That is really cheap! I will have to look into that as well, there have to be some apple orchards around here were I can get a lot of them for a good price.

GrayceandDanger · August 2012

WOW!! Maybe I need to get a move on. I have Venue and photographer booked.

Doing A LOT of DIY including almost all homebrew beer (we will have a few standard kegs for those bud light/coors drinkers). Brewed the first 10 gallons this week- it's a beer that will better as it ages over a year.

shannie11 · August 2012

We have been kind of at a standstill. I have a photographer, venue, DJ, uplighting and photobooth. I have been looking at makeup artists. I contacted one that I really want but she does not book until May of next year for October weddings. I am going to have her do my engagement pictures makeup though this October just to make sure I like it. I don't plan on dress shopping until October either.

sloaner09 · August 2012

Church booked

Reception venue booked

DJ booked

Photographer will be decided tomorrow

brooch boquet about 75% done

Invitation suite 50% designed

Guest list almost finalized

Our reception venue includes the cake, so no hiring needed there.

Not dress shopping until December as I am losing weight and also can't get the people I really want to be there together until then.

lconoran · August 2012

Venue- includes cake
DJ
Photog
STD's
Hotel/shuttles for guests
MOH/BM asked (only attendants we're having)

Right now we're focusing on a ceremony location since our venue doesn't have any usable outdoor space and we really want to have it outside if possible. But taking everything else pretty slow and steady. Oh yeah and Saving! Saving! Saving!

wrigleyville · August 2012

Ceremony/reception venues booked
Photographer booked
STDs picked out but not ordered
Guest list finalized

Currently putting together some Pinterest boards with cake, dress, invitation, and floral/decor ideas. We aren't doing much DIY. I don't need that kind of stress.

M&MJK · August 2012

Reception hall booked

My dress is purchased

Colors chosen

Attendants chosen and asked

List nearly finalized

That's what we have done. My FI and I went to one bridal show and plan to attend another next month. We have done a lot of talking/dreaming/web surfing about cakes, invitations, honeymoons, flowers, and decor. We are not worrying about favors.
