Wedding Checklist Part Deux

W-Minus 6-9 Months.
  • Send "Save the Date" cards to alert guests of the wedding date. - Not doing any. Brides who refer to them as "STDs" make me queasy.
  • Begin dress fittings for gowns and veils. Bring stockings, heels, a strapless bra, and a hair clip to each appointment. - I've done this! But I wore sweatpants, so LOL.
  • Shop for bridesmaids' dresses. Allow 6 months for ordering and sizing.
  • Get in shape for your wedding gown by starting an exercise routine. - Oh god.
  • Get ideas for honeymoon locations and research pricing. - See, now that sounds like something I want to do. Research a vacation!
  • Start looking at floral designs and interview florists for style and cost. - *Shrugs.*
  • Search for menu ideas and start meeting with caterers. - Hotel reception stuff.
  • Research wedding photography and interview wedding photographers/videographers. - I'm hoping this works out. Videographer?
  • Get ideas for music and interview bands/DJs. - iPod playlist?
  • Choose your officiant and discuss ceremony ideas. - Dad thing.
  • Start thinking about all your gift registry options. - Not registering.
  • Select three hotels in varying price ranges and reserve rooms for out-of-town guests. - Ceremony/Reception is at a hotel.
  • Launch a wedding website. Note the date of the wedding, travel information, and accommodations. Then send the link to invitees. - ?? Maybe.
  • Start composing a day-of timeline. Draw up a schedule of the event and slot in each component (the cake-cutting, the first dance).
Okay, overwhelmed again. LOL
