60 DAYS!!!!

Hello 4/21/2012 brides...we are at the 60 day mark...and the grind begins...it feels so exciting and nervous at the same time for the day to be 2 months away....that's eight weeks!!! Do you have a lot left to be done? Happy 60 days left!!!

Re: 60 DAYS!!!!

  • i know, it's crazy!! Still things to do though. 
  • I have so much left it's overwhelming. I can't even think about it. Good thing is I'm meeting with a DOC this Saturday. 

    I have my first fitting this Fri and I feel like a hippo. I'm so paranoid that I'll look like a mess!

    My FI keeps saying the same thing. I still fit in my regular clothes, so there shouldn't be that big of a problem, I'm hoping. I just haven't been exercising the past 3 months due to my 2nd job, so I haven't lost the weight I planned on. If only I could afford a personal trainer & personal chef, I'd be set!<div>
    </div><div>Thanks for your kind words. I need to slap myself in the face!</div>
  • It's crazy how fast the time went!! I don't feel like I have a lot left to do but I have a feeling in about 4 weeks, I'll really be freaking out trying to get last minute little stuff done!!!

    </div><div>My FI and I said the same thing!! We've been so busy with work . . .  We actually read the "Lose 20lbs in 30 days" book and we are going to try it starting in March. :-) We definitely don't plan on losing 20 pounds by any means but we figured it's an easy exercise regime (30mins a day) and eating a bit healthier never hurt. Plus, by the time the day gets here we will (hopefully) not be so self concious! I'm sure you will look great walking down the aisle no matter though! :)</div>
  • And YES! It feels like we have sooo mucuh to do!! We are DIY for almost everything. I keep breaking down into a day at a time because if I look at the whole thing I get overwhelmed. 

    I have a honeymoon question... are you all booking your honeymoon for the day after the wedding or a few days after? We can't decide still. . . 

    Good Luck everyone :)

    You haven't booked your honeymoon yet? We did it for the next day because we can only take 6 days. If I had more time off, then I probably would wait 1-2 days to recouperate.<div>
    </div><div>I want to do 30 min of exercise daily too, but even fitting that in is hard. I live home with my parents, so their presence makes it even more difficult. ::pulls hair out!::</div>

    I was at the 60 day mark yesterday!!  Crazy...and sooo exciting!  I'm finally getting info from my venue/coordinator...its weird - they're finally bothering me (not the other way around)!  lol 

    As far as the honeymoon goes, we're getting married in North Florida on Friday night, and leaving for Orlando on Saturday morning (about a 7 hr drive) since flights out of there were so much cheaper.  Our flight to Jamaica is early on Sunday.  So technically we're leaving 2 days after the wedding for our honeymoon, but really it's the day after.  :)

  • We are actually leaving the morning after!!! CANNOT WAIT FOR THE VACATION! I think we're more excited about it than the wedding...lol
  • we are getting married during the afternoon on the 21st and are heading off to Jamacia in the AM, flight leaves at 8am!!

  • We are leaving on Monday morning (getting married on Saturday).  Since we are getting married in CT but live in Boston, we can drive home, unpack things and pack for the honeymoon get ourselves together for the day and then leave Monday morning.  I would definitely book your honeymoon soon, cost of flights is just going to keep going up. 
  • Yay for the 60 day mark!! i have to say im right on time with everything..which is great because i didn't think i was gonna survive this wedding planning lol just minor things to get and im ready to party!!

    I think I might be the only one here doing their honeymoon differently...we're going on a cruise next January.  But we're also taking a road trip vacation down the Oregon and N. Cali coast to Mt. Shasta at the end of August, beginning of September so I guess we're kind of taking 2 honeymoons.  We just can't take any more time off work right after the wedding, so we're taking a couple days at a super romantic hotel and then returning home.  We're ok with it.  I personally don't think I could handle planning the wedding and honeymoon at the same time, I'd probably self destruct.  That's why future hubby is planning our road trip.  :)

  • We're leaving the week after b/c I've got a big event at work right after the wedding. I"m glad, though.
    When someone said 8 weeks, okay, that made me freak out a little, but I don't feel overwhelmed.  I think I'm just about ready to go, save for make up trial, getting the dress pressed, and buying just a few more gifts...that's unless something unforseen comes up, right?!
  • Just got the 2 month email too! After going through the checklist I actually feel pretty good about what I have done. 
  • Yay, 60 days left!!!

    I think we're in good shape, but now all the last minute stuff hits us.  I can't wait to be married, and for the party!

    We're getting married on Saturday and leaving for our honeymoon on Monday.
