Am I way behind?

Am I way behind?

I am getting a bit nervous by reading all of things some of you brides are accomplishing. I am thinking to myself 'oh crap! I didn't do any of that yet'. Lol. Here is what I still have to do:

Calligraphy on invite. envelope-sending out invites in Feb (a month earlier due to # of guests)
Programs
choosing readings and music for ceremony
shoes
Headpiece
Veil
tuxes
book room for wedding night

Are there any things that I should be getting done in order of priority?

Any thought would be helpful!

Go to the Knot web site it will give a list month by month what you are suppose to be doing.

Readings can be done rather quickly, giving your readers enough time to practice is where you need to be generous.

I would start with your shoes, veil and headpiece. You can't go to fittings and trials without them (for the most part).

Tuxes takes a minute, nailing down FH to do it takes forever!

Get your wedding night room ASAP to make sure you can actually get the room you want.

If you are making programs yourself, it takes a while to set up, so start that little by little and save as you go.

Good Luck! You are surely on the right track, don't worry. Some of the brides on this site are super organized and have things done so quickly that we all start to worry...

Thanks so much for all of your suggestions and help. It figures that the one thing the groom has to do on his own......doesn't have to be done til the last minute! Lol. Guys have it made. Thanks again

Hey Date Twin!

Wow! You made me feel 100% better. It is a big differnce when you have someone with the same timeline. It's has come to a point where all of the major stuff is done, so you feel like everything else can wait, and that's when I worry b/c I wasn't sure if this was a smart thing to do. Some of the girls reassured me and made suggestions as to what should have priority. Good luck with the rest of your planning!
