Just do it! What task have you been putting off?

We need to figure out our transportation plan. Are we going to go with our free hotel shuttle + a paid shuttle, or our free hotel shuttle + Uber Events... why must transportation be so expensive?! We just need to sit down and decide so it can come off the checklist.

The cake design. We went for a tasting and decided on flavors months ago. I had seen a design I liked, but found out it would be another $100, plus FH was worried about the color staining. So I stopped thinking about it. Because I really don't want a plain white cake, but I know people don't really notice or care what it looks like so I shouldn't bother, but don't want just a plain white cake...and it spirals on and on.

Hmm, that is so tricky! At least you have some options and the ability to weigh the pros and cons!

That is a tough situation to figure out! My best advice is to look for inspiration and see what you like, and hope your baker can accommodate your style!

Trying to get FH to sit down and think about our timeline for the next 3 years.. we are planning a move to about 4 hours away once I graduate and this involves building a house (by hand). So we need to lock down which year we are getting married and which year we are building since I don't want to do both in one year. Our time, energy, and wallets will be tapped out. I want to book our venue this year! (Unless the wedding gets pushed back a year)

I’ve been putting off the flowers. I’m not doing much with them since we are having the ceremony in a garden so we really won’t need extra flowers. I just haven’t been focusing on them.

I've been putting off looking into additional transportation to the hotel shuttle for guests. I need to reach back out to my hotel contact to get more details about their shuttle but I just haven't.

I think booking your venue is a great step towards planning your wedding!

That is a great point! But, a ceremony in a garden sounds amazing!

This seems like a pretty common thing for people to be putting off!

Timelines! And dealing with the baker because he doesnt want to deal with us until we have a headcount -_-

TImelines and headcounts are definitely steps for later in the planning!

View Quoted Comment Yep. Pretty much everything else is done or scheduled right now!
Our menus tasting and tux selecting are in 2 weeks, my alterations start the same week. We just have to buy our wedding bands, and wait for the RSVPs to roll in!

Calling the insurance agent that is contracted with the venue to get our event insurance squared away. I absolutely hate talking on the phone.

Hi Alicia! I totally understand, but this is certainly an important part of planning that many people forget about!

Determining how many hotel rooms to block off! I'm stuck between doing the minimum (free!) and figuring out if I should do more (possibly expensive!) for people.

I need to figure out transportation from the ceremony to the reception.

Hmm, that is a really tough situation! Since your wedding is next summer, I think you have a good amount of time to figure out the numbers!

Hi Arkilia! This seems to be a pretty common thing people need to get done!
