A quick update on our to-do list:

January

• Get sample invite: Done!

February

• Figure out flowers & hire a florist: Florist picked, in the process of figuring out what we want
• Figure out hair & make-up & book: In progress
• Hire cake baker: Waiting on one last quote
• Hire a DJ: Done!

March

• Figure out ceremony music: No clue
• Pick first dance song: Ha!
• Figure out rings: In progress
• Have all guest list info in our magical guest list spreadsheet: In progress

So the big lingering item from January is the guys’ outfits and I hope to have that sorted some in the next couple of weeks. The other January item is the guest hotel rooms but we have the hotel picked and we have a quote, we just need to tell them to block off about a dozen rooms for us.

I’m confident that the cake will be sorted out by the end of this month. I’m pretty sure we have a design picked, we just need Dufflet to get back to us with a quote (for some reason it takes them a week).

I am a bit worried about my hunt for an in-house hair stylist. There seems to be a ton of talented, in-home make-up artists out there but hair stylists seem rarer and I’ve yet to track one day who I think will work.

Then there’s figure out our first dance song and ceremony music. I have no clue what we’re going to use there.
