wedding planning update: 4+ months to go

We have less than five months to go!!


Since my last update...

- I started the search for invitations, picked a designer, and started working on proofs
- Had a cake tasting and picked a wedding cake!
- Starting putting ideas together for wedding welcome bags
- I'm almost finished putting together the bridesmaid gifts; they should be done next month!
- Purchased wedding day undergarments
- Started compiling reception and ceremony details (centerpieces, votives, signs, etc.)
- Took dance lessons for our first dance and sent DJ other song choices
- Booked a calligrapher
- Purchased wedding rings!
- Figured out the beer choices for the reception
- Scheduled my first dress fitting!
- Finalized our registry picks
- Purchased wedding day jewelry
- Started thinking about ceremony readings

Next up on the list?

- Purchase the guy's attire, which all hinges on when J Crew releases their Spring/Summer line; I've been checking the website like a crazy person and also talking to a wedding coordinator
- I want to start collecting items for my honeymoon, including some new monogrammed Jack Rogers
- Finish up the bridesmaid gifts
- Gather the rest of the reception and ceremony details, including table signage, centerpieces, and cocktail napkins
- Approve an invitation design and send it off to the printer
- Finalize a wedding cake design
