Hey date twin how are you?
I feel like I am planning in slow motion and I know time is just a ticking away and is not on my side. Just wondering what have you accomplished so far?
 Best Regards,Chablish

    Hey
    I'm good feel just like you.  Planning is going well. We have the church booked, should be putting deposit on the venue next week.  I think I have my dress chosen and my bridesmaids found a dress that they all liked, I have six of them in different sizes and heights(size 2-14 and 5'1"-5'11") they all look good in it too thank you lord.  We have a DJ booked  and that's about it.  Where are you in the planning?

    We picked a venue but we cant book it until  year in advance so im waiting on that. We booked Fi's must have photo booth. I pretty much narrowed my dress down to 2 or 3 I know the style I want but im not sure when exactly i'll be ready to try dresses on I don't want to rush and find something else later. I pretty much picked my bridesmaids but I havent mentioned it to them only my MOH. Colors are set in stone I was debating between purple or pink and gray but my mom and planner/ cousin picked purple when they start buying napkins and a few other things. So what colors did you decide?

    We got lucky when it came to colors blue is my favorite color and also happens to be his frat color(he's a Phi Beta Sigma) so no fights or anything there.  We are using silver/gray and then ivory and the pop of bright color will be from the flowers.  I think the purple and gray will look great their are some great color palettes on The perfect Palette blog that use gray with purple and/or blue. Yeah I went ahead and started looking at dresses early more to decide on a style I had in my head that I wanted one style and ended up picking another.  I have it narrowed down to 2 but one of them is my standout favorite.  Right now I'm trying to get ideas for blue shoes because since i'm almost 5'10" I need to figure that out before I order my dress because if I get the one I'm thinking of I have to order it with extra length for it to be long enough
