6 weeks to go..what should I be doing?

Nutella, 18 January, 2013 at 21:59 Posted on Planning 0 13

Tommorow will be 6 weeks until our wedding - can't believe it's nearly here to be honest but that's another story..

OM's/Any others with wise words... what should/could I be doing at this stage? My plans for this weekend have been snowed off so I'm home all weekend and feel like I ought to do something other than twiddle my thumbs...

Dress - fittings arranged already

TOG - got a final meeting booked

Need to post BM dress to one of them so she can get it altered herself (I was supposed to give it her in person this weekend if it weren't for the bloody snow)

Table plan - the base is all done, just needs the names sticking onto it but I'm going to do that the weekend before I think or I'm worried I might have to change it

Venue details - was supposed to have meeting today, but snow struck so rearranged for next friday

Going to see florist next weekend

Hair and makeup trial all sorted, got my shoes and my jewellery all sorted too

OOS - nearly finished and I've got all the stuff ready to print it

Gifts - all sorted

What am I missing?!

    Hi Nutella! I'm wondering this too! I am at about the same point as you but still need to sort out make-up and gifts. It's scary how fast this month is going, i'm hoping by the end of Jan to be able to relax a bit!!

    ? Hi Carolanne, IIRC you're 2nd March too, so date twin! I'm hoping to have most stuff done, or at least meetings for things in diary by end of Jan too, although I don't want to leave myself with nothing to do at all or I'll overthink and wind myself up!

    Yes, 2nd March too. It'll soon be here,I was calm until Jan 1st when I went into a bit of a panic mode and kept questioning everything including dress, flowers, colour scheme, venue!! I think I went a bit crazy but am now feeling more rational, especially since getting all rsvp's back and having a better idea of final numbers.

    Transport home? Make a list of group photos ready for your TOG meeting? Are you wearing perfume, if so, have you bought some? Wrapping paper/gift bags/cards for your gifts? Make a list of thingd to pack for your honeymoon and make sure you have it all? Have the men all got cuff links and smart shoes, if not, start chasing them..they are men! You say your hen do was cancelled/rebooked, could you maybe book a meal out/cinema trip just as a way to chill out/get some time with friends (youre gonna be pretty busy soon).. Are you getting your engagement ring cleaned? For florist, have you made a list of exactly how much of what you need before you see them? Confirmed caked and catering yet?

    I'm just trying to think of things we've done/got to do...i'm sure theres more!

    Congratulations on your upcoming wedding. You must be very excited! How are your favors coming along? Are you taking a honeymoon right after? Consider what you will need for that. Thank you cards post-wedding, will you buy note cards or use a photo of you both and custom build? Use this time to start thinking about a beauty/health regime so that your skin glows on wedding day. Six weeks is a good amount of time to start a healthy detox which will have you looking your best on wedding day. Good luck!

    We get married 10 weeks today and I keep looking at my to-do list thinking I've missed something really obvious off!

    There's a few things I know I need to tie up like the registrar and sort out the cheese tower, and I'm still waiting for some things I've ordered to arrived but otherwise it feels we're mostly done! I do need to start packing things for the wedding but I need my suitcase for the hen do in a couple of weeks.
