I'm planning a wedding for 150+ people in about three months.
Right now, there are 38 days left until my wedding.
Let me share my process with you.
Day 1:
Struggle to find a venue. CALL AND EMAIL ALL THE VENUES. Seriously. I called and emailed pretty much every venue in the immediate area. Then I waited...patiently (HAH!)
Day 2: Secure venue.
We chose The Publick House. The first picture is where the ceremony and reception will take place. The second is where the cocktail hour will be.


Day 3: Panic. Seriously.
The next days were spent:
- Making "will you be my bridesmaid?" cards for Danea, Alexis, Kristin and Alicia and sending said cards.
- Picking out bridesmaid dresses.

- They're from target.com and reasonable! The bridesmaids are also going to wear silver shoes and silver jewelry.
- Make/choose the invitations and RSVP cards. Alexis' husband was kind enough to print them for us.
- Sending invites!!
- Picking out items for the registry
- Going to the wedding tasting
- My dad and I went, as Ev is in Virginia, and happened to be underway.
- We chose Lemon Chicken, Vegetable Lasagna, and Salmon.
- Meet with the DJ
- assign Evan the task of picking out the music
- Meet with the florist- And be shocked with how much it costs to have flowers
- Buy my wedding dress.
- Get my dress hemmed.
- Drop my dress off for dry-cleaning.
- Attending 2/4 of our premarital counseling
- Oh, and picking our pastor.
Still to do:
- Have our detail appointment
- Make seating charts
- Call all guests who haven't responded
- Get an accurate food count.
- Create name markers for the tables
- Create a ceremony program
- Print thank you cards.
- Print table numbers
- Probably 2000 other things.
How did your wedding planning go? Was it big? Small? Just right?
