How many days until yours?
What do you still have to do? I feel like I still have so much to do.

    Thoae who feel yoir going crazy about whats left to do? Make a list and check it off and prepare bags accordingly to the set up and function.

    I did a lot of online shoppping and put 6 bags together for ddifferent set ups:
    1. Gift favours, thank you cards and seating plans/arrangement.
    2. Reception area items for tables, head table and cake table.
    4. Ceremony set up items, wedding folder
    5. Prepared welcome bags, welcome information and cases of water.
    6. Wedding and reception outfits, shoes and accessories.
    7. Clothes, garments, cologne, make up and toiletories needed. Contact lenses and solution.

    Hope it helps and to keep track what is done and what needs to be completed.

    Haha - that is mostly true! My fiance has been really amazing through this entire process when it comes to the decision making. He helps me pick out everything so the pressure is not so much on me. I just have control issues so want to do everything myself.

    Although...I think I will be really sad when this is all over and I will wish for the chaos.

    Why do we put ourselves through this? The guys are so laid back while we're running around like chickens with our heads cut off. I think the details are more important to the women.

    For sure, I even wake up in the middle of the night and have to write more stuff down because I forget it.

    Yes, it's all about, "Don't forget this", and "I have to remember that".

    I am using the Wedding Wire checklist as well as a few others that I have. They all cover it somehow. I am using the Wedding Wire table planner.

    Outfit is all done except accessories. Doing that next week.

    Favors are done, gifts are almost done.

    Wedding party can't really do much as they all have kids but I have some friends that are helping.

    I am sending the shot list in the next week.

    Songs are still a work in progress - tiresome.

    That is a crazy amount of stuff to do. You will be just fine though Smiley smile DIYers are so awesome. We still have to make our favors but it's coffee beans so I don't want to do them too early even though they would be in a sealed bag. Have a beautiful day!

    Are you using a checklist to plan? Will you use a table plan or escort cards? Do you have your whole outfit planned, including accessories? Have you secured any gifts and favors? Does your wedding party have all the logistic info they need? Does your photographer have your shot list? Have you selected any special songs for your ceremony and reception?

    Yikes!! I have 44 days left. I still have to make one bouquet, put together my arch and decorate it, make my favours (homemade apple butter), remove the tiny tassels from my shawl and sew pearls on instead, and bake my wedding cake. Yes, I'm a huge "DIY"er. Then I have to plan our trip. Also, we're renovating my FH's house so there's a timeline for that as well! I hope I get it all done.

    That is the best stuff to have out of the way. The closer I get the tinier the list gets but then more stuff gets added on. So weird. Congrats btw.

I'm 65 Days out and I still have to buy the gifts for the wedding party, get my seating chart organized and printed, confirm our cake with our friend who will be making it. And I think today I will order our table numbers. I feel like there are other things that I'm totally forgetting!
