Hello!

My fiance and I got engaged two day’s ago and today decided to shoot for April 24/25 or May 1/2 depending on various availabilities.
We have talked about a court house vs. pop up and are still deciding.
We’ll be getting married in a small town. There are local sites a lot of people do pop-ups, all really on the water. Then we’d like to do a big crab and shrimp feast at a restaurant with an open bar, so anyone can order a different meal if they’d like. With just both our immediate families and a few select friends, we’re looking at 35-40 people or so.
Who is doing something similar?
Where do I start?
What do I need to not forget?
What is important to start ASAP?
Thanks everyone!!

I think it’s possible! My timeline was longer at 4.5 months but most of the big stuff, I took care of within the first 45 days.

I’d check for a venue first for sure to make sure your group can be accommodated on a date that works for you guy.

You can probably start getting your marriage license, most states are 60 days. I'd get a venue and a dress first, then worry about other things

Our timeline was 7.5 months, but you can do it. If you're going super small, start with venue/food, attire, and officiant. Everything after that is generally extra.
Good luck!

Thank you! I'm looking at vendors now to decide if we want to go this route, or courthouse

Thanks @Rachael! I immediately checked after seeing this! I checked in the county we'll be getting married and it looks like there is a 2 day waiting period. I'm checking out venues and dresses now!

Thank you @Rebecca! It felt good to check so many things off the list I won't have to worry about! Working on getting all the puzzle pieces to fit with venue, food and dates mainly. I appreciate it!
