don't stress....you still have a lot of time and at least you are organized about what needs to be done....just set yourslef little deadlines and focus on one thing at a time....it will all work out

You're not that far behind, I have the same to do list left as you except for the limos, flowers and the dresses being ordered.

I am still on the fence about CPs even though my florist has an idea on file.

Re: April brides (please tell me I am not THAT far behind)

IMO, I don't think you're far behind. I'm getting married 4-1, and I still have so much to do myself. OK, maybe I'm not the best person to be giving you advice....maybe I'm behind too? Holy crap....are we in trouble. lol

:::taking deep breaths:::

seriously though, I think you're fine! You do seem to be organized. Just set a schedule.

I'm a May bride - but I feel soooo behind. The only thing I would hurry up and do is have those 2 girls order their dresses soon! Otherwise, relax and enjoy the holidays!

I know about the dresses, one of ny girls had a baby like 4 weeks ago so I did not want to rush her. We are going the day after x-mas. The other is my MOH (sister), I am gonna email her right now to see what the deal is . Thanks girls

Re: April brides (please tell me I am not THAT far behind)

YOU ARE IN GREAT SHAPE!

I'm getting married in exactly 100 days. Here's what's left for me...

Pick out Invitations
Hire a Florist
Order Flower Girl Dresses
Book Hair & Make Up for me and girls
Order Favors
Book a Honeymoon
Pick out Tuxes for the guys
Buy gifts for the bridal party and parents

PS - I just ordered my BM & MOH dresses about 2 weeks ago. They will be in the first week of February (at least that's what Bridal Reflections tells me - we'll have to wait and see).
