    Ahead of the game! 8 months out and all the vendors have been booked and paid for in full, my dress has been purchased and doesn't need alterations, save the dates mailed and all the decor was DIY and completed. There are still a few things to do but they all have to wait until the date is closer.

    I feel ahead of the game. We have most of our vendors selected with deposits, our paper goods are being designed and my dress is ordered. We are getting married in October

    Haha way too ahead of the game but I'm ok with this! Engaged June 2018, wedding January 4. 2020 . Booked venue in October 2018 and found my dress then too! Because of having had weight loss surgery and still losing I'll be buying it on my birthday February 16, 2019. Have photographer booked and doing engagement photos also on my birthday. Have talked to who I want as my caterer, found favorites on her menu, meeting and doing our tasting at the end of February. Booked my DJ last week. Know a good amount of chosen songs for the ceremony songs and reception. Decided on my bridesmaids dress colors a while ago (Bordeaux (designer color name basically burgundy)). Spoke on the phone the other day with woman who runs the linen rental company. Have the color scheme all set! Burgundy table clothes with sequin rose gold runners, blush napkins, white chair covers with blush bows on the back, blush table covers for buffet, DJ, cake table, and sign in table, and a sequin rose gold for our sweetheart table! Know what I'll be making for centerpieces, DIY wine bottle painted craft. Some good ideas on favors and table number cards. Have ceremony time start and reception start figured out. Basically all I need now is the cake! And have some good ideas on who to go to. I work full time as an engineer but basically I could be a wedding/event planner. Lol. Oh, and contacted hotels already to book rooms but they won't do it until April or May. I could have this wedding in a month at this rate. Oh lol and my MOH has already set dates for my shower and bachelorette weekend. What we're doing shes keeping a surprise. ..... anyone else an over planner like me? I figure what can it hurt!

    Ahead of the game. My mother is so amazing with taking care of all the details. She has been planning weddings for over 25 years

    Everyone says I'm ahead of the game, but for the past few months I've stopped a lot of the big vendor booking... so I'm feeling like I need to get back on the horse. Our wedding isn't until May 2020. We have the Ceremony/reception venue booked and paid for, and the officiant, caterer and photographer booked. I also have my dress picked out and paid for, I've started collecting items for my DIY centerpieces and ordered STD magnets. Now that I have it all typed out, I can see how much I've gotten done, but the list proceeding is so much longer and overwhelming.. haha.. I've sure you all know exactly how I feel!

    That's very true!! It can be easy to feel that way but you have a good amount of time left before the big day!
