Ive just sat and wrote a list of things to arrange over the next few months and OMG i didnt realise how much was left to do! I thought i was really organised with the planning and I have booked pretty much everything but still with second appointments and payments dates to reach I still have loads!

Alot of it are things i need to leave closer to time anyway like order of service once ive confirmed readings etc and table plans...

I wont give you a long list but here are the things i need to do first on my list!

1. Arrange make up.

2. get lingerie and jewellery

3.Decide on centre pieces (prooving a hard task for me!!)

4. Write the invites and send

5. BM shoes and hair accesories

6. Find supplier for rest of stationary

    Hi Sherrie

    Thank so much! I do have this image saved with your site on that i keep finding myself go back too, I think you may have sent me as I cant find it on your site at the moment. Is this something you hire out? My colour scheme is a burgudy/wine colour and white but my bridal bouquet will have some lighter shades in too if you have anything you think may suit. Thanks.

    Mel

    I can make them for you and send mail order or we can deliver & set up for you. Where is your venue?

    I can do any colour scheme on amy of my designs or design something based on a previous one in your colours. There are lots here in my albums a lot of them are in situ at the venues so give you a better idea of size on the table etc.:

    Just had a look at my very basic spreadsheet and realised that I haven't done loads that I wanted to in December. So have re written list and given H2B some more tasks that he's more than happy to deal with - wonderful!

    His tasks include:

    Sort garden games for reception

    Organise remembrance candles for church

    Sort remembrance photos for reception

    Ask his Mum to be witness

    Ask his Dad to do reading

    So my list is shorter for this month - yay! Although am now thinking I ought to sort hair and make up a bit quicker than I thought as so many of you have mentioned it!
