April 2015 Weddings

Sh*t just got real!

Have you all ever had that moment where this all became VERY real? I had my first one when we got the mock-ups of our invitations with our actual names, date, etc. on them. Holy crap i'm getting married! But I had a total OMG moment last night when I booked my next dentist appointment six months away... in April. So close and there's so much to do!

  • We just sent out our first round of invites (we are having a destination wedding). It is crazy to think we have less than 6 months left!!!

  • My "real" moment hit when we got our save the dates and sent them out! I'm sure there will be many more of these moments but that was one where I was like WOW this is really happening!

  • I get real moments in small bits, like driving down the road and our first dance song comes on and I start balling like a baby
  • Ditto, I just got an email today for an invitation to our venues group tasting on Nov 11th. Then in Dec we meet with a wedding coordinator that is with our venue. Ahhh!

  • I had that moment yesterday, we had our first pre-martial counseling with our pastor. It really hit me, wow this is happening! (Been engaged since 1/1/2012) It is FINALLY starting to feel real!

  • Our OMG moment was our first meeting with the venue people in October.  We've been planning the wedding for a while, and have been gradually saving and planning little thing here and there.  But being in the actual venue, talking about the ceremony and how things are gonna go, made everything feel much more real!!!

  • Now that we are in the double digits, its getting REALLY REAL!
  • Less then two weeks til I am in double digits.. AHH
  • My OMG moment came the moment I walked into the chapel where I'm getting married.  I'm doing a destination wedding, so its not something I drive by or have been to.  I did a trip out to see it, and when I walked in... it was like... WOW... I'm going to be standing there getting married in a few months!

    Now, its only 100 days away!

  • 61 days and the invites went out two days ago. It feels REALLY real now.
  • @diamondfan yep its happening FAST!  47 days left for my fiance and I !!!!!! I feel like there are still a few little things to do still but for the most part we are ready! We still have yet to receive a hug chunk of RSVP's and my deadline is March 1st. We will probably have to track down a lot of guest responses next week lol
  • My deadline is tomorrow and we are at about 60%!  Glad I built in the extra time to harrass people!
  • I just started getting RSVP's back and I sent my invites out this past week.

  • 11 rsvps back out of....70 something? lol i keep getting people texting/calling asking if they have to mail the rsvp card back...really now?

  • @hi_imkrista same here. They are doing it online so I ask them to please send in the card. It is so much easier to keep track of. We have about 20% of our invites in with a deadline of March 14. But hey my parents haven't even RSVP'd yet ( invitation wise) lol
  • I think we have most of our detail stuff done.  Just gotta work on the seating arrangements and timelines for the bridal party and the vendors.   Had my makeup trial last night, and got rave reviews on it - I just have to deal with the fact that it's more makeup than I ever wear, lol.
