What's next?

I feel like I haven't done any wedding planning in 2 months.

Here is what I have done:
-RH
-Church
-Limos
-DJ
-Photographer
-My dress
-Florist is next month
-Epics at the end of this month
-Hair/Makeup trial at the end of this month
-Guest list
-STD's
-Registry
-Invites are being designed by *her* as we speak!

Other than these things, what else can I do now?

No problem

Are you DIYing anything like programs, menus, invitations? You could maybe start on those things, like creating the basic template and then all you would have to do is fill in the information when it comes set in stone. I have actually already designed our:

Menus
Programs
Photo Sharing Cards
Favor Tags
Drinks Menu
Monogram
Seating Chart
Place Cards (but probably not using them)
Water Bottle Labels

They are all just sitting in a folder on my computer waiting to be printed LOL

I just added those to my list as things that are done or currently being worked on.. I feel like time is going to go by so slow now that I have no planning to do *sigh*

Just spend more time on here helping the other girls plan their weddings

Great idea! Thanks. What program did you use for your menus, programs and favor tags? Do you mind sharing it with me?

wow! what program did you use to create everything? i'm worried about DIYing because I feel like mine would look like a 2 year old did it lol!

I actually just used Power Point and I created everything from scratch - no templates. If you know how to use power point I could send you the file of what I've done so you can go off of it. It may not look the same on your end though because I have downloaded a ton of fonts that are not on regular computers and if you don't have the fonts I used it's going to look very screwy on your end LOL

EDIT: also, I was able to get the image that is on our invitations and use it on all these other things to sort of tie everything together.

Where were you able to download fonts from? Are they free? Your mongram stuff came out great!

i haven't done anything except my initial booking with vendors in January.
In June, I will g o to the florist to book. i am waiting until at least the end of the summer to book limos.
i looked at invitations, but haven't done anything with them yet.
not sure if we will do STD's yet.
not buying anything for anybody yet in regards to BP gifts. too early.

don't worry if you haven't done anything in awhile. everything will get done. it doesn't all need to get done right now.

mostly from Dafont.com.

I am for the most part using Marnie Regular (for the fancy font) and Riven (for the plain font). I will post some pics in my album of what I have done so far)

Good for you!!! Thats amazing that you are doing so much DIY!! I was thinking about it, then decided against but now you are making me want to change my mind again!!

First is the menu

Second Photo Sharing

Third Place cards ( though we may not use them - I'm currently working ona seating chart that will be framed on an easel when you walk in)

Fourth is Front/Back of Programs (I highlighted private info)
