October 2012 Weddings

Long time lurker, first time poster...but here are my checks!

Hi ladies! Let me start off by saying that I absolutely LOVE how friendly and wonderful you are to each other. I makes planning a wedding all the more enjoyable when you can connect with people who are expericing it as well :)

Second, I am getting married October 6th and I am SOOOOO excited! My fiance and I will be together 4 years as of July 6th. I can't imagine myself with anyone else!

Here we are...cheesing it up :)


Anyway, here are my checks!

Chuch
Reception space (which covers: food, alcohol, tables/chairs, linens, place settings, etc)
Florist
Photographer
DJ
Honeymoon
Hotel Block
STD/Invites
My Dress
BM dresses
Rings
Flower girl dress
Cake

I still have little things here and there (like a cake topper) and the fiance finally decided on a suit he likes, so that will be taken care of soon.

I'm seriously worried about the day getting here, then realizing I forgot something! Undecided

  • Welcome to the board!  I always tell new October brides that this is the best board on theknot!  I hardly post anywhere else. :)

    Your checks look good to me and it doesn't look like you are missing anything major.  If you are having a videographer, that might be something to get booked soon.  Also, are you going to hire a day of coordinator?  They will be able to help you with not worrying so much about forgetting stuff, especially close to the wedding date.  You still have 7 months to figure out all the little things, so don't worry about that too much. :)

    Totally agree with above post! You sound like you've got it all under control. We all worry about the day of even if we have a DOC (which I do have but still worry). :) Welcome... we love new knotties!

  • Welcome to the board! You're well on your way, and as PP mentioned, I think we will all be wondering what we forgot the day of!
    It doesn't have to be perfect to be everything I want!

  • Welcome! I completely agree, I think the ladies here are the best! Your checks look pretty good! The only other thing I could really think of besides the videographer that was already mentioned was transportation.

  • Transportation isn't a big issue as our church is 3 block from our reception space. Our reception space also provides us with a "day of" person to make sure things flow smoothly there. I'm a pretty laid back person, so I don't expect the day to be "perfect". I just know that as long as the day ends with us being married, I will be thrilled :)

    I actually also called yesterday to book a potential rehersal dinner site. I'm kind of an over achiever and just want to spend the last few months leading up to the wedding relaxing!

    Congratulations!!  :)

  • Hi!! I'm new to the October board too. I used to be in a different month but we changed the date, so here I am again! I haven't posted at all really yet in October, still trying to get a feel for it all again. Congrats and good luck! :-)
