girls with less than a year

I am so jealous of you! How are all of your plans? Are you done with almost everything? I cant wait to be at a year. We just had our 8 month anniversary of being engaged. i cant believe i still have another year and 3 months to go. and to think, i wanted to get married in oct of this year!! i would be soooo close!!!!

Is there anything you fear about your day?

Re: girls with less than a year

I was going to list the things we needed to do, but it would be much easier to list the very few (but big) things we did get done...

Done:
RH
DJ
Dress and veil
HM
Florist- almost- need to see a few more

Next week agenda: look at invitations, visiting officiant, another florist, Barrons for hair stuff, my BH (a hairdresser) is doing a trial for me.

Oh, and I fear rain and Bridezilla coming out with all the stress (but people have said- it wont happen)!

You probably have more done than me- haha

Re: girls with less than a year

I have the big stuff done.

I'm ordering my dress next week.

I'm doing BM dresses at the end of the summer.

We need to find an officiant!

I also need to do hair and makeup trials.

I have to do limos, and I guess just a bunch of small stuff. One of these days I'll sit down and figure it out!

And that my sorority sisters/frat boy friends will get plastered and spill on me.....
