Labor day brides -- less than 8 weeks
How is everyone doing?
Aside from the fact that I have jury duty 1 month before the wedding everything is great. My sister just called and told me she is getting me the Tivo from the registry!
My to do list is growing smaller every week.
Assemble favors (This weekend!)
Dress fittings - 3 (Starting this Wednesday)
Arrange pre-wedding, post wedding travel. (We don’t have car, so we’ll need to have a service pick us up. I am not taking a cab with that dress, and all the other nonsense we have to bring -- my packing list is TWO pages)
Submit wedding announcement to newspaper – at least 6 weeks prior to wedding.
Get marriage license. (August)
Work on a list of 'must-play' (and 'must-not play') songs for DJ.
Confirm wedding-night and honeymoon reservations.
Work out wedding day timing and details and draw up a schedule. (Started one, will revise when I know more). Send out to parents and bridal party.
Start planning the rehearsal & book rehearsal-dinner site.
Attend Shower (at Grandma’s house)
Write thank you notes after Shower (mid-July)
To be done 1 week prior:
Confirm head count, delivery time, and location with the cake maker, florists, and reception location. Confirm location, date, and time with photographer.
Review seating and other needs with ceremony site. (Not a temple/church, and we want an unusual seating arrangement).
Finalize seating assignments and make place cards.
