8 months! *rambling*

in Minnesota-Minneapolis and St. Paul
I almost threw up this morning when I realized I have a little under 8 months until the wedding day! There is still so much to do!

We have both venues booked (church and PEC), which does a ton of the stuff and lures me into a false sense of accomplishment and contentment. They do the food and dj. IL are taking care of the alcohol. We have our photographer. I have my dress. The bridesmaids dresses are ordered and FI picked out his tux.

Still need STD, invites, cake, centerpieces, flowers, officiant, favors (if we do them), church decorations, hair and make up, wedding license info, passports, honeymoon, dress fittings, etc. 

Time to get scootin!

    You are way further ahead of the game than me! I only have my ceremony and reception site... That includes the catering. And I have a dress... so I have a lot to do... I just can't find the motivation to get it done. I figure once I am done with this class I am in right now I will try to get the next big things done.

    My wedding is in less than 3 weeks... and I still don't have done most of the stuff from the 8month checklist.  You'll be fine.  Things will get done. Things that don't get done don't matter anyway :)

    Oh man - when you start listing the things, I am almost exactly in you same boat.  Went for a walk today for lunch with my mom - its amazing when you start talking about all the things that need to get done how frantic you get!!

    Blah I know what you mean! I freaked out the other day when I realized I'm at a little over 10 months. I know that's ridiculous because it's a lot of time and I already have a TON done, but I've been engaged 18 months already and so far I've had time to do stuff at my leisure when I was ready and when the urge striked me. I went into a bit of a panic mode realizing I'm going to have to kick my butt into gear here pretty soon!

    I'm at just under 6 months and I still have to do most of the same stuff you've got on your list.  Don't worry about it and tackle things one at a time.  Even if you only do a couple things a month, you'll have plenty of time.
