I've now got all of the final vendor meetings scheduled except my florist and my venue. I'm doing them all two weeks before the wedding, so that way it's close enough to where everyone knows what is going on, but not far enough away so that everyone forgets what was talked about at the meeting.
The first meeting I have is with my DJ. By the time of that meeting, we need to have our entire playlist figured out so I can hand it over to him. We also need to discuss the day of timeline. We need to figure out when he's showing up and when he's leaving and also give him our timeline so he knows when to play certain songs and make announcements.
The next meeting is for my dress fitting. I'm taking one of my bridesmaids with me so that she can learn how to bustle my dress. Hopefully the dress will fit perfectly because we're cutting it close on time and I'm not sure if we'll have time to do more alterations.
The last meeting I have scheduled is with my photographer. We need to go over the must-take list of photos. At the suggestions of my coordinators, I'm also going to take some pictures of important family members to show her so she knows who is who on the wedding day. We also need to finalize the day of timeline so we know what is going on at all times.
I originally had a venue meeting planned, but then I got my job so I'm having to change it around. I'm having a hard time rescheduling that because she wants me to be able to get from my office to the venue in half an hour. During rush hour traffic, it's going to take at least an hour to get out there. So hopefully she's willing to work with me because there is no way I can miss work to go out to our venue. At our venue meeting we need to provide them with final numbers (not really sure why), order as many tables as we need, pay our final bill, and then go over any other details needed.
I'm working on scheduling the florist meeting and mock-up right now. She's normally pretty available, so that shouldn't be a hard meeting to schedule. She'll be bringing mock-ups of the bridesmaid's bouquets, which I can't wait to see. I'm sure they're going to be gorgeous. We also need to figure out what time she's going to drop off the flowers at the venue.
So, I've gotten those out of the way and now I just have to prepare for them. I'm going to make packets for each vendor so they know where they're supposed to be and when they're supposed to be there. I'll show them you as soon as they're finished.
