11 weeks to go...
Jan. 18th, 2010 10:31 amSo, maybe it's my anxiety disorder getting to me (ya think?) or maybe this is normal, but I'm starting to freak out just a little about wedding preparations. I need a list. Lists are like crack to me.
Events:
Engagement Party
Family Meet and Greet
Flowergirl afternoon tea a chance for the little girls to meet each other and also to be used a free child labour to decorate the bubble blowers that they'll be handing out
-buy craft paints/glitter
-shop for baking ingrediants
-bake scones and other things
Hens Afternoon English Country Garden Party with cucumber sandwiches, scones, Pimms and croquet. Luckily I have teh awesome bridesmaids who will do most of the planning for this!
-buy/hire croquet set
-try to find a small marquee
-check out op shops for tea cups/saucers/platters etc
Bridesmaid Day Frivolous indulgent dayspa visit followed by crepes and films on the Saturday before the wedding
-Save up some cash!
Rehearsal
-Get readings to the people doing them
-hunt for the white Phaedra material and assess whether it's still good, otherwise buy some calico
-buy extension cords
-get ipod fixed or buy another one
-ask MUCAAS/Ompniprop members not in the bridal party if they'd mind packing up after the wedding
-get wedding dress into dressing room
WEDDING
-Get in contact with florist in February and confirm flowers
-Touch base with hair/make-up lady and make sure she knows where she is going
Reception
-Organise hire of tablecloths
-Contact caterers and organise walkthrough
-Organise wine and beer (!!)
-Pick a bridal song
-Learn to dance
-Finalise music
-Sit down with
jpom40 and knock up a running sheet
Honeymoon
-Go to Doctor and find out what (if any) jabs we need
-Get over fear of snorkelling
-Get feet fixed
-Find out of reception venue would mind us leaving out bags there overnight before the wedding so we don't have to go home between
-Confirm cat-sitter/feeder
Most importantly: Marry man of my dreams and do everything in my power to make the marriage a happy, working, permanent thing.
