    <div>We are having a fairly informal, rustic, fall theme.  FI loves the outdoors so we are trying to incorporate that as much as possible.  What about you?</div>

    Yay!
    First we got the big stuff out of the way - venue, music, flowers, dress, BM dresses, photog & video. That was the easy part. Now I have the little things left like invites, accessories & shoes, registry, first dance, vows etc. At first I thought the little things were going to be easy. I was so wrong :)

    This is similar to what we are going for. We have a great venue that's indoors but the decor looks like the outdoors. It has a wall fountain and live plants. We have an option to have our ceremony outside, which would be great. We'll see what the weather will be like on that day.

    <div>We don't have as much as you do thats for sure.  We have venue, dress, photo, cake.  Our venue does food, we picked the menu.  We finally met a DJ we liked so hopefully by the end of the weekend that contract is done. We are cake tasting tomorrow and the excitement of that has carried me well into the week.  You are you soooo right, the dress, venue and other big ticket items were SOOOO easy.  It's all the little things that start stacking up that overwhelm me.  </div>
