July 2010 Brides - How's the Planning Going?

[wemkulaf]

WOW 3 weeks away before we leave for Jamaica. I am pretty much done with everything. Just have to finish our playlist and do my final dress fitting on July 10. And of course pack, but I won't start that until a week before we leave.

This is our month ladies...let's enjoy it!!! Three major things left on my To-Do List: (1) Figure out how I am going to wear my hair that day, (2) Make my DIY wedding programs and (3) Write my vows!

3 weeks from today will be my wedding day! I honestly don't know where the time went. I need to send my WC a long email summarizing all that we want with changes we made from our initial proposal. Plus, I will soon have to make final comfirmations with Photog, airport transfers, DJ Playlist etc. I'm trying to stay focused and not come up with any new ideas/projects.

 

I always watch bride shows and heard of horror stories of people waiting until the last minute to get major stuff done. It wasn't until this week that I ordered my hair flower, table numbers, seating chart. The vendors are so great that they got the stuff to me in days and I'm happy about that! I just found someone to create a beautiful seating chart poster. I tried to work on DIY escort cards and hated them. Glad I didn't wait until the end or I would have been stressing over it.

 

I would like to get as much done next week as possible so there's not too much of a frenzy at the end.

 

My bridal shower( or should I say Jack and Jill shower/bon voyage party) is tomorrow. Looking forward to seeing family and friends, especially those who won't be traveling with us for our wedding.

 

Good luck to the ladies who are getting married in the next few days!

 

By the way... we had our legal day two days ago. It was nice and simple with three witnesses.

Oooohh cool! You're wedding is the day after mine! I still haven;t decided how I want to wear my hair also?!

Good luck to all my fellow July brides. Our wedding was yesterday, and it was wonderful! Everyone had a great time. I'm so glad I had a destination wedding. I couldn't imagine it any other way. My only complaint is that the week has gone by way too fast! We leave tomorrow for home. Good luck with your final planning!

Well...we're heading to Punta Cana in just a few short hours! Can't believe it's here! I'll be sure to post a review when we get back! HAPPY PLANNING!

Congrats Mrs.!! I'm so happy that you had a wonderful time. Enjoy what's left of your honeymoon. Please share pics/review after you're all rested up.

Today was our legal day and we're officially married. I really tried my best to keep it casual but it's starting to set in. We had to exchange rings (my FI gave me my e-ring and I gave him a ring he normally wears on his right hand). Now we just have to finish packing, pick up the place cards, and my final dress fitting is Friday! We leave Sunday!!
