Thats a great start!

- Paid remainder of total for our floral design + confirmed pick up;

As for what's left to do, there's lots still!

What’s done:
-All vendors are booked/deposits down except bakery (doing next spring) and florist which I’m doing next week
-bridal gown and bridesmaids dress appointments are made
-engagement photo session appointment is made
-wedding party is confirmed

what needs to be done:
-dresses/fittings
-suits/fittings
-wedding bands
-save the dates and invitations
-book overnight accommodations
-decor (although I know exactly what I want)

I'm not talking about how much I still have to do and only 20 odd days to get it done.

Wow what a productive week! It must feel so great to get that all checked off.

I booked a couple dress shopping appointments for the end of June and I'm so excited! Next I need to confer with our photographer, my hairstylist, and makeup artist to sort out a date in the fall for engagement photos.

Nah, I was just lazy! When FH purchased the ring, he made sure to get the lifetime warranty, which includes a free sizing!

Thats great! I still have to do my wine and figure all of that out. James needs to figure out a date that works for the guys to go get measured for suits/give timeline of when needs to be ordered by.

Right? Def feels like huge pressure off my back- we only have smaller items to pay off

Wow that is amazing to get all that paid off!

Right now I am just making sure I have addresses, last names plus ones etc. for all my guests. I addressed all the labels of the people that I already had.

My labels have come in.

I ordered my bridal shower dress and that has come in.

We will be working on our guest book, wine box, and suits for the guys this weekend

I love paying stuff off! Congratulations!

I did my engagement photos this week and got my photos back! So now we’re designing our Save the Dates!

we’re also collecting addresses right now!

Starting to plan my bridal shower as well need to coordinate with my mom and sister!

Yes thankfully it didn't cost me much and luckily the sizes they had in the store fit us perfectly! Was shocked

I'm glad it didn't cost you much. Also that majority of the invites were still kept back.

Wedding bands for my husband and I had to be resized after the wedding as I had to get a clip to hold onto my finger for the wedding day. Its crazy how much more we pay to get it done and once.

Lol I don't blame you though its an extra cost I am assuming?

I had a credit on the account and just re-ordered them. My family hasn't sent them out yet and his mom only set out a few. I had the company fix other mistakes of mine in the past so didn't want to have to ask again for favor. In the end didn't cost me much to reorder

Yes that's good point! I have the places registered on the bridal invite!

Any chance you are sending out a separate invite for the wedding shower (if you are having one)? If so then just make sure to put it on there

I picked up my wedding band this week after getting it resized! My FH has had his band for awhile and I've had mine since September - I was putting of the sizing lol

What a busy week and so much slashed off the list to do. About the shower, is the company willing to make new cards due to the wrong date? Otherwise, having both mothers making calls to let family members know about the shower date is easier than printing new cards and paying if not free from the company.

Thats still exciting! It will make your camping life more enjoyable ! I started to get some rsvps too a lot of people weren't fan of the website though and just called to tell me. Only down side is my gift registry info is on it and not my invitations..

Oh goodness - I got stuff done, but not wedding related.

- made an offer and down payment on a trailer for camping

- started getting some RSVP's

But now that you mention the kennel for your dog I for sure need to look into getting my dog into one for my FH's cousin's wedding this July and again for our wedding in October!
