I'm finally starting to feel like we are at a good spot in the wedding planning. I've had numerous breakdowns and freakouts on Tony and yelled THERE IS SO MUCH TO DO. YOU SHOULD SEE MY TO-DO LIST!!! Then a few minutes later I finally realize I'm being irrational. I have gotten to cross a few things off of the list, which is probably more exciting to me than it should be. It feels good to see things coming off of the list. Here is a brief overview of what we have accomplished.
1.) The ever important wedding dress purchased. Should be coming in around April or May (SOON) I need to see it again b/c i've been afraid I wont love it anymore. But I'm sure as soon as I put it on it will all come back to me.
2.) Reception Booked. We've done our taste test and picked our menu.
3.) Church Booked. A couple of months before the wedding we will meet with the church coordinator and discuss everything ceremony related.
4.) Photographer Booked. A big thing I was stressing out. Photography is sooo expensive. Some of the photographers I saw online were almost as much as our whole reception. But we found a very reasonably priced one. Engagement photos to follow sometime in May once it gets nice.
5.) Semi final guest list. I feel like the guest list is never finished until the invites actually go out.
6.) Flower situation is almost figured out. My mom found this great place in Centerville that sells flowers super cheap, and you have the option to arrange them yourselves. You get to work with a coordinator who orders your flowers. They even provide a facility and supplies to arrange everything. We're meeting with the coordinator on April 4th.
7.) The Bridal party is picked, and the girls have picked their dresses and purchased them.
8.) We decided on Save the Dates and will be taking pictures for those in Florida next week. Hopefully we will have those sent out sometime in april.
9.) Decided on a Honeymoon. Tony has been talking with a travel agent, so she is trying to get us a good price. That is my BIG To-Do right now. To put down a deposit and get our room/flight booked.
I guess that is all ... I feel like that is a good amount of tasks to have completed. But I know there are A MILLION little ones that are still left, and a couple of Bigger ones. Next up
1.) Get Honeymoon booked.
2.) Start registering
3.) Invitations.
4.) Book Hair/Makeup
We're leaving for florida next Tuesday for Rae's wedding. I can't wait! Seeing how excited she is and thinking of what it must be like to be that close to the wedding makes me excited!
