So far, I believe we were able to follow our timeline. By the grace of God, we were able to pay the down payments and book the necessary suppliers. Question is, now that it's almost just a month before the wedding, what else are left to do? Help me review the checklist below (in random order):
VenueCaterPhoto/VideoHair & Make UpFlowersCakeWedding CoordinatorEvent HostWedding SiteInvitationsOfficiant (Pastor)Marriage LicenseGive-away to guests- Favor to Sponsors (to be ordered on April 20)
MusicHotel accommodation for preps- Wedding bands (to be ordered on April 20)
- Crew Meals (to be ordered on May 20)
Wedding GownGroom's Barong & Pants- Bride's wedding shoes (upon availability of funds)
Venue signagesCeremony & reception program- Wedding vows (to be accomplished before May 20)
- Seating chart (to be accomplished before May 6)
- Honeymoon booking (upon availability of funds)
- Final guest headcount (to be accomplished before May 6)
- A home (upon availability of funds)
Did I miss anything? I think we did great for the first 4 months. To be honest, the only concern left is how we are going to pay for the remaining dues with the suppliers. You see this is why it's so important that we know where we stand with regard to the Lord's provision.
Matthew 7:11 If you, then, though you are evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father in heaven give good gifts to those who ask him!
Philippians 4:19 And my God will meet all your needs according to the riches of his glory in Christ Jesus.And these promises are enough for us not to worry. If you are going through a situation like this, it might not be a wedding (because interestingly, this event sounds trivial & overrated to some while others talk about it and give their everything for it like it's a life and death situation), whatever situation it is -- something you have been praying for; a job, healing of a serious illness, a spouse, or bondage to debt. Whatever it is, please remember that someone can get you out of that situation. Stop giving yourself the burden of doing everything. Leave it to the Man who created you. He knows how to handle just about anything. Let Him.

Deletegood luck to you Ven! :) does the flowers section cover the offertory fruits and flowers already? Also, the coins and Bible. These were the last few things we remembered as well.
ReplyDeleteAwww thank you Charm! gees thanks for reminding me those. They were just taken note of mentally, was never a part of the list. Ok will put them on my spreadsheet now. Thanks doll!
DeleteI just discovered that you're getting a Christian wedding! So I guess those things are to be skipped? Haha
ReplyDeletethe offertory part yes but we can't do without the bible. And coins will still be part of the ceremony :) so thanks nonetheless.
