So my ceremony is at 5pm and I've been trying to get a rough timeline together and have no idea where to begin...so what does your timeline look like so far?

    ...By timeline, I thought you meant the 4 page, ultra-detailed spreadsheet I've begun creatingfor the two days before, day of, and day after. It's going to be a one-stop list of where everyone needs to be and when, contact info, list of items to bring (i.e. to the reception site the day before), etc., etc.

    I'm the epitome of type A. This will be my masterpiece! :) Happy to share with anyone who might be interested...

    One thing one of the girls on here told me, she was a hair stylist I think, was that to take a shower the night before. Your hair needs to be completely dry for styling. When I get home I have a detailed one I have been working on I'll post too.

    I would love to see others as well to see what I forgot.

    I don't know how you ladies talking about no showers day of are going to get by! No offense meant but I can't wake up without one and I just feel dirty. Maybe I'm weird! I don't plan on washing my hair I know how to not get it wet but I will have a clean body! My underarms and legs will be cleanly shaven lol. I plan on washing my hair and doing it somehow up myself for the rehearsal so I have day old hair. The dress I'm wearing needs an updo so ill probably just curl the ends and pin it up even if I just use a clip. I won't spray it though. I have always went to my stylist with clean hair though and she hasn't ever had a problem with doing my hair.

    I'm pretty sure they just meant not to wash your hair on the day of so it is completely dry and can be properly styled...

    Yea, I just heard from one of the girls on here not to wash it day of. I know what you mean about showering. I am a huge morning shower person. I guess I will see if I really feel icky or not. I will definitely want one by the end of the night though...haha

    Yea, I just heard from one of the girls on here not to wash it day of and then re-confirmed as I have been talking to hair stylists for the wedding. They have all said in order for them to do the curls I will need to have my hair washed the night before and completely dry before they come to do my hair.

    My hair is pretty coarse and thick. It usually holds curl pretty well. I'm concerned about it looking greasy at the wedding, which happens if I don't shower every morning. I'll talk to my stylist and see what she recommends...


    As far as a timeline, I'm dreading that part, so I haven't even bothered yet. soon I probably should.
