Should I be wedding planning more then I am?
June 6, 2009
My wedding is October 25, 2008 and for the last few weeks I have not done much planning, mostly becaues I guess I don't really have anything to do or am I wrong? I've already booked the locations, booked my photograher and Dj, i've ordered my dress and picked out bridesmaid dresses, I've already got my invitations picked out.
I guess its because a girl I work with getting married the weekend before tells me every week how much she has to get done this weekend for planning, and here I am thinking, am I missing some important planning?! Or are there days or weeks where you really don't do much except think of ideas and research them? Does this question make sense?!
I'm using The Knot and another website for checklist, but I'm all up to date on them. So am I missing little details or something that I should be doing now!?
Why ask for stress when there isn't any. If you've marked off a check list and you are up to date…then sit back and enjoy. Work on exercise or diet if need be. Think about your honeymoon and start making plans. Have you booked the place for the ceremony? The flowers? The favors? The menu? If all is in the plans, then go about your routine. If you're looking for things to do…are there hotels in the area to visit and recommend to out of state guests? Anything that will make your life easy before crunch time comes…then do it now. There will be plenty of moments when you get closer to the wedding that you will wish you had this peaceful state of mind. So enjoy and good luck!

I use ezweddingplanner.com to monitor what I need to be doing when. It seriously calms me down looking at what I have to do, and when I have to do it by. There are SO many small details to a wedding that I never thought about that are on this planning website. And they are all important small details that need to be done! So check it out, and it probably really will help you be on track! It has helped me and I am the most unorganized person you'd meet!

I would do as many small details now when you do not have lots of other wedding stuff to do. When I had down times in the big planning stuff, I tried to do some little details that I could do ahead of time. For example, when I had a little lull in the wedding planning, I tied all the bows on the bubbles. It took time and I was glad that I did it far in advance so I didn't have to worry about it when things got busy closer to the wedding.
Those details take so much time that spreading them out is a good thing to do.

Maybe not – there's always a lull.
Some women just aren't as organized!
If you've got free time, spend lots of time with your man NOT talking about wedding planning!!!
