It's Been A While

It's been a while...possibly because I've been sucked into wedding planning overdrive. I've realized it comes in waves. Right after our engagement, we decided on a date, reserved the church and reception site, booked a photographer (the most important vendor to me) and then things slowed to a lull.

Now I'm fully engaged in getting as many things taken care of as quickly as possible. Perhaps it is because I've realized that we're now down to the 8 month mark. Maybe it has something to do with seeing the June 2009 Knotties that are on the ball and posting new "checks" everyday. Whatever it is, I've been jolted into action. Now, rather than wasting my time on Flickr, my enthusiasm has shifted to wasting my time on The Knot forums. It's addicting.

Things I have accomplished thus far...deciding on my Save The Dates (although I'm still waiting on the illustrator to get back in touch with me), designing my own invitations and RSVP cards, and setting up a meeting with a caterer next week. Not a lot...but something is better than nothing, I suppose.

I think once I get my invitation design finalized and book our caterer and DJ, I'll feel like I'm at a better place in the planning process.

That's all for now...I need to get back to The Knot. See...I told you I was addicted.
