Stupid Mistakes

Thanks for advice! Will double check and keep list of all I have booked or have not! Since my wedding is only next year! I could forget something as well!

I am a very busy person on a regular basis, so I use the calendar on the phone for appointments. As soon as they are booked dates, times and locations are put into the phone calendar. When booking additional appointments I consult it to see that I am free and available. I think wedding planning can get confusing with the crazy amount of details and it helps to use tools to keeps us straight!

Thanks! I've gotten him a lot more involved lately and it has really helped in a lot of the confusion I was experiencing. Sometimes letting up a little bit of control can really help!

I think youre just over thinking everything and making mistakes. you want to make sure everything is perfect. maybe have someone like your FH double check things just in case!

I DO, have a day-of-coordinator and I should probably use her more. I guess this is what happens when you are way too type A and want to control everything; you just end up messing everything up.

This is exactly what I'm feeling.

If I'm not double booking something than I am triple checking everything like crazy! Honestly bless day-of-coordinators I don't know how they do it.

Is someone there that can help you?

Do you have a second set of eyes to run things by?

It could just be nerves.

I was double checking everything all the time just to make sure I didn't miss everything. I even had multiple calendars to make sure I didn't double book something!

View quoted message Thanks! I'm a Legal Assistant, at least half my day is reminding someone about upcoming deadlines. It just comes naturally now.

View quoted message I can't believe I didn't think of that. That's an awesome idea!

View quoted message Awwww thank you! I do feel like the actual day will be amazing after all this work.

It's probably just the stress. It might help to have someone with a bit more distance know about appointments and do a little proof reading. Maybe an organized bridesmaid who can send you a text or an email reminder!

View quoted message All I know is your venue is gorgeous and the food is phenomenal so you’re wedding will be fantastic!!

View quoted message Believe it or not, I actually do have a calendar And it's ironically enough the way I've been finding out about the double bookings.


I would agree the last month has a ton of appointments and we're it not for my day of coordinator I think I would've messed up a lot of stuff no one tells you how hard it is to make a timeline and confirm things.

Do you have a calendar?! FH and I have a family calendar we’ve set up on our phones where we enter our appointments, etc. And can see what the other person has going on!


This might just help keep everything organized! There’s a lot of appointments so I don’t blame you for getting dates mixed up!
