How to plan a wedding
It made me
Elated! 
"Fun on a bun!"
How I did it: With the help of mostly my mother, step-mother-in-law, and sister-in-law! I could never have done it without them! They helped me to plan a wedding in TX while I lived in KY. I met with most of my vendors (venue, catering, cake, dresses, flowers, DJ, photography) before leaving TX, however.
We did some things ourselves like the centerpieces, draping, invitations, and programs.
We also had an invaluable resource--our photographers, who were our relatives, had excellent recommendations for other vendors.
Lessons & tips: Plan early. The earlier you can make decisions the better. The location(s) are the very first thing you need to decide on, and the good places go quick!!!
Get everything you can get done as early as you can do it. It will allow you to enjoy the moments of your shower/stag/rehearsal/ceremony/reception without worry.
Something will go wrong. Just accept that, breathe, and move on. You will be a happier bride/wedding planner!
Resources: theknot.com (SO helpful!). Sams.com for centerpiece flowers. Also, ask your current vendors who they'd recommend for other things. The wedding business is a small community--everyone knows each other and knows who are the best people at their jobs.

O how plans change in a few years…or don’t.
We’re getting married May 23, 2009. Planning this thing is pretty fun, but I think I am most excited about the honeymoon to Costa Rica! Volcanoes, sloths and Caribbean loveliness for me :)
So far I have:
the groom
the dress
the venues
the caterer
the cake lady…I think
the guest list…sort of
Still to go:
the officiant
the DJ
the florist
the invitations*
the bridesmaid stuffs
...and anything else I forgot
- I am designing my own invitations! It is fun, and so far I likes what I gots. I just need the cards/envelopes and to figure out if Kinkos or my printer will be better. Anyone have any input on this?

2 years and counting…
He’s decided to become an officer in the military (army or air force). We have to be married to get all the benefits. Ergo, we are getting married the summer after we graduate.
