Were suppose to be getting married on 1st September 2012 and only thing that's done is booked place to get married (were i don't want to so were tryin to get deposit back and go to this other place) and sorted out who's giving me away (my oldest brother has my dad pass away when i was young) bridesmaids (sister and best mate) and then my little brother is walking down aisle with our son who will be 11 month oldt(just so my brother feels included he'll be 8 and feels this is most important job bless him!) any way would like to know when you guys started planning more stuff and went dress shopping and stuff?

    Our moms found out. So we told them they had a week if they wanted a wedding because I wanted the date to be Oct 31 and I wasnt waiting a year... And they pulled it off. Lol it was just a small del with close family and a couple of friends

    We are going to the courthouse with both our moms in December, it'll just take a week since we just have to order a marriage certificate :) I'm glad I don't have to plan a wedding, course the wedding would be fun, the planning just seems like a pain in the booty and some people go insane with the money :D or at least on tlc... lmfao good luck hun! :)

    One year before. Kept all the details in a neat Excel workbook. Worksheets for: all ceremony participants and contact info; event timeline and tasks/assignments down to the minute; vendors and contact info; music lists since I used an ipod with playlists instead of a dj; guest list with contacts; gifts/thank yous; menu; budget and expenses, etc. Everyone involved got a copy of the appropriate info. It was great!

    There is a website theknot.com, it has a checklist and time line for you. You can get ideas and post a profile that friends and family can view it has a lot to offer :)

    Two months. He asked, we started planning the next day. In that time we also bought a house & moved in. I was also pregnant. I highly don't recommend it! i'd say 6-9 months before.

    We got engaged in Sept. 2010 and married January 1, 2011. I think we started getting things together about November. We had a beach wedding so there wasn't a whole lot of planning.
