  • Sounds like you have lots of major checks out of the way. Do you have an officiant? Also what about a florist?

    I just asked this last week ! Everybodys advice was to start on the paper stuff first, like invites, tags, labels, table numbers, maybe start your program...if you are doing any of this stuff. I'm working on invites now and table numbers. Then I'm going to move to chair signs and "I DO" letters for the cake table. Then I'm going from there. As for other stuff...like Ro said what about florist ?, Officant ?, videographer ?..hth this all I can about for now..oh...DJ ?

  • @ Ro. Yep I have officiant, but I need to work on florists.. Thanks..

    @ msbdumas as I think about it, I think I do remember this post, and I probably commented on it. LOL. Oops. Looks like we will be working on the same projects at the same time. I think i will start on invites. I have an idea about table numbers but I have to wait until Aug/sept to take engagement photos, we were going to incorporate those pictures with the table numbers.. And yep, FI already talk to the DJ.. I just want to go to the craft store and start doing stuff.  LOL.. SMH..

    Thanks sistahs..

    I would secure your musicians, videographer, and officiant next (anything that could have another wedding possibly book it , I would do first)
