Re: August/Summer Brides
I still have soo much to do!! Lets see... finalize everything (RH, Ceremony, Music, Flowers etc...) All dress fittings (dress should be in at the end of May) P/U maid of honor dress (it's in) Rent tuxes Favors Address invites Buy BM and GM gifts Book honeymoon send info to lady who's making my cake topper Make-up trial (set for Thursday) Hair trial DOJ Shoes Hair accessories Finalize guest list Seating Chart OOT bags And a million other things I haven't even thought of yet!!
OH Yeah...my colors...well since my daughter is my maid of honor (she's 9) and the only member of my bridal party I let her choose her dress. She picked the flower girl companion dress to mine so it is ivory. I am using purple/lavender accents around the room and will probably have the tuxes coordinate with that for the GM. Our flowers are purples/hot pink/ and yellow.

Re: August/Summer Brides
major vendors booked but i still have several stuff to do:
-check out limo-bus (we already have a limo but FI & i are liking the bus idea) -book HM -find RB tux -place order for BM & GM outfits -check out places for RD -place cards/table numbers -schedule 2nd fitting -food tasting (this is probably going to be closer to the date)
that's what i could think off for now. i'm pretty sure there are other stuff to do that i missed...
btw, my colors are Gold & Champagne.

Re: August/Summer Brides
I still have a lot to do: MOH dress Wedding day jewelry Rentals-we are having the wedding at my aunts house Finalize menu Buy booze Day of shoes hair and makeup Grooms attire pick flowers hire officiant invitations Book honeymoon Block hotel rooms Confirm all vendors and get contracts!
Luckily I have a wedding planner that is guiding me through everything, but it is so overwhelming. I am having it at my Aunt's house which is such a great spot but, so much has to be done since it is not at a hall.
