Things are starting to happen!

Well, the wedding is less than 5 months away and things are really coming together. Some of our far-flung guests have made travel arrangements, hotel rooms are being booked, attendants are choosing attire, and bit-by-bit the invitations are getting printed!

The checklist/to-do list:

Done:

Date
Venue
Catering
Bar
Photographer
Officiant
Dress
Rings
Florist (DIY ... so, me!)
Hotel Blocks
Registry
Save-the-Dates (email/Christmas Card inserts)
Supplies purchased for ceremony and reception decor
Hair stylist booked

In progress:

Rehearsal Dinner
Cake
Invitation printing and assembly
Honeymoon
Attendant attire (ladies are choosing their own, guys wearing their own suits)

To Do:

FH's attire
Music Playlist for ceremony and reception (planning to iPod it)
Invitation Mailing (first few weeks of April)
Make/shop accessories (sash for dress, brooch, decorative hairpins or comb, amazing space-age undergarments, maybe shoes?)
Attendant gifts
Programs
Escort cards
Favors (we may just skip this ... we'll see)
Seating chart
probably some other stuff that I'm forgetting right now...


So, as you can see lots of these things can't even be done until much closer to the actual wedding date. Time to kick off our shoes and relax a little!!
