Well, we're almost all under 4 months, and some of us getting close to 3 months away! Crazy! Just thought I'd see where everyone's at with their planning :-)
I've been getting pretty overwhelmed but I'm starting to calm down again, haha. We have most of our addresses, just waiting on a few. Our guest list is now over 300. Luckily we are 99% sure a good number of them aren't coming because they live out of town and we doubt they'd make the trip. Our venue doesn't hold 300 people! It was probably stupid to keep adding but.. it is what it is I guess haha.
We asked our friend to be our officiant but then I was having second thoughts. I've been doing a large amount of the work myself. I started thinking about having to write the entire ceremony and I just didn't want to do it. I talked to FI about hiring a "real" officiant to make it easier on me and asking our friend to do a reading or be an usher instead. I ultimately decided he can do the ceremony, but I am NOT writing it! Not sure who will, but it won't be me!
We're trying to figure out our honeymoon. FI was having issues with his work because they have blackout dates for vacation that we thought started the week after the wedding. Turns out they start the week after that, yay! So now we can go when we want, we just have NO clue where. I think we will meet with a travel agent to help us narrow it down.
We've been looking at wedding bands. My engagement ring is SO difficult! It's a curved band so nothing in the stores works with it. I'm leaning toward something custom but we will see!
Oh and we booked our hotel block! Yay!
Things we need to do: finalize invitation wording so we can get them all printed, then put them all together. Figure out programs. Figure out accessories. Finalize bouquets/boutonnieres. Finalize and order suits. Tons of other random little things. AHH there's so much to do, lol.
If you read all this, you're awesome haha. I guess I just need to ramble a bit :-)
