( except alterations and those kind of things). Congrats! and good luck with everything!

    OMG congrats - It's so crazy having everything planned so early but us as well. We plan to have everything besides minor details paid by the end of the year so next year is smooth sailing. But with the addition of house shopping I am like OMG this will be here before I realize.

    Congrats 2020 Sister!

    I'm also March 2020!! We're just hustling now - trying to save money & not live the luxurious life! I'm sure it'll eventually pick up!

    Way to go for being on point! You got this!!!

    It's good you are planning in advance. My 8 months out, we had every single vendor booked, invites done, save the dates sent out, etc. For me, being 8 months out to 4 months out moved SO SLOW. Then after that, it has moved quickly.

    That's funny I think that's how I am feeling - its so slow but I am sure come Oct with home shopping and getting closer it will pick up. And finding a florist feels like the hardest challenge yet Smiley sad I think I give up once a month in my search lol

    I'm sorry! That was one of our first vendors. Caterer and baker and officiant were really hard for us. I just focused on wedding wire & the knot reviews!

    That just means you're super organized! Smiley laugh

    We're 6 months away and basically had everything lined up a month ago. We're going to enjoy our summer and pay towards balances then worry about final decisions in the fall.

    That's exactly what I was trying to get too I don't want to stress all year. Rather have the knowledge to what I need to pay for and basically by next year only have minor expenses to cover.

    You will hit a period probably this summer where you don’t do anything. It will be a nice break. It will pick back up at the 60 day mark.

    Its so crazy to enjoy the break but at the same time you just want it come Smiley smile I think that's where I am currently its a slow period after being intense the last few months and I'm like March is so far away it feels.
