My big day is Sept 14, and as I read you ladies post you all are on a roll with stuff and I feel as if I havent done anything and going a little crazy. I have lots of ideas, I have them some what sorted out. We have set a budget, pick our bridal party, I have an appt for the dress and we are going to look at reception venues in Dec. Issue 1 is I'm planning from across country, I live in IL but we're getting married in VA so I won't be able to check out anything until winter break. Have all those appts lined up. Secondly, I'm a doc student and school takes over my life!!! I just took my prelim exams about 3 weeks ago and I have been so tired from staying up till 4 am wedding stuff hasnt crossed my mind. Now I have this big presentation in DC this weekend, and I'm working on 2 publications plus starting my disseration. And I have a 7 month old!!! So I'm super behind on planning and I'm feeling so overwhelmed whew had to get that out!!! I'm just wondering how do you ladies find the time to plan, I feel like a walking zombie lol
