So many things done off of our checklist. How's your planning going?

Sounds like you've got quite a bit of planning done! Nice work!! And that cake design - beautiful!! What flavors did you decide on for your cake?

You’ve got so much accomplished- congrats! There’s still a lot more planning to do! Bridesmaids dresses, hair design, makeup, bridesmaid’s bags, etc! I’m pretty sure you won’t run out of things to do!

I know people will say I'm crazy but we booked an all inclusive un October 2019. Our wedding day, God willing, is May 2021. I booked the and paid for the florist Jan 2020. Booked the photographer with a deposit Jan 2020. Paid for the donut station Feb 2020. Found my say yes to the dress, Feb 2020. Bridesmaids have their dresses since June 2020. I bought my veil, shoes, jewelry, and headband also Feb of this year. Half the payment has already been made to the venue too. The way I see it. I would rather pay the major stuff off and not majorly stress and become a bridezilla.

I feel like there's still a lot of planning that you could do. Did you choose a photographer/videographer? Your dress and your bridal party dresses? Shoes and jewelry? Do yourself food tasting and pick yourself menu? Choose save the dates and invitations? Just trying to name things so you won't get bored lol p

That's fantastic. Getting things done is always a sigh of relief. Had a bridesmaid dress appt today and that went super quick and very smooth. I've been talking to a florist and we have another meeting next week. Ordered FH's suit a couple days ago so happy to have gotten that out of the way. We're mailing invites in the next few days so we're excited about!

That's great you got so much done

View Quoted Comment Hahaha I'm sure you are right.

View Quoted Comment 😮😮😮 that sounds amazing!! Love the idea of caramel buttercream, great choice!

View Quoted Comment Thats great. I feel the same way. I half everything at least half paid and plan on having it all paid sooner then later. I don't want to wait until everything is all due at once 2 weeks before the wedding, thats wicked stressful lol. And I think all inclusive is the way to go if you can, it makes everything a breeze.

View Quoted Comment Thats awesome. What are your wedding colors? And sending the invites is very exciting, I'll be stressing about addressing mine when the time comes I have crappy penmanship lol. What color suit is your fh going with?

View Quoted Comment Hahaha thanks, and I know there is still plenty to do I was just feeling excited lol. I do have my photographer, we booked a while back. I have my dress, veil, jewelry, shoes all set. I go for bridal party dresses on Nov 7th. Menu is all set. Save the dates are bought and I have been collecting addresses and filling out over the past few days. Invitations are picked and designed, I just have to wait until my venue gives me the credits to order them in February. My planning binder from venue is all filled out. Ceremony music has been selected. We have our favors picked out we are just waiting until its closer to buy and assemble. I have been trying to find a cake topper I love, but no luck yet there. I know how I want my hair done, but am not sure about makeup, its too soon for trials. With covid being a thing I've had so much more time on my hands to get things planned, I probably need to get a hobby or something 🤣😂.

View Quoted Comment Thank you 🙂

View Quoted Comment There's nothing wrong with planning ahead 🤷🏾‍♀️

View Quoted Comment Don't stress! I'm sure they'll come out wonderful. We actually got ours printed on the envelopes. My FH will be wearing a navy suit and vest with a wine tie and black shoes and belt. His boys will be wearing the same suit (minus the vest) with a silver tie. This is our wedding scheme...

View Quoted Comment Love these colors

View Quoted Comment Thank you! We're having a pretty formal event so I'm excited to see everything come together when it's set up.

My wedding is in July and you've accomplished so much more than me lol I feel I hit a wall lately, I know there's so much to do, but I just don't know what I could do right now. We go for our food tasting in January which is when we will also pick out decorations/plates/etc, I also picked up some gift tags that I'll need as well and I have my dress. We still need to pick our photographer and baker (we're actually calling someone this weekend) and my Nana is helping me with the flowers so I'm pretty much going to keep in touch with her for this.

View Quoted Comment Sound like you've got a pretty handle on things.

View Quoted Comment Thanks. I'm really trying to do as much as I can now so I don't stress later.
