10 weeks out - what else should I be doing?!

in Nevada-Las Vegas

Our wedding is 10 weeks today! Exciting!

The main things are done:

Ceremony (Wynn) - booked and paid for, wordings chosen; Flowers/décor (Wynn) - booked and paid for; Reception (Maggianos) - booked, awaiting final guest count before we pay. Menu is chosen; HMU (Harmony) - booked; Extra photography at Wynn - booked; Favours - personalized chips being shipped, Wynn players cards to buy when we are there; Guest book - bought a Vegas poster for people to sign; Dress/Shoes - purchased; Bridesmaids dresses - purchased; Suits - purchased

This is what I'm thinking needs doing:

  • Choose readings and who does them
  • Order of Service/Wedding Program
  • Playlist for dancing at Maggianos; buy iPod to put music on
  • Menus for the tables
  • Table plan/place names/table names
  • Decide on any table/room decoration at Maggianos - I think we will keep this quite minimal
  • Guest transportation to Wynn from MGM (where the majority of guests are staying)
  • After party bar/club
  • Bridal party/parents presents

Is there anything else big that I am missing?!

    Are you doing a cake?  Or are you using the desserts from Maggiano's?  You can definitely do your own menus for the tables but Maggiano's does create a personalized stand-up menu with your names on it for each table.  If you're OK with that, that's one less thing you need to worry about. :)

    Ooh didn't know Maggianos did menus for us - we will probably go with them. And yes, we are having the dessert table instead of a cake. I just think the cake will go to waste after all the food. MissHolly - not doing a garter toss. We're from the UK and it's not really done here, think our guests would be confused!!

    Do you have your wedding rings purchased yet?  And don't forget to get your marriage license when you get to Vegas!  You can pre-apply online.

    Yep, our hotel rooms are booked! Everyone else is booking their own, it was just easier with coming from the UK as flight/hotel packages are generally cheaper.

    We actually went and had a chat about our wedding rings yesterday with the jeweler who did my engagement ring, so just waiting on a quote for that.

    Is the online license application from 60 days ahead? Then we can do that in just over a week :-)
