Six weeks out and I made the day of timeline

6 weeks! That sounds like such a little amount of time! So exciting!

I love that you included "to celebrate my wedding" on your out of office reply. I am totally going to do that for mine too. Totally not ashamed.

Totally don't think you are a control freak. You just want to be prepared. Either way, funk dat!

Happy Friday! Enjoy your weekend!

Kick ass! i've got 10 months and did my timeline. i'm an ocd planner.

I sent my department out an email this week that said I was going to start working on my end of the year stuff now because I may be a little less level headed by October and I wanted to get started now while I was thinking clearly. LOL

You're getting so close! Yayyy!!

When I mentioned a timeline to my (OCD) FSIL (BM) she was like what?! Im like this is a normal thing....her husband (GM) was like soo you're going to tell me when I can pee?! Ugh. No. Just wanna make sure you know what the day of plan looks like! Made me laugh though

I need to see one of these timelines please. I like the idea of telling my FH and son when they are allowed to pee. LOL

I think it's fine to start now and then you can fine-tune the timeline later. I always pack early when I'm leaving, even just for a weekend. The time I only packed one day early, I forgot things. I didn't forget things when I packed early! So I think that's totally fine.

I'm 5 weeks away (OMG I did not know that until I just calculated it for this comment. 37 days sounds like so much longer!) and I made my weekend and day of timeline this week. I feel SO much better now that I have it done! I'm going to email it out to everyone as soon as I finalize all the 'jobs' I have for people to do. And I barely do any work these days. It's such a joke. I wish I had this whole month off!

I made mine too, but it may need to be tweaked.

I just realized you said six weeks. I counted wrong earlier. I was thinking we had seven weeks. Hot dog!!!

We have a meeting with my entire research center the week before the wedding. I really, REALLY want to tell them all "look, if you feel like sending me an email during my honeymoon, dont. Make a nice folder in your email system called 'to send to Barbara after 9/25', and put it in there until 9/25. If you feel like I should be copied on an email, don't. Just put that shit in the folder."

Barbara - I love you!

Six weeks DisneyNut! We are freaking close! I will post the pictures later.

BAHAHA!! PS-- Please tell your mother you are smart to get the timeline done now. Ours is done in theory, but three weeks out, and I am still waiting for shitty venue confirmation that the reception timeline (i.e., time dinner can be served, cake cutting) is okay for them. This does not only mean I have ONE MORE THING to worry about, but that I can't pass this info along to the photog, videographer, DJ, etc. AHHHHH

That's great - is it something you wouldn't mind sharing?

And oh crap! You said you had 6 weeks and I thought how is that when I have 5 weeks. Uh, no I don't, I have 4 weeks!

I am Vanessa. My sister and one other BM (and the HMUA) are all named Katie, so that's why I went with the elementary last initial.

So what if you are being a control freak. if there's any time in your life should have the right to be, it's when you are a bride

I am always a control freak. Being a bride has simply intensified it.

Great job on the timeline! I'm hoping I can convince my FH to learn our first dance steps this weekend too. We only have 1 week left - yikes!

I am very anal about being ON TIME. There wasn't a chance my wedding would start late. I had a timeline too and stuck to it pretty exactly! It was also really hot the day of my wedding (90 degrees in OCTOBER. We chose October so it wouldn't be 90!) so I didn't want everyone sitting outside dying. Timelines are great!!

Holy shit Gamie! 6 frickin weeks! I need to get my ass in gear!
