We are sending are magnet save the dates out next week. We still need to book a florist and officiant for the ceremony. How are all my November brides coming along with their planning so far?

    We're November 11, so 5 months today and I just want the date to get here! We have all of our vendors booked, BM outfits, save the dates out, invites just need to be addressed and mailed (and of course, August needs to get here for that). We really just have little projects and have to figure out what the guys are wearing and we're ready to go! :)

    We are Nov.10th and I think we are in pretty good shape. We made a big payment to the venue this week (50% of estimated balance). All of our vendors are booked but we need to arrange meetings with several of them. The venue tasting is tentatively scheduled for mid-July. This week I scheduled our cake tasting for early August.  Will probably schedule a meeting with the florist for August as well. I haven't ordered the invitations yet, but we picked them out online. I'm was not planning to order them until after the tasting, due to the entree selections.

    Nov. 12

    Still need everything music (ceremony and reception) and to book the baker and florist we've selected. No one's pushed for deposits because the wedding's on a Monday.

    We did all the wording for our letterpress invitations, but I still have to mail them the ink drawing of the church that will go on the top. Then we can pick them up in like 2 weeks.

    Still also need all men's clothes and all women's accessories (shoes for me and bridesmaids, veil, etc.)

    Chuppah, glass for breaking, ketubah

    We only do wedding stuff on weekends and basically took the last weekend off from wedding planning. We're doing just fine.

    We're November 24th. We made our 50% payment to the venue a couple of weeks ago (ack, so much money!). Finalized the cake, took our engagement pictures, flowers and DJ are done. My bridesmaids just had me put together my invite list for my shower :) I'm getting really excited for that! I can't wait to see everyone.

    Other things just can't happen until the fall when the vendors want to meet with us

    I'm November 10th as well.

    I still have to get invites, have dress altered, get grooms tux, coordinate with MOH for her dress (only having 1 bm, thank God!), order cupcakes, order cake, order more bridal "goodies" and accessories, and find a hair dresser.

    Time is flying by tooooo fast....I'm nowhere near close to being done.
