Question for all June Brides

Shanicenicole

I am new to this board, but my wedding is June 15th. I have all my major things done (Dress, venues, caterer), but I have a lot of little things left to cross off the list. Since we're now in 2013 I feel like I need to be actively working on everything! Just wondering what you ladies are focusing on getting done this month?

Things I have done are: dress, veil, jewelry and we have a venue booked.  I have one hotel reserved with a block of rooms

Things I'm doing this month: booking florist, photographer, baker and DJ (hopefully this weekend..i've been in contact with some but wanted to wait for the bridal faire).  Looking for a priest/minister.  We have our menu tasting/planning next weekend and plan to book our other hotel with a block of rooms.

Feb: bridemaid dresses & ordering invitations.

March: menswear decisions; sending invites

Things I need to decide on: centerpieces, table cards, escort cards (our original plan got discontinued), shoes, and make-up artist. Once I have a bakery I need to schedule cake tasting; and we still need to decide on our honeymoon.

So much to do!  But its getting fun now, so I am excited.

For January we are picking out and ordering invitations.  We are also deciding on tuxes and a limo.  We pretty much need to do all the detail stuff too, like my accessories, shoes.

We have been engaged for over a year, so we've got most of the major things done. Things that are remaining are attire for my bridesmaids, attire for FI and his groomsmen, all the smaller items such as guest book, card box, votive candles for centerpieces. Oh, and invitations.

I would definitely encourage getting bridesmaids dresses chosen sooner rather than later. I just got our order put in earlier this week, and we have an expected ship date of April 7-14. By the time they all get in for fittings/alterations, we won't have a ton of wiggle room.

Sytiria

We're twin dates!! I have most of the major things done, dress, veil, tuxedos, invitations, venue, florist, baker, photographer, caterer, hotel room block, flower girl dress, DOC, hair and makeup person.

January priorities: 
Meet with dress alterations shops for estimates
Finalize Bridesmaids dresses
Order FH ring
Select and purchase accessories

February priorities:
Submit invitations to calligrapher
