I'm very behind.

Booked :

We pretty much picked our DJ just have to confirm with him
Know them and decor color scheme


To Do:
Still ask 1 person in Bridal Party
Finish STD's and get them out
Find officiant
Find my dress
Book Hotel Blocks - but first decide if we are staying out or at home the night of
Decide on if we are doing brunch the next day

And the list goes on but the above is our current focus.



Update - DJ booked, Dress ordered, Bridal party finalized. STD's are done just have to finalize what hotel we are blocking to insert those and then they need to mailed. Most of the envelopes are addressed and I have the stamps.

Lots to do still!
