October Brides 2019

Cel, on June 3, 2019 at 11:10 AM Posted in Planning 1 37
It just hit me that its 4 months away. I was talking with my wedding coordinator/decorator on yesterday about all the small things I need to do. I got a little overwhelmed but I know everything will come together. So October brides what else do you have left to do,?

    Oh man, I just realized this recently too! Time is flying, it is crazy! I still have to get my bakery and florist (which is really stressing me out!), get/send out invitations, get my earrings and shoes (I know what I am getting, just need to order), and get together my seating charts. A few other small things too. Ugh!!! It'll all be worth it though Smiley smile

    Same here - time is flying! All the big stuff is booked for us, but we still have a ton of little things, despite my FH always thinks we're pretty much done haha. We need to book transportation (at least a ride home from the venue), I need to finish up a floral barrel topper along with boutonnieres and corsages, we need to gather materials for centerpieces, and I need to buy a few things like a veil, a cake servers, card box, etc. I know we still have a quarter of a year, but it still feels like crunch time!

    So crazy and overwhelming! Haha thankfully I’m at the very end of October so I have a little more time (every day counts 😂) we have our big things booked and details are starting to come together. Next steps are finalizing everything that needs to go on the invites, ordering those, boutonnières, putting together faux bouquets, and probably still like 20 other things. But there’s definitely stuff that I can’t even start yet until other stuff happens.

    I had a mini heart attack when I realized this a couple weeks ago lol I have the big things all booked thank goodness. However my MOH and I still have to gather supplies for the centerpieces, we have made a sample we are happy with & need more supplies. I need to order invitations, my bouquet & ceremony swags for the arch. Go wedding & BM dress shopping (I'm doing that next month) order suits, get his band and go over music with our dj. Write vows. Sooo many little details that are so important for that day. It's stressful but I'm trying to stay calm lol We got this my fellow October brides 😁

    Ahhhh it's going so fast and I have so much to do! Booked all my vendors, just need to focus on the smaller details, like decorations, veil, shoes, accessories, and making playlist. My fiancé still hasn't gotten his suit and it's driving me nuts! It's his number one priority now and once it's done, I'll breathe a sigh of relief Smiley smile Also need to get my one bridesmaid a dress, but I'm not stressing about that too much!

    I think we have all been thinking the same thing. I did my try-on appointment with my dress yesterday so my sister could see it. I set my alteration appointment as well. Got my veil. My FH finally got his suit picked out and the GM have their appointments on Sunday for fittings. The BM's need to finish getting their dresses. I got my quote back for the florist and I need to finalize that. Starting to get the small decor items like signs and, etc. Man, I am feeling a little overwhelmed as I write this because I'm starting to realize the things that need to be done. No stress!! lol

So much ogistics stuff to do though like timeline and where im gonna get ready!

    We're working on honeymoon plans with a travel agent right now, and that's the biggest stress. We still need to update our passports. FH still needs his suit and shoes. And we still need to meet with our officiant. Though we've got him booked already. So that's not too bad. We need to get a few little decor items together (candles, mostly), and finalize the playlist and schedule. I'm really happy I already did my hair trial.

    We need to decide and order invites. DJ isn’t booked yet. He’s our last vender to book.
    I need to do alterations on my dress, buy FH dress shirt and wedding band, and figure out how we want to do seating arrangements. All of the reception decor is finalized. Also need to start learning how to dance!
