OK ...Stressing out big time...

Original post by chrispar

Ok we just got engaged like 3 weeks ago. We wanted a Summer of 08 wedding. We booked at Giorgios (love it). But I am starting to freak out that I don't have enough time. It seems like everyone else has so much done already. I haven't done anything else yet besides book my hall. Am I really far behind? HELP
Thanks

I just got engaged 3 weeks ago and I am trying to get everything done....IT IS STRESS..dont let it get the best of you. Try reading Briday Guide March/April issue. They give you a timeline and checklist for what needs to be done in the upcoming months.

GOod luck!

Don't stress. When I fist got on here, I felt the same way. I
've just come to understand that we all do things at our own pace. Some quicker than others. Reading the other girls refernces and reviews have really helped me choose which vendors I want to go with. So look at it that way.

I'm not all booked up, we just have church, RH and looking into flowers and DJ. I'm not even looking at dresses until June.

I would say to go to the Bridal Show tomorrow...there will be a TON of LI vendors there that you can get a ton of information in a short amount of time (and hopefully win some prizes at the same time!) You have plenty of time. It took us over 2 months to book the RH and church. We are hoping to book the photographer on Wednesday and DJ a few days after.

You've got plenty of time.
Book a photog / video / DJ or band soon because they book quickly, especially the popular ones.

I got engaged in June of 06 and didn't start planning until three months later for my Oct 07 wedding. Got all of my first choices booked.

you are not far behind. you can get it all done. you have planty of time. alot of the girls have alot booked only cause they have had the time. if we didn't then we would be right where you are. i know alot of people who planned wedding in less then 3 months. So you are not far behind.
