Wedding date - 8/15/2020

Ask the question again, but put August 2020 brides. It may pick up more responses. You’re doing a really great job, if you’re already planning now!

Ive got a majority of our wedding stuff planned just paying for most of it only thing left to do is the dj and catering deposits and then paying those off

August 2020 bride here! We just booked our photographer and DJ... Need to start looking for an officiant next. Happy planning!

Thank you!! You as well!! Wow! I really need to start planning more!! So much to do! We almost found our venue though and I think everything else will be super easy to plan after that!

Not a bride - my fiance and I are two grooms. (I'm the one on the left.) We're also getting married on August, 15, 2020. Most of the wedding planning is finished- only big detail I'm working on is the cake at the moment. The rest of it will happen in time once we're a little closer to the wedding. Now we're basically saving up to make payments on things each month. :-)

View Quoted Comment Wow!! That’s amazing! When did you start planning? He just proposed not too long ago.. so I have LOTS to do!

He proposed to me mid-August and I proposed to him the day after, so that’s the symbolism with why we want our wedding around that time. We started planning not long after we got engaged- maybe a week or two after. Having event planning experience, I took the lead, but my fiancé also helped by reaching out to our photographer and DJ. He’s been involved with every decision we make. We mainly spend a little time each weekend to plan something for the wedding so even some of the small details are planned.

August 15 2020 bride here! We have our venue and DJ done... now to find photographer and florist!

We have almost done just a few more details and we are set! I wanted to be prepared and have everything set in advance so there was no worrying and we could just enjoy it all!

We have the venue, the photographer, the florist, and the videographer done. We have a catering tasting set up for April, though we need to plan some more (it's difficult because we're planning from 600ish miles away - we moved a couple years ago). I have a dj/photobooth package I'm sort of sitting on, because I want to get everything worked out with the caterer first...

Otherwise, it's just us slowly accumulating everything for our favors and clothing and etc over the next year and a half-ish....

Bride twin here August 15th, 2020! I only have the venue booked. I have made up my mind on the photographer, florist, and bakery but haven't pulled the trigger just yet. I've started looking into doing my own centerpieces and have purchased some of the flowers I will need to do them. I've also started looking at dresses. I made myself a little wedding planner binder and put extra sleeves so if you attend any bridal fairs you can put brochures for places you like in the binder. Happy planning!

We haven't decided if we want 08/22/2020 or 08/15/2020! But for sure an August wedding!!

Hi twin!!

We are currently waiting for the contract from the venue, I have narrowed the caterers down to two, just waiting on quotes! We have our photographer booked and I have three wedding dress appointments set for later this year!

8/15/2020 here! We've hired venue/catering, DOC, DJ, ceremony musician, photographer, photo booth, and officiant. The biggest vendors we have left are baker and hair/make up artist. I will be so pumped when all of our vendors are lined up!

Next is invitations, attire, and little details!

I love your story and your planning progress is encouraging. My fiance proposed on August 15th last year and we have not officially set a date yet, lots of life happening lately. As I was setting up my profile for this site I realized that August 15th 2020 is a Saturday! For now that is our tentative date but I love the history. It will also depend on venues and availability. Do you have any advice on venues?

A lot of it depends on your budget and how much your venue can do. Hotels are great as they can usually waive the venue fee so you're mainly being charged catering. It's also convenient because they can also be your host hotel so you don't need to provide transportation for your guests. Places in the city are ridiculously expensive - there are some decent places within the city but most of them alone are at the $40,000 range for catering. To plan everything else outside of that is excessive in my opinion. So I went to the suburbs where the prices are much friendlier. I'm having mine at NOAH's Event Venue, which is fairly pricy for the amount I'm paying for the venue, but they include a lot that other venues don't do and I can customize it exactly to my taste. They have these awesome ceiling decor, which really transforms the space plus they provide lots of linen options, which is mostly free (except you have to pay a cleanup fee for it) as linen can be really expensive if you want more than just black or white. I also really like my venue because we're allowed to get outside catering, which saved us a ton of money. We kept catering to $9,000-$12,000 for 160 people and it includes a gift for all guests. So there were a lot of pros with my venue but it came with a price. Hopefully this helps with your wedding planning. Good luck! Try to enjoy the process. At times it can be really stressful, but it' can also be a lot of fun too. :-)

When should I look for my dress?

Oooowww me me meeee thats our wedding date and cant waittt. So far we've book our photographer to do our photos and video, our DJ, Caterers, Hair Stylist. Our venue we still shopping around since we are having a huge wedding holding 200-250 family and friends I still holding off on my dress due to weight loss same with my matron of honor and bridesmaids, our honeymoon we looking to moon in the grand Cayman or the Maldives in Asia. Anywho Im a business owner since June 9th 2019 of Crifty Crafty Creations LLC which consists of event planning, decorating homes partys meetings babyshowers conference's wedding etc, Catering clothing designing T-shirt pressing sweets maker etc anything crafty fun I can do it with no problem thats why my wedding is going to look like a 30,000 40,000 wedding or more than that but will only cost us 10,000 or less because of all the deals I receive as a business owner and people I know. My matron of honor, bridesmaids and I we'll be decorating my wedding invitations, my items for the tables etc... I cant wait to share with everyone the out coming look.
