So we are roughly in the 6-7 months left and I have a very small window of free time before fall comes so we are trying to get everything that can be done now, done... That being said we are trying to come up with a list to get organized on what's done so far and what's left to do. Feedback is greatly appreciated if I'm forgetting things which I'm sure I am
Done: DJ, Photographer, Venue, Dress, Bridesmaid & Jr. Bridesmaid dresses, day of jewelry me and bridal party, partial bridesmaid gifts, ordered centerpieces (only stressful thing so far), Rehearsal lunch/dinner booked, book invitations, Booked Officiant & Church, Hotel Block, Mailed STD's, Update passports, honeymoon, register, wedding night hotel room, Limo, wedding rings
Left to do: Find shoes Cake tasting Book florist Guys attire Undergarments for dress Stuff for favors Finalize wedding party gifts Menu details Meet with Father Nedelka Choose readings Invitations for rehearsal lunch Wording for wedding invites Make-up trials Hair trials Programs for wedding Menu Seating cards Order “snow” to throw after ceremony Seating chart Marriage license Table names Earrings for bridesmaids Channa Plaque Headband for me Bathroom signs? Out of town bags Reception music Parent gifts Clothing for honeymoon Dress fittings Unity candle Shoes for jr. bridesmaids Guest list for invitations Pick up and assemble centerpieces Request time off for honeymoon Baskets for bathrooms
Sorry for the long post and hope everyones planning is coming along

You're not I just know that come September I will have zero time to do anything so most things need to be done sooner for us... and the snow, see if the link will work

I actually added parents gifts, card box and something else that I can't remember right now because it's at home. I left off grooms cake because I copied the list directly from our master list and I don't want him to see that and I think we are veering away from gifts for each other, other then maybe a nice card.
How's your planning comming along?

Things are coming along but now it's the small stuff. I will be seeing my MOH this weekend or next and hopefully finish up with our invitations. She did her wedding invitations, her best friend's wedding invitations as well as her baby shower invites so she is helping me with mine =) One day my girls are coming over for dinner and drinks to put together our favors (definitely after drinks lol) Ordered our card box and ring bearer box from etsy, then ordering my girls their gifts. Shoes will come shortly after as well as I'm sure many other things. Ordering our flutes next week from Things Remembered and looking at this little countdown clock on LI Weddings and can not believe our wedding will be in 185 and yours will shortly follow. Can you freakin believe it!!!!
