September Brides

Hi Ladies!!!

I have 3 months and 10 days until the big day and I think i'm slowly starting to spaz out in trying to figure out what I have left to do. For the most part, all my vendors are booked and i just have to set up time lines and pay them off but I think i still have time for that....

What's left to get done? I have EVERYTHING booked...I know that i need to do the following....let me know if i'm missing anything

1- compiling seating arrangements (that will start in August)
2- purchasing a unity candle
3-bird cage/moneybag/cardbox
4- picking out/finalizing the church music/readings
5- making snack packs for the bridal party so they don't pass out at my wedding from starvation or thirst
6- buying gifts for the parents (and i'm stumped with that)
7- order my programs/seating board
8- confirming my appointments with my hair/makeup/dress lady...
9- marriage license
10- ring pillows needed (either purchased or made...i may attempt being artistic and sew one together for a 'vintage' feel)

What other major things am i missing? I know i'm missing something.....

I have the hall, church, limos, flowers, dresses (BM's, MOB, FMIL and myself taken care of), tuxedos, shoes, veil, hair piece, groomscake, cake vendor, honeymoon all squared away

We have so much to think about and finalize!!! UGH! Brain is in overload.

Buy favors (if you are doing them)
Get Toasting Flutes
Give photographer must have photo list

I'm with you. I have a million lists everywhere. I'm getting a bit overwhelmed.

Me too!

I'm having a little trouble actually getting started on the millions of things i have on the list. It's like I know what i have to do, but I feel like it's too early to do, even though it's not. lol I can't really explain it. Anyone else feeling that way!?

I'm in total agreement. My MOH told me this would happen, it creeping up on you. I've tried to do a little bit every week. Just scheduled my menu appt. and was told I had to come in the week of for final payment and to drop off favors, escort cards..etc. I live in NJ so had to take an extra day - totally not complaining this brings my total time off to 2 1/2 weeks - and really at the end of the day is better so I don't have to bring everything out the day before. But it was extra time to do things.

I pretty much have everything in order it's just getting it done at this point, because some things can't be done until the week or two before - OOT box goodies, candy table candy, escort cards...

I'm still waiting on my dress to come in too.

Here is my 'To Do List'

Flower girls baskets, cake topper, cake serving set, toasting flutes, menu's, programs, napkins, cigars, matches, shoes, undergarments, pick readings, placecards, parent gifts, groomsmen gifts, order square votives, hair/makeup, OOT bags, card box or money bag, marriage license, FG/RB gifts, DOJ, favors! I am sure I forgot something.

I still need hair/makeup!! OMG, I feel so far behind.
