I started looking all the little extras that I could do, like favours, wine on the tables, table decs, honeymoon bits etc. But then again I booked, paid and had the wedding all within 6 months so I was steady with little bits and bobs to do. I found the closer I go, I found extra money in the budget to get this extra, or that extra and it all came together beautifully

Omg me!! I'm saying this to everyone - people say wedding planning is so stressful but I've done everything including the favours and gifts and now it's just a waiting game! I am very impatient so this is not fun at all xx

I've felt like this so often over the last 2 years. But then I've always found or thought of something to keep me occupied. Even now with 5 days left I've given myself jobs to do I ain't stopping until I walk down that aisle! X

Best thing I'm finding about being just over a year away is that I have enough time to tweak the minor details...got everything booked but still got breathing space for minor changes to venue decor, cake etc. Good luck to all with planning. Enjoy every moment! x

I've just booked and payed for my florist today now have nothing to do . I'm not doing any diy as I'm useless as don't have a creative bone in my body so that won't keep me busy . Last thing I have to do is buy my flower girl dresses but have to wait till November the 11th due to them growing . Now i just feel like I have nothing to keep me busy . Got venue , dress , flowers , videographer, photographer , hair and make up artists, adult bridesmaids dresses , planned my seating plan and music . If anyone else thinks of anything else I could plan and focus my time on that be wonderful

Wow I can't believe you have finished with 11 months to go. My wedding is in 5 ish weeks and I still have a ton of things to sort. Little bits keep popping up!
