5 Months till the wedding.........Am I on the right track?
Wow. You appear to be the most organized bride I've ever seen. You're definitely doing great.





You'll want to take your dress in for alterations ASAP, as they generally take 6 months. The same applies for bridesmaids dresses.





Other than that, great job! And congrats! :o)
Reply:sounds good.
Reply:You're doing good, I can't think of anything that stands out. I laughed when I read your question, because you list that this week you need a "person to marry"- I know you mean officiant, but the way you worded it makes it sound like you are groom shopping! : )





Two things I will recommend, from experience:





1- Rethink the video. We got one done but we didn't spend a lot on it, and I am so glad we got it. I love watching it. I am glad I decided to get it.





2- Imagine your day from beginning to end, everything that you will have to do and how you want things to flow. Spend some time walking through all of the details in your mind- that will help you remember little details that might have slipped your mind.





3- The morning of the wedding, remember to relax and let go. If it hasn't been done by then, it won't be. Remind yourself that you have hired professionals to worry about the details, and then have a blast!





Good luck.
