{The Wedding Diaries} 135 days to go until W-Day!

As the title states, there are only 135 wedding planning days to go until our very own big day! What with Christmas just round the corner, our wedding plans have taken a bit of a back seat so I thought I would use this post to update you all on our plans so far.

We have booked:

• A gorgeous barn to house our wedding in Canterbury, Kent

• Our super talented photographers – have you seen our pre-wedding shoot?
• Our daytime caterers. Tea and cake anyone?
• The evenings entertainment
• Fabulous floral talent

Other exciting things we have done:

• Bought my wedding dress
• Bought Dean’s suit
• Designed our wedding invitations and sent these to the printers this week
• Booked our honeymoon – We are off to Cuba!! 4 nights in Havana and then 11 nights by the sea… bliss!!
• Booked a lovely house near York for my hen weekend with my best girls… how gorgeous is this bedroom?!?!

• Bought my wedding ring. I most certainly didn’t want to take it off and can’t wait for the day I won’t have to.
• Met with the bar and decided on our wedding day drinks

The To-Do List

After Christmas, Dean and I will be setting aside 1 wedding planning night a week and this is sure to increase as we get ever closer. Here’s a sneak peek of our to do list at the moment! All the tasks are divided into category, i.e. Flowers, Food and Drink, Ceremony etc… and then each one is given a start date and a due date. This spreadsheet is so important in the wedding planning process. We have tabs for the budget, suppliers and payments, guest list, shopping list etc…

Are there any bride-to-be’s reading the blog? Do say hi and let me know how you’re getting on with the planning.

Love,
Louise xo
