We've set up this space to keep track of this, the biggest project we've put together. We started planning in early March for a Fall wedding, nearly 7 months to plan and pull off this shindig!
We're actually having two-one for family and the other for friends. While both are for people we love we recognize that some things that would be fun for one group, might be less fun for the other group so we split them up! And this means the planning, etc. is double in some aspects. We'll do our best to update here on the entire wedding, each of its aspects and the whole event together.

Just under a month!

Ohmygod! We are at just under a month! Our Wedding Part I happens on September 25. Part II will happen on October 3 (the first's for family, the second for friends).
Many things are done and most other things are almost done or cannot be done until the week of. We will buy cheesecakes for Part I (and one non-cheese cake as per Shira's request), we will finish the favors, which include edibles, we (well, AJ) will hang fairy lights in the trees. My father will finish designing the beautification of the yard (and I will prohibit him from doing the physical work himself); we WILL finish tidying up the house before 40 people descend on it; we will do many other things that I cannot think of right now.
In the meantime, I need to finish hemming Shira's dress, help Rahel find a tie (she's wearing a suit!), hope my bolero comes in time, finish writing the ceremony and our promises to each other, figure out the sand thingy (we're doing a 4 people unity thing which will include the both of us and the girls), make sure the vendors are on track (and pay them), and try and do as much of this as I can before leaving for Burning Man next week. AJ's already left. He'll be gone until September 8th, which leaves us, what 17 days? Right. 2 weeks to finish everything while still maintaining life, and our sanity.
But it feels ok, like we're getting there, and then we have years and years to relax together. (um, yeah, we tend to come up with big projects on a regular basis...)
One month to go!
