I am getting married on March 28, 2020. I have gotten my wedding dress, picked out my venue, got my photographer and dj, and found accommodations for my guests. I also got my bridesmaid gifts and am trying to figure out what i should do for centerpieces and decorations (I'm looking for the rustic chic look). I start a new job in mid august so i want to get most of the planning and crafts done before i start so i'm not stressing out about too many things! What have you all done?

    That's how I feel too! I want to get everything pretty much done by mid August because I am starting a new job. What are your wedding colors?

    Thank you! It actually is much cheaper then floral centerpieces (which is what I'm going for!) but still looks great!

    They are pastels with rose gold and a splash of burgundy. I just feel like the end of the year has so much happening that to worry about planning a wedding would be so stressful and that is something I am trying to avoid.

    I LOVE rose gold! My E ring is two-toned with rose gold and white gold! I also feel like weddings aren't fun when you're stressed so do everything in ones power to not be hah Smiley smile

    Wow! Awesome job! I am glad to see that I am not the only one that likes to get stuff done quick! Smiley smile So far I have my venue, photographer, videographer, caterer, decorator, officiant, florist, invitations, my dress, my bridesmaids dresses, my bridesmaids gifts,my cake is booked, DJ, ceremony musicians, my favors are on the way, and now I am focusing on the guys. It has been exhausting but I am taking sometime to rest. Nice part is guys are easy! Smiley laugh

    Great! We've got our venue, photographer, officiant, photo booth, party bus, DJ, cakes, bridesmaid gifts, and just met with our caterer Monday. Engagement photos in the next 2 weeks. Save the Dates getting ordered ASAP and will be sent out mid-July.
    I've got my dress on order, picked out bridesmaid dresses, and found the flowers I want on etsy.
    Going to have to go to the rental store soon. And then working on our DIY stuff as soon as I get moved into our new house. (Centerpieces, cake toppers)

    Haha. No worries! I've been engaged for about 3 months. And we were buying a house. So house buying stress distracted me from wedding stress, and wedding stress distracted me from house buying stress.
    Plus I start a second temporary full-time job and pick up overtime at my regular full-time job in August. So I'm trying to knock as much out as soon as possible.

    Wow I am so impressed with how much you have accomplished thus far!!! Girl, you are working it! Within the first three months or so I got my dress, booked venue, dj/photobooth and started bridesmaids gifts. I took a big break after getting those things done because I just felt like it was wedding overload and wanted to focus on myself. So do not forget to take breaks for your own sanity too Smiley smile
    Good luck with everything , sounds like you got it handled!

    Did you get stressed out finding a venue 20 weeks out or was it an easy venue to find and lock down? What does your dress look like? What is your theme? sorry for a lot of questions; I just have wedding on the brain so i love talking to people who are in the same boat as me haha Smiley smile

    I was stressed because we were supposed to have it locked down back in March, but it took his brother until to days ago to get it done. You have to live in the city where it's located to rent it, we don't he does. that got to me. No dress yet, going to David's bridal once I hear from the two people going with me. It's in fall, so a rustic fall theme
