6 Months

Getting closer!

So with 6 months to go, I thought I’d pull my finger out and start getting a few things accomplished. Which I have!

=o)

GOOD THINGS
I have found and bought my dress,
Coaxed the future husband into suit shopping and managed to find fantastic suits for the groomsmen from David Jones (I forget the brand but I will have to post it up once I remember),
Getting veil made,
Bought my bridesmaid dresses,
Bought my shoes,
Booked the reception venue,
Booked the ceremony venue,
Booked the videographer,
Booked the photographer,
Booked my flowers/florist,
Booked hairdresser (and found my style)
Booked transportation,
Booked makeup,
Gifts for Bridesmaids and Groomsmen sorted but not bought.
Table decorations, Cake (which I’ve picked) MC and DJ are included in our reception package.


BAD THINGS
Honeymoon… I’m not a millionaire; I have a mortgage and bills and cannot afford to go to where I would love to go (Bora Bora) so we are still in the decision process.
The mother in law… I don’t know how many times I need to tell her “NO! I’m not going with black and silver for the theme, so stop saying it”
Invitations… Haven’t started them yet!
Bonbonniere… Ridiculously shitty crap at stupid prices (also we have 200-250 people coming)
Flowergirl dresses and Pageboy suits… Still looking.
Wedding rings… Probably getting them made.

Other small bits and pieces are also still being done. (Searching for jewellery, chairs for ceremony, lingerie, card box, entertainment… etc.)

Please tell me if I’ve missed anything!
