Officiant

I ended up emailing Alice Inoue to be our officiant. Apparently she can't confirm the date until four months before the actual wedding, but I did receive an email stating she has the date "reserved" for us.

Meanwhile my future MOL has been trying to reach a friend of the family to be our MC. BFC tried to contact someone to DJ our reception, but that person didn't even call him back. BAD BUSINESS!

I guess instead of looking at the things that aren't complete, I could focus more on the stuff that is done...I need to finish up that budget list in the book.

Lists

I started inputting all of my expenses into the book my MOH bought me as an engagement present. I haven't totaled everything yet, but it's amazing how quickly everything is happening (as I'm sure I said in so many words in my prior post). I finally emailed someone to be our officiant, but she's one of the popular ones, so I'm hoping she'll have the date open, but if not, we'll just have to find someone else.

Another thing I was thinking about was the DJ/MC. If I could find someone who could do both, that would kill two birds with one stone. I'm also in the process of finding a florist. I was watching some videography samples last night and am thinking of putting in some extra money for a videographer.

My MOH's sister said that she would do my cake and I'm going to ask her to do my centerpieces and favors as well. I've seen some really cute cupcake cakes and was thinking of doing something like that, but I know that it may end up being more expensive to have the cake that way.

So much to worry about, but so little time.

9 More Months!

Well, there are approximately nine more months until the wedding. I haven't really been doing any wedding stuff until recently since GC's wedding is over.

BFC and I went to purchase our invitations yesterday and are looking forward to seeing the finished products. I can't believe how quickly time has passed.

Other than getting the invitations done, there are still so many other things to do...
like getting an officiant, booking a florist, MC/DJ...I need to do my checklists.
