Things forgotten: What did you forget? Planning and day of

It must have been less than a week before when my mom was randomly asking me about the stuff i bought to make sure i bought it all

so she goes "do you have cups?" yes

"do you have beverage containers?" yes

"do you have napkins?" .... I FORGOT NAPKINS omg i lied and said yes hahha

but right after i called my spouse and said OH MY GOD WE NEED NAPKINS ASAP

this was all for my social hour at the church after the ceremony. it was DIY so i was good about getting everything else except napkins which honestly you can't go without napkins

I just bought a handheld steamer off Amazon, almost forgot that!

This is on my list to get sometime in the next 31 days. LOL

Sounds like you're on top of everything. Remember that the stress of it all can throw your cycle off-schedule. Pack Midol, Thinx and any other supplies you might need just in case.

You didn't say whether you're working with a coordinator. Make sure to share your 10 lists and all updates with your coordinator or designate a point person (not in the wedding party) and give their number to your vendors. You don't want them calling you or your SO while you're trying to get dressed. Speaking of, plan for light snacks while you & your party are getting dressed.

Chat with your officiant about who you want to sign your marriage license as witnesses. Confirm whether your officiant will mail the license after the wedding. If they won't, be clear about who they should give it to after the ceremony.

You said "I know nothing in life is perfect, so I’m already pep talking myself not to go insane if something small happens." Something small will happen. No wedding goes flawlessly (compared to all the details we obsess over). It will still be a beautiful day!

Are you staying in a hotel? Borrow their iron for a few hours and use it as a steamer!

We aren't. The venue is actually only 15 minutes from the house, but we are getting ready there. mine will be steamed the day we pick it up, but I worry about those bridesmaid dresses.

Congratulations! I am just under my 100 day mark too! I am also wondering what I might forget on that day. I read so many similarities between your post and myself. My best advice is to have a plan B and plan C for everything so that when something does go wrong as everyone has said it will then you have an alternative. Also try to eliminate as many responsibilities as possible for yourself. Best of Luck and always remember it is one day and you can do that day over as may times as you want in vow renewals. What is important is the love between you and your soon to be husband. xo

Do you have pretty hangers for pictures of your dress? That was the one thing I forgot until the last minute
