So, as of the 30th, we are 5 months away from the big day. My dress is bought, I found shoes(so cute!), second payment to the venue has been made, our catering deposit is done, our cake ideas have been given to our "designer". I'm DIYing all our centerpieces( I will NEVER recommend this...ever again, lol), flowers are done and half of that has been paid off. EVERYONE is telling me I am so far ahead of the game, yet, I feel like I'm behind.
My vent/rant: *which I will more than happily accept advice on* I am having issues with Bridesmaids dresses. I have a MOH, and a BM. My BM and I have been dress shopping as my MOH has just moved, and started back at school, so our schedules haven't allowed for a lot of shopping around. Every single dress my BM has tried on, she doesn't like. I'm to the point now where I want to be "that bride" and say you know, you are wearing this, end of story. I'm frustrated with this portion of wedded bliss...
Second problem, a DJ! I never imagined this would be as difficult as it's becoming. I didn't budget well for it, so finding one under $700 has been ridiculous, not to mention someone willing to let us play exactly what we want played. We are tossing around the idea of an IPAD/IPOD wedding, but our venue said this was a bad idea. Suggestions??
Anyway, TIA for anyone that reads this. I really just needed to get this off my chest, as the FI can't bear to listen to me anymore.
