Double Digits ( 99 ) !

Brooke, on August 1, 2019 at 8:13 AM Posted in Community Conversations 0 20

FINALLY!! I have been counting down since 352 days and we are now in double digits! 99 days left until I marry my best friend.

I have most vendors secured (luckily), but thinking there are SO many more things to be done!

Where are y'all in your planning process? Any big items I might be forgetting? Any small things I might forget?

    Welcome to the double digits! Time goes so much faster on this side (IMO).
    All of our vendors were booked by the time that we got into the double digits, now it’s just dialing everything in. We are going to do a venue tour with a photographer next Friday & select the spots for our pics. Finishing up some DIY stuff.

    Such an awesome milestone...things will start speeding up for you now. As you progress, there will be so many little things that pop up, so just make sure you save money for it all lol.

    That's amazing! Remember to relax and take breaks from planning, especially as it's crunch time now

    That’s so exciting you’ve been waiting so long! The months go by quick. I have 55 days to go and I feel absolutely sick to my stomach from the stress.
    I have my vendors, I have my outfit, I have invites sent out, I have half my diy projects done.
    FH needs to pick his shoes, we need our RSVPs back so we can give a final guest count for food, we might need additional staff and the other half of my diy projects are NOT done. Holy cow I feel so far behind.

    Hey! Another date twin, we are 99 days out today too!! We have all of the major things done, venue, photographer, cake, hair and makeup, DJ and we just picked up our rings yesterday (can't wait to wear them!). We actually sent out our invitations a few weeks ago since most guests are coming from out of town and will need to book flights and hotel. We already have most of the RSVPs back. There are a few small things that need to be done like guest book, place cards, souvenirs, and I need to get my dress tailored still. So, I'm there with you, so excited!

    That's awesome! I live just north of the outer banks (I'm in virginia beach) and was thinking of having our wedding there, but decided that since it was November that a beach wedding might be a little chilly

    That's an exciting milestone! It goes quick...we're at 43 days! Most of our big stuff is done but now it's making sure we have all the centerpiece pieces together (we set them up so we knew we had every things), making sure all the smaller stuff like guest book, cake topper, crystal flutes etc are all together. I have found that having a box with things like scissors, strings, matches, zip ties (for the flowers to attach to the arbor) and super glue etc has been a huge saving grace! You never know what you might need once you start setting up!

    We are 1 week away!


    Don't forget about bringing tape to the reception and have someone who is in charge of taping cards to gifts so they don't fall off.

    Make sure you schedule time for you and your fiancé to use the restroom. Even if you schedule it for 7:00-7:10 and need to go sooner or later than that, it's 10 minutes of wiggle room you'll have.

    Take time to breathe and be with each other. FH and I are going out to breakfast the morning of the wedding with just his parents (my parents were invited but they said they'll be busy with last minute stuff)

    No matter what happens, even if everything goes wrong, you two getting married is the ultimate goal


    HAVE FUN!
