The Planning Wall |

Have you ever felt like you’re walking and just not getting anywhere? That’s kind of what I feel like at this point with wedding planning, except I’m not even getting exercise from it! We’ve hit a wedding planning wall.

I feel like we’re living and breathing wedding planning but not getting any closer to having a wedding planned. This feeling is mostly due to thinking we’d found our reception place and then having it yanked from under us. Now we have to start back at square one with the reception, also pushing back our DJ search.
In order to boost my mood about our planning process it’s time for another Lilac List! The following is the list of what Lilac Dude and I have done:
1. I have a dress (still need to get the right crinoline, but a dress is a dress)
2. I have accessories: a veil, jewelry and shoes
3. We have a photographer
4. We have a date and a church (still no pastor, but the church has to do that)
5. My mother has a dress
6. Flowers are 75% done
7. Our honeymoon is booked
We have a lot done, but as we’re approaching one year of engagement I feel like we should have more done. Especially since some couples put together their wedding in fewer than 12 months!

OK… this is good solid advice! Hire a wedding Planner! They are not expensive they are PRICELESS! An experienced wedding coordinator will break down that wall honey!!

Contact a planner to schedule an initial complimentary consultation in person to customize services based on your needs. This will help put your mind at ease and offer you guidance with your planning process. Be sure to enjoy the process as much as possible and don’t be afraid to ask for help from family and friends.
