Planning check- point #1

By the grace of God, here we are

Step 1: Prayer- I have begun a 21 day prayer and fasting season just to bathe the whole process in prayer. Step 1 will actually be a continous step but I also wanted a distinct time of prayer

Step 2: DONE! Wedding priorities: getting married!; food; photographs, entertainment, honeymoom and rings- those 5 are the items we want to focus most on

Step 3: DONE (mostly:-) getting the inspiration thanks to pinterest. Ofcourse I continue to look and learn

Step 4: DONE- date set

Step 5: STARTED, PENDING: We talked to potential officiant and then we felt the need to find another! so need to confirm that.

Step 6: DONE drawing up a budget, learning what is realistic and re-drafting it

Step 7: STARTED, PENDING: Did research on loads of venues (see here and here) and we have  narrowed down the options and what's left is to sign the contract

Step 9: PENDING family visits

Step 10: PENDING- We have talked about who we want on our wedding party; I am thinking of a good way to ask

TD1: Keep praying, finish the 21 days of prayer and fasting

TD2: Find and confirm officiant

TD3: Pay for wedding venues

TD4: Send out save the date emails after family visits

TD5: Ask bridal party to be our bridal party:-)
