I thought it’d be a great idea to check in and give some
updates on our wedding this coming October.
We got a pretty good start a while back and already had our
ceremony and reception site, photographer and wedding rings well over a
year in advance. We also got lucky as Luke’s mom is a horticulturist and will
handle our flowers, we just have to pick them out still.
Now that it’s less than 9 months before the big day, we’re
in the progress of picking our caterer and selecting outfits for the bridal
party. It’s all coming together rather well, I still can’t help but panic every
now and then. I am glad wedding season is starting early for me this year with
a beautiful wedding in February.
I do have one beef, though, and that is vendors not getting
back to me within 24 hours. Often, not even 48! As a wedding vendor myself I
find it so important to respond to potential clients within 24 hours, often
less than that. Being a bride, I know what a stressful time this can be and I
want at least the photography part of their day to be easy as pie. I guess not
all vendors share this belief. If I have to e-mail or call you twice and still
don’t get a response, you better hope I *really* want you, or else I am
moving on. It’s just a frustrating part of planning a wedding.
Apart from the above, really everything else is going great.
I have a DIY day planned with a couple ladies early February and hope to get
most of the decorations done that day. I am in the final stages of designing
the invites (Save the Dates went out a while back due to some guests living overseas),
my dress has been ordered and we’re trying to decide where to go for our
honeymoon – all inclusive please!
I promise to share exact details of everything after the
wedding – including photos, of course!
