How many items are still on your planning checklist?

Joey, on September 6, 2018 at 08:03 Posted in Plan a wedding 0 19

How far into planning are you? Is the finish line in sight? Is your checklist still full of to-dos? How much planning do you have left?

    Everything but booking the venue. 😂
    We're just under a year out so I'm really not that concerned.

    Not bad. We have our venue and catering will all be at the same place. Flowers are orderrd. Invitations have been ordered but we haven’t done engagement photos or save the date. Not sure we will do save the date. Wedding dress and bridesmaids dresses have been purchased. Bring barrer box bought. Loot bags purchased. Gader belt bought.
    The toughest thing for me is who to invite. We have capped it off between 80 to 90 people and my list has been made but I’m not sure it’s the right people lol. Does that make sense? Having difficulty choosing whom to invite as we don’t want it to be to big of a wedding.
    Oh and I’ve purchased my wedding shoes. Need a vail.

    So far, I've kept up with the checklist in terms of what needs to be done by such and such a date, however, come next month I'm going to be a little behind!

    I've been going with the flow, but the checklist seems endless lol.

    We are 41 days away and I still feel like there is a lot to do. Wedding guest book sign, table numbers, putting the seating chart on the windows, pine cones for the center pieces... ahhh just so much. Plus we’re moving 6 days before I leave to fly home for the wedding. 🤦🏼‍♀️ Haha but we will get there!

    Our wedding is still 1 year away, so there's still lots to do. That being said, we have checked off a lot of the important/main stuff like:
    - Venue (Ceremony/Reception are at the same place AND they take care of food/booze)
    - DJ
    - Officiant
    - Photographer

    ...and in the next couple of months, I should also have the wedding dress picked out too!

    I have come so far, but I have loads to do, but I have just over a year to go.

    I have my ceremony and reception venue (same spot), that is all inclusive with chairs, tables, food, booze, basic decor. My dress, hair stylist, photographer and officiant are all confirmed. wedding favours are picked out. I have started collecting guest list addresses for my side and need to start getting from FH's side.

    I think I know which DJ service I'm gonna go with but still need to reach out. Most also do photobooths and decorative lighting which is a plus! My invites and Save the Dates are picked out, just need to order when the time comes. I also need florist, MUA, wedding party attire, cake decorator, and a bunch of small things once I get closer to the date.

    Yes, of course!
    I’m getting married at the Cambridge Mill, in Cambridge, Ontario. It’s owned by Pearle Hospitality, who own a few venues across southern Ontario. They are a little more pricey than average, but you pay to not worry about all the little things Smiley smile
    The only downside is that the closets hotel is a 10 minute drive away, I was really hoping to get it all in one place.

    I have most of the big items booked. ceremony hall, reception hall, DJ (who also is a coordinator), photographer, officiant. wedding party picked. dress bought. block of hotel rooms booked. FMIL has booked rehearsal dinner space.

    I have quotes from decorators. just need to book one. florist...I know who I am going with. just need to book. I didn't even search for one. I just used someone I knew, who does amazing arrangements.

    still trying to decide on a bridesmaid dress color (that's been a struggle and a half). and then my friend is designing invites/stationary. so I want to start working with her soon. so we can just take our time.

    22 days to go and less than 10 items left on my checklist. I feel organized, but I also still feel like I have a lot to do!

    I am still at the beginning stages of planning as I still have over a year and a half to go! But we have our venue booked, which is all inclusive, so ceremony, officiant, reception, food, alcohol, as well as chairs, tables, table settings and linens is all booked! I have also booked our photographer and videographer, as well as the reception DJ. I am trying to DIY all the decorations and flowers to save some money, so I have been on the hunt buying everything second hand, including votives, vases and mason jars, and I just scored some free wood to make cookies for the centre pieces.

    The next few items on are to-do list are getting me a dress, figuring out our bridal party, and deciding on suits, and bridesmaid dresses. I am going to be taking some time off planning, because as a graduate student, I have a lot to do over the next few months, so that takes priority!

    Ughhhhh so much to do yet!! We are just over a year out so there is still plenty of time though. We have the basics like: venue, photographer, food, officiant and I have drafted our Save The Dates.

    Right now I just want to get the booze people booked and the DJ for the social and wedding booked... and get my dress Smiley tongue

    I feel like it’s full of to-dos. Our wedding is 7 months away, and we have venue, photographer, officiant and my dress.. that’s about it lol. Although we already send invitations, because it’s a destination wedding. I still have a ton of decisions to make though lol
