    We.. well actually I (not a great deal of input from OH yet, he's happy for me to do what I want) have decided not to do save the dates, everyone knows what date it is anyway as its on facebook but will be sending invites at the end of September as we have so many people flying and want to give them time to book and get cheap flights.

I have booked my church and paid a deposit for my venue but that's it, and I actually want to change my venue now. I'm so unorganised!!!!! I've found my dress and the style of bridesmaids dresses I want and oh has chosen the suits but nothing ordered or paid for yet!! Best get off here and start planning.........

    Wow, there are so many more of us now, and so many fellow 22 June brides! We're going to be flooding hitched with our reports next July! We only just sent out our save the dates a couple weeks ago. My sister finally picked the colour for the bridesmaids dresses, and she's ordering them this week (from an American shop), and we're just looking into crèche services now.

    How’s the planning going everyone?

    So far we’ve booked the church, rings, venue, entertainment for day and evening, flowers, dress, BM dresses, suits, and cake. I still have to make invites, buy shoes and jewellery, book a MUA and hairdresser.

    Is there anything else that I’ve missed out that someone else has done – worried will forget something off my to do list.

    Hi Krissy

    If you are still looking for a photographer I might be able to help? I have a special offer at the moment £500 for all photos on CD.

    I am in the hitched suppliers directory.

    Good luck

I have my favours just need to put them together. I have photographer and VOG booked. Cars, toast master and string quartet booked.

    Date Triplets! I joined Hitched in a wave of post engagement excitment about a year ago when I first got engaged, then promptly forgot about it until a friend told me about it again last night so I thought I would come on and look for fellow June 2013 brides. I am excited to find other people getting married on the same day as me! Because I have already been engaged for around a year so I have most of the major things done. I have my church and venue, car, photographer, evening band and florest all booked plus I have my dress, veil and shoes already. I still need to do all my stationary though, except for the place names which I have made a start on. The things I am waiting on are the things which h2b needs to have some imput in such as the invitations, which he is working on (very slowly) every weekend, and the honeymoon (we did have a destination picked but he changed his mind). I just wish June next year would hurry up and get here to be honest Smiley winking

    Hi all,

    I've just changed my wedding date so I am now officially a June bride Smiley smile

    I've booked the Church/Venue/DJ and photographer.

    We're planning on going for a dusky pink colour theme and my OH had found suits thats he's planning to hire from Burton.

    I've booked the Bantams bar at Bradford city for my venue and I'm planning to have a buffet (with help of lots of people of course.) We're expecting between 130-150 guests therefore we couldnt afford a sit down meal so the buffet seemed like a better idea for us.

    That's all I've planned so far , I can't wait though Smiley smile

    Another June 13th bride!!

    Venue and registrar booked, photographer sorted and ordered my dress...................and thats about it! My sister is doing the invites (we haven't done Save the Date cards), and been looking for bridesmaid dresses. I've been quite relaxed about everything, my parents on the other hand are panicking that time is running out!

    Hello Smiley smile
    i've been on hitched a while, mainly lurking so have only just joined this thread.

    I'm a June 29th, which seems to be very popular !

    So far we have the venue done, as were having a humanist ceremony in tmy grandfathers garden. Got the catering sorted, sent out the ave the dates. I also have my dress and Mr Firefairy has his suit. Wedding rings have been made and are waiting to be picked up when we go to visit our parents at christmas, and we will also have our cake samples to try then too We also just this week booked the reg office for the legal part a few days before the main ceremony.

    Were not having photographers and our friend is doing the DJing, so no worried there. Also no bridesmaids, so now issues there either

    looking forward to hearing everyone elses plans as we get closer Smiley smile

    I'm just no good at dealing with the 'little stuff' at the moment! I couldn't care less what invitations/centrepieces/bridesmaid dresses we have etc!

    Got church, venue & photographer booked, and now I'm sitting back for a while - I have delegated all the other jobs to my sisters who have a much finer eye for detail than me. Need to start keeping an eye out for wedding rings though, although I think I'm going to have to get one made to fit my engagement ring, which is a hassle! Can anyone reccommend a good reasonably-priced place to get wedding rings made? Am London-based.

    The one thing I do want to sort soon is our honeymoon. Where is everyone going and who did you book with?

    Thought I'd come and say "hullo" ...and panic when I see how organised you all are!!

    Apparently it's 219days til the day (8th June) so looks like I'd better pull my finger out + start making plans ?

    Everyone keeps telling me I'm too organised, everything is booked or ordered apart from men's suit hire. Day invites are out (we have a lot of people flying in and didn't want to do save the dates), tonight I finished making the evening invites, have made pace cards just need to write in names and am halfway through making wine glass charms as favours, I'm not going to have anything left to do soon!!

    We are also sending ours out February. OH's Best mate got married 2nd June this year and we are getting married 1st June next year so I have used their lead as a base for me ?.

    Their invites went out in February with an April RSVP.

    Hi everyone

    We've had a productive few weeks and the following are now sorted:

    Venue; bridesmaids' dresses; cake; DJ; flowers; my dress. I think that's most of the main stuff - photographer is TBC - so I can focus on the smaller details a bit more now

    Hi! American bride getting married on 20 June 2013 at Lympne Castle! Smiley smile

    Have sent out our Save the Date cards, booked our photographer and videographer. Got my dress and bridesmaid dresses too! As soon as my fiance gets back in the US (for 3 months) we will work on our DIY invitations and get those sent out as well!

    Still looking for a DJ, flowers (DIY flowers and centrepieces), and cake (but am thinking M&S). What else am I missing?!?! Ahh!!
