I know our wedding isn't until 2 years from now but I love planning early! I know our ceremony site, reception site, theme, colors, centerpieces, favors, photographer, and even the time line!

What have you girls done so far? What do you need/have left to do?

I still need to find a band, put in some deposits, find the dress once again, and all my diy projects.

Booked the ceremony/reception site. Waiting till next spring to book photographer and possible limo service. We have our current colors picked out, and I definetly have an invitation template in mind. Centerpieces I'm split on, one minute I like the thought of using feathers and the venue complimentary pieces and next I want to use paper lanterns. I'm holding off dressing shopping till 9/2010.

I've bought all of my vases for my tablescapes.  We know our reception site already, however, the place won't take our booking until the wedding is at least a year away so we won't be securing the site until sometime at end of May 2010.  I've made my hairpiece (working on the 2nd one) and bought my earrings.  The little things can get done for now, the big things have to wait.

The only thing besides planning that I have done is stress! Even though I know that the wedding is two years away that time really does fly. The hardest part thus far has been finding a reception venue although, my FI and I ran across one the other day while we were house hunting. It looked absolutely beautiful from the outside and the pictures on the website were phenomenal.

Well our wedding was supposed to take place in 2010 orginally, so guests have received invitations initially and now a newsletter about postponing the wedding. 

Since then I've located a better venue and a wedding planner.

We've booked our venue and date. 

Besides that, I've started dress shopping but haven't found something that I *must* have. We've also started getting quotes from photographers, and meeting with a few that we like. 

After we get the photographer sorted, I will start looking at celebrants and hair/makeup. 

Ha, I got engaged and got right on the ball!  Here is what I have so far:  my dress, my wedding shoes, my venue, my coordinator, my photographer, my caterer, and my hairstylist!  I'm trying to wrap up my MUA but she won't book this far in advance. 

I think I've done too much and now its time to relax...

purchased 3 dresses (OUCH), birdcage veil, jewelry, shoes, flowergirl dresses, engagements/ttd shoot (DONE see bio), std's, cake toppers, dress hanger, will you be my bridesmaid cards, cuff links, bm dresses and purses, making RING SECURITY t-shirts for my ring barers (today). 

Venue, church, meeting w photographer this weekend, (almost) decided on dress, have veil picked out, bought unity candle.

All we've done so far is to book our ceremony/reception venue!  We're working on DJ, photographer, florist and officiate this month and then I plan on taking a "break" over the summer to let my ideas develop into a comprehensive theme.  I'm WAY too all over the place right now to start planning out the details!!
