Re: Am I behind in my planning??
You have loads done and lads of time to do the rest. Book the make up artist next though so you get somebody you re happy with or comes recommended. I didn't decide on hair style till after my first fitting. You are doing fine - bet there's quite a few brides here with less done and no need to panic. The fact you have a list with so much ticked off already means you are plenty organised!
Re: Am I behind in my planning??
Don't panic! We're getting married in October and still have to:
Figure out what the H2B and Men are actually going to wear on the day, seeing as none of them seem to care "ah sure it'll all work out" - eh, love, we do have to buy things for ye.. Pick & buy rings Pick & buy wine (waiting until I have more € saved for June Bank Holiday offers) Decide on centrepieces and get them Contact band & DJ & give them a couple of things that we want & don't want Decide on gifts for the Mothers Finalize with Hotel as to what exactly is included in our package, buy/rent whatever isn't Get together with Mum & finalize cake decoration Pick and stick to a hair style Get second make-up trial Actually, buy the foundation I said I'd get after the first trial... Get dress altered Actually FIT into dress Do mass booklets (I got thick with it a few weeks ago & left it) Clear music with wedding singer & priest Clear mass booklet with the priest Do Pre-Nuptial enquiry Sort trees or lanterns or something for outside the church Find out if we can decorate the night before or that morning Find out if venue decor people are coming the night before or that morning Sort cars Sort arrangements for our son for that night Sort a timeline for the day Make my mind up with jewellery & stick to it Print aforementioned mass booklets Make new buttonholes because the glue was atrocious on the last ones Start buying stamps Do the final FINAL guestlist Pick readers (and double-check readings) Do a load of stupid little bits like get a nice pen for signing the book, buy a long-reach stapler, buy more card, tealight holders, floating candles. Convince BMs that I was NOT joking when I said I didn't want a hen. Plus all the normal everyday working/cooking/cleaning/Mammy-being that usually goes on. And probably a First Confession in there somewhere too, plus swimming & training for the little man and try to shift the rest of this weight so that the dress might actually zip up. Feel better? Ah, sure it'll all work out ![]() Re: Am I behind in my planning??
Don't worry - you've got loads done!
I'm getting married in September and I have all on candlequeens list still to do, along with a lot more like: h2b still hasn't asked his bestmen or groomsmen yet we havent picked or bought wedding rings yet havent booked honeymoon or even decided where we are going! We havent got any of the church certs yet for the prenup enquiry. I don't have a hairdresser booked or even decided on! Have to pick readers and readings and songs for church Have to pick out first dance I haveny got shoes or veil or jewellery yet There's so much more on the list that I'm actually starting to panic writing this so im gonna stop.... ![]() Re: Am I behind in my planning??
Thanks Girls.. think maybe it was realising that we were under the 6 mth mark kinda of freaked me out... n reading your lists I ve left a few things out so have to add them on to mine!

Re: Am I behind in my planning??
congrats on your engagement
I hope you have your dresses sorted, my advise is do one each week. that way you can be more relaxed. start looking at your invitations and readings now. that way you will know what you want. but its amazing how it all falls in to place in the end
Re: Am I behind in my planning??
You have loads done compared to me! We're getting married at end of Nov (got engaged at end of Jan this year). All we have done so far is this:
Booked venue Booked registrar Room decor Flowers Cake Dress (not bridesmaids though!) Guest list Registered intent to marry And thats all! We still have loads to do! To be honest we're not panicking though as we havent come across any supplier not available for our day yet. The advantage of getting married on a friday in November I suppose. We've promised ourselves that we'll book the band this week though. L [url=http://www.TickerFactory.com/]
