Before I started planning my wedding, I was soooo excited! Once I started planning and realized what a money and time sucker it was, I wanted to elope. I mean I still do, but at this point, eloping is not an option. So I plowed ahead and researched and read tons of blog posts and forums on all kinds of DIY projects. Then I got all excited again and my inner craftster woke up with a vengeance! So I charged ahead, buying all these craft supplies and started working on the invitations. They're still not done, by the way. I've been putting them off. So now that I'm taking a short breather from the wedding stuff, I realize just how much I've taken upon myself. I need to prioritize my DIY projects!
So after some thought, here are the things I definitely MUST do at this point:
- make simple Save the Date emails (these are actually done, for the most part)
- finish making the invitations (have been putting them off cause am still collecting everyone's guest lists)
- print out invitation labels (easy!)
- make pattern and make chinese dress (not so easy!)
- make simple veil
- make bouquets
- make boutonnieres
- make centerpieces
- make "reserved" seating signs for ceremony
- make escort cards and table numbers
Here's the list of stuff I'll do if I have the time and patience:
- make thank you cards
- make pattern and make evening gown
- make simple underskirt
- make decorations for the ceremony site
- make favors
- make card box
- add crystal beads to veil
- make wedding jewelry
It's a lot of stuff, isn't it? The truth is, all of these tasks are do-able if I could just do a little bit every weekend. However, there's not getting away from the fact that I am lazy! Lol!
