What was the easiest part of planning...and what was the hardest?

Easiest:

Hmm. I'm pretty laid back about things so the whole planning process has been really enjoyable and not too stressful. I knew right away I wanted to do my own bo-k's (which I absolutely love!) so that was the easiest decision. We pretty much booked places on the spot after hearing good things about them and being in a hundered and one weddings ourlseves, we kindagot a feeling of what we wanted and didn't want.

hardest: the honeymoon and my shoes haha

we are taking our honeymoon in December after I graduate with my MASTERS (woop woop!) and finish Student teaching. We both are so indecisive, and want to go everywhere LoL but we have plenty of time to think about it!

My shoes, forgetaboutit. Every pair I try on sucks, hurts, or is too high or too low. My dress is ivory so the places I've been to are more like promy shoes. boo.

What was the easiest part of planning...and what was the hardest?


Easiest...
Getting engaged
MY LOVELY DRESS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Mom's Dress



Hardest...
Guest Seating: I havent even started and im getting TOO much crap of it
Bridal party... we have seem true colors of Xfriends...
MIL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The easiest thing was choosing the RH, dress & bridal party (I chose mostly family lol) Also, all the little touches have been fun and enjoyable.

The hardest part, by far, was getting the church in order. Also, the budget was blown about 5 minutes after we started planning...so reining things in has been difficult also.

I have to say majority of everything has been pretty easy. Didn't really have a big problem deciding on a dress - I knew exactly what I wanted and found it in our price range. We both instantly loved the Riviera and it was in our price range so that decision was a breeze. Heard such amazing things about our photog/limo/DJ that we had no problems/worries when booking with them. Even the florist wasn't a problem (even though the original one flaked, we had no problems finding a new florist and couldn't be happier with them).

If I had to say one thing that was more of annoyance to deal with than anything else would have to be getting in touch with the priest that is supposed to be marrying us. We initially didn't have too big a problem getting in touch with him to ask if he would like to do the ceremony and we was more than happy to do it. Now, FH has tried and tried and tried to get in touch with him for months and no luck. He doesn't even know when our RD is because we can't get in touch with him to tell him. This close to the wedding, I am getting very nervous about him just not responding or showing up. We really wanted to get together and meet with him over dinner just to get to know me better (he already knwos FH) and to discuss the ceremony. I told FH that if he can't get in touch with him before our meeting with my church next Saturday, we are just going to have the priest at my church marry us. I can't be worried about this, this close to the wedding.

most everything was easy and stress free for me! Esp choosing my gown!!!


Hardest thing so far was the Limo's for me!
And choosing my headpiece and veil.

I have a feeling though that seating charts and card boxes, menus, place cards wont be a walk in the park.....

Everything, including my dress, was easy and stress free. I think it's because I am very decisive and know what I want when I see it! I easily picked all my vendors, including the band, which luckily FH and I both love.

The hardest thing right now is convincing FH to do uplighting
