Now that it's almost our year...

I feel like it's really crunch time!!

So, just to ease my craziness, let me get your input on how I'm doing. So far, we've:

Booked venue (getting married at venue, so no ceremony site needed)
Booked photographer/videographer
Booked florist
Booked officiant
Ordered my dress
Booked make up artist
Have done a few hair trials, another set for end of January
BM dresses decided, almost all sized, last one will be end of January and then the order will officially go in
Invitations decided on
Booked DJ
Sent STDs
Registered

Jobs for January:
Book rehearsal
Finalize hair (hopefully!)
Complete BM dress order
Book transportation
Order flower girl dress
Book engagement shoot (hopefully for April)
Finalize baker and do cake tasting

Then, of course, post-January will be details like programs, escort cards, go see a sample of our centerpieces, etc.

Anything I'm totally missing?? I've begun buying BM gifts, FH has finished his groomsmen gifts. Veil will wait till my dress comes in in March.

Appreciate any input!

I feel like you are doing great! I can't think of anything you might be leaving out. Oh wait. Shoes for yourself?

What about tuxes, invitations, favors, limos?
Sounds like you got a lot done already!

You seem pretty ahead of the game! Maybe start at least shopping around for favors, unless you already know what you want to do.

I'd say you're in great shape! You've gotten more done than me and I'm 5 months before you!

You're getting married two days before me! We're pretty much on the same timeline. I'm planning to finalize my honeymoon flights, etc. in January, I don't see that on your list. I hope I can finalize invitations by mid-February, we just started looking.
