need some help!

here's the deal, i have been in the hospital since dec 23rd, long story, i just got home last week, but i am still on home care, i really can't leave the house, it's still too hard. anyway my question is what can i do from home, what should i be planning with the wedding being 6 months away????? i am trying to get my motivation back but it's hard, the setback of being couped up in the hospital has really taken a toll on me!! i really need some motivation and i need to know what i should be doing and this point....any advice would be greatly appreciated!!!

Your health is the most important. I say focus on getting better....and use the computer to get together all your ideas and comparing prices, etc. When you are up to it, it will all come together.


Keeping you in my thoughts.

Maybe you can start to look at different prints for your invites, menus, sign in books, etc.

I hope you're feeling better. I agree that you should focus on getting your health back first.

First and foremost.. hope you are feeling better.. secondly, you can pretty much do anything online these days.. I ordered my invites, favors, and bm's presents online.. look online for any other things you may want to do in person so you have an idea and dont have to waste time looking around

First, of course, is concentrating on getting better...but part of that might be to have your mind distracted and to feel productive

Anything you need to do IMO can be planned, if not purchased, on line. Take the time to investigate the vendors on this site.and dream a bit...wht do you want? where do you want your pictures taken? what thoughts do you have about a dress...what about those for the bridesmaids? Are you having a flower girl? ring bearer?

Maybe see if you can on some mailing list of catalogs dealing with weddings...although you probably are already...they always perk me up when I start getting to think the process is tedious...

And stay on the boards...we'lll keep you company and help you however we can!

My thoughts are with you!

Yes, concentrate on your health first. Can FH help out with the planning?
I'm planning from OOT so it's like planning from home. I do a lot of planning and shopping online.

Some things you can do online:
Check out veils
Order BM gifts
Look at invitations
Ideas for table settings (ex. menus, table numbers/names)
Ideas for wedding programs
Favors
Your gift registry
Your list of 'MUST-Have' photo shots
Your don't play and must play song list
Finalize your guestlist



This list is getting too long, so I'm going to stop.

As everyone has said, defenitly focus on getting better first. I hope that you are up and around soon!! But keep in mind you can defenitly do everything from home. I live in NC and am planning the wedding from here for LI in September and I have done everything on the internet and phone.
