I don't want to freak you out (or any of the other October brides either), but the only things I need to do are:

block rooms for OOT guests
rent chairs for ceremony
order BM dresses (girls have until Feb 1 to get measured)
DIY projects
get FG gift
get veil & shoes
write out do not & must play lists for DJ
menu choices for reception
order invites (second sample came in mail today)
mail invites
select cake
organize and book site for rehersal dinner
write out list of must take photos
get marriage license (which obviously has to wait).

FH must get his passport, and get all his gifts for the guys.
