Thats not bad. I dont even have my shoes yet. The only other things I have other than what you have are: DJ & dress. You're not behind at all.

Re: ummm

Great list... I may have to use it to sort out my planning.

however, you can easily group a few things together over a weekend. In one week, FH and I booked photo/video, hotel block and florist. And a lot of those things can be ordered online, so that won't take too much time.

Its not that bad. Don't think on it too much, just do it. Group them in an order where you can do 3-4 in one time, like open bank account, order dress, order STDs and OOT boxes. You could prob do a few while out running errands - providing you know the dress you want.
