Re: April 2009 Girlies - What have you done so far

I'm very behind.

Booked :
RH

We pretty much picked our DJ just have to confirm with him
Know them and decor color scheme


To Do:
Still ask 1 person in Bridal Party
Finish STD"s and get them out
Find officiant
Find my dress
Book Hotel Blocks - but first decide if we are staying out or at home the night of
Decide on if we are doing brunch the next day

And the list goes on but the above is our current focus.

Re: April 2009 Girlies - What have you done so far

We will all get there - I think I was a little over zealous with getting everything done so quickly - I cant plan or meet with a vendor again until after Christmas.. I have serious demands with my school schedule on top of working full time... I can like my planning vicariously through all of you girls

Re: April 2009 Girlies - What have you done so far

I was in super planning mode when we first set the date so all major vendors have been booked.

I still have to get the STD's out, make lists of who to invite, order cardbox and cake topper, get the BM dresses finalized, pick out invites, reserve RD place, get the guys tuxes picked out and I think that is it. Oh yea- BP gifts.

Re: April 2009 Girlies - What have you done so far

Yay! Glad to see so many April brides!

So far I have:
Wedding Coordinator
Church
Reception Hall
Dress
Rings
Photographer
Videographer
Makeup
Bridesmaid Dresses

We have already decided on our florist and dj, but haven't booked them yet - probably will be taken care of by the end of this week or early next week. I know what I'm doing for favors and probably for bridesmaid gifts but haven't gotten them yet.

Still have to do:
Invitations
Menus
Programs
Limos
Tuxes
Cake
Cake Topper

I think that's it?

ETA - Oh and I still need hair - I know who I'm using, but have to book.
