10 Months To Go!

I got an email from The Knot yesterday that reminded me that I only have 10 more months till the big day. This reminder made me excited, but also a bit nervous! There is so much to do on the wedding front and I've taken a little bit of a break from the vendor planning and instead have been dreaming about wedding colors and design. The words I like to use to describe my wedding are southern, preppy, and classic (anyone who knows me should not be surprised about this!).

I've been envisioning a billowing white tent and outdoor dance floor (twinkling bistro lights are a must).

Navy, being one of my favorite colors, will have to be incorporated into my color scheme.

Also, bows. Gimme all the bows.

And monograms are a must!

There are so many lovely photos and inspiration on Pinterest and websites like Southern Weddings...I could (and do) spend hours looking at them!

Back to the checklist that The Knot sent me...so for month 10 I'm supposed to:

Book officiant

Find and meet caterers and then book one 

Book photographer (DONE, yay for Bella Grace Photography) 

Book reception and ceremony site 

Ask bridal party to be in wedding

Take engagement photos (probably get this done in January) 

Block out hotel rooms

Try on wedding dresses (Squeeeeeee!!!!)

Pin invitations, flowers and cake pictures

Find a florist

December is an especially busy month (with the crazy holiday season and my sister, brother in law and nephew coming to visit!), so getting things done should be interesting!
