    Photographer and officiant.  I tried emailing our potential officiant a few weeks ago and never heard back, so I guess calling is the next step. Photographer is going to be a tough one.  Its one of the few things I'm going to be picky about and there are so many options.  Also, I need to get FI to actually give me a guest list and help me figure out wedding party.  He's done exams next week, so after that....

    Ordering STDs and invites are next on my list. I have already received a sample from an Etsy seller, they are so cute and so "us".

    Edited: Had some down time at work so started on my wedding website Yay!
  • I'm taking my FI and my dad this weekend to look at some tuxes.  Other than that, not too much.

    Find a dress and sign a contract for the DJ. However, he needs to send it over before I can sign it.

    I plan on sending mine September-Octoberish. They say you should send them 6-9 months in advance :-) I'm not going any earlier since we don't have many OOT guests.

  • Nail down a guest list. Everyone has their separate lists with a general idea of number, but I've been putting off combining them because I'm afraid that it's going to end up with "oh, but it's just two more people." 

    I also am probably going to meet with a florist within the month and schedule our next premarital counseling session with my pastor (required, but I'd do it anyways).

  • Picking an officiant and e-pics =)
  • I NEED to get a DJ booked, I've been dragging my feet on this for too long! Wanted to get it nailed down by May, but that hasn't happened. So soon! Next thing to check off.

    Also I want to meet with a florist to see what flowers are in season for the wedding and schedule our e-photos with the photographer. Whoo!

  • I have to meet with some florists. I'm working on 10 million paper flowers for our ceremony and i might just keep going and do the centerpieces too. However, I want to first meet with the florist so that they can confirm my suspicions that doing it myself would be cheaper. Even though they are gorgeous real I can't justify dropping $$$ on flowers that are going to die a day or so after the event. =/ So yea for me its talk to florists and keep DIY

  • We are talking our engagement pics this weekend.  Next on my list is ordering my dress, getting bridesmaids together to get input on their dresses, and deciding what DIY projects I want to do.
