    Sit down in a quiet place and make a list of all the things you need to take with you to the place of the wedding. Will you be dressing at home or the site of the wedding. Start from the inside out

    underware, stockings, shoes, slip, dress, veil,

    make sure the florist has the correct day and time for delivery of the flowers

    pack your luggage the week before and lock it so that no tricks can be played on you

    make sure the bakery has the correct day and time of delivery of the cake

    take a small handkerchief with you that can be tucked in your hand with your flowers

    Oh, and have fun and relax and enjoy this very special day. You should not be stressed out you will want to be able to look back with much enjoyment in the years to come. Even if something does get forgotten it will be ok in the long run. God's blessings on you both

    ~don't forget why you are marrying this person in the first place :D

    ~I know you said don't say 'have fun' and I won't but it's going to be along those lines: don't forget that no matter how organized you are some things still may go wrong, don't stress out about it on your day just let it roll off your back and worry about it when you get back from the honeymoon.

    ~don't forget to eat! Especially if it's a big wedding I hardly see the bride and groom actually sit down and eat. Food is good for you!

    ~If you're in an area that is still warm at this time of year stay hydrated (and even if it's not warm anymore in your area it's still good advice)

  • I am in 3 weeks and I am so UN-organized that I KNOW I will forget something. Just remember the little things like transportation for everyone, hotel baskets (if there are out of town guests staying), Itroductory music (for the DJ), Gifts for the girls & parents, Also, don't forget that aside from all the wedding HOOP LA that you are going to Marry the man you love and that is what is most important. I don't think you will forget anything though...I know I will lol. Good luck, congrats.

    I found that I didn't have time to make CDs for music like I thought I did lol! After we were married, I realized I'd forgotten to put the garter on. And also, I forgot the ring bearer pillow :). Just remember that if you forget something, don't freak about it, things can either be retrieved or just looked over. Oh yeah... I also forgot to take my bouquet down the aisle with me :P. I was too busy worrying about carrying my dress (it was outside in the grass) and holding on to my dad so I didn't trip over my heels.

    Just remember that none of it is worth freaking out over. Remember to laugh and you'll have the best time of your life!

    The thing I forgot -

    We stayed at the hotel where the reception was held in the ballroom, so packed ahead of time, obviously, and arranged for a family member to get our bags to the room that day.

    However, the next morning when I went to dress, I had my dress to wear that day (for church, then to the gift opening/brunch) - but I didn't have a half-slip - and YES that dress needed one, it was summer, and the fabric was fairly sheer. I had worn a full-length slip with my wedding gown, so couldn't use that. I just went without to church in just the dress (and was really careful how and where I stood), then put on my half-slip when we got to my mom's house.

    ALSO, my glasses broke the morning of the wedding, and no way or place to fix them. I had no backup. If you wear contacts or have glasses, have a backup!

    The license and your ID, your fiance's ID, and the ID of the witnesses will be required if you want to marry (some officiants check ID before you are allowed to sign- even if they have known you from birth!!!).

    Make sure everyone's cell phones are fully charged AND everyone has everyone else's phone numbers in their directories. From there, everything else can be dealt with.

    Have a small sewing kit with you on the actual day. give it to someone to look after for you and also spare hair grips and a small can of hairspray, chewing gum, deodorant, plasters. I had all this stuff in an emergency bag on the day and at the reception i put it behind the bar to save for if i needed it.
