Feel like I am missing something

We are getting married December this year and I feel like I am not getting things done/ have forgotten about stuff.
Dress - ordered, first fitting done. Shoes and underwear also sorted
Bridesmaids- good idea what we want, date set in April to get dressed.
Groom and best man - sitting themselves out charcoal grey suits.
Venue- booked
Registrar - booked
Florist- waiting for quote, but happy with plans.
Photographer - booked
Cake- tasters ordered from M&S almost certainly will get cake from there. This second time around for both us and neither can remember our first cakes, but we think some sweet is nice in the evening.
Favours- not having them.
Band - DF has friend with wedding band we are likely to use them.
Hair and make-up- talking to possible people.
I can't think of anything else we need, no cars as getting married at venue.

When are you sending invites out? I found that designing those helped organise my thoughts.
We had” additional information “ - hotels, directions etc. That led us to thinking we should organise a taxi service from town to the venue which was a good call.
We had no gifts at ours but how will organise those? Will the venue take them to your room ( assuming you are doing a hotel venue).


Thinking about it from a guest perspective is very handy.

Venue comes with catering so food is all sorted.
Rings - mine was designed with my engagement ring, DF's was his Dad's.
Invites reasonable idea.
Table plan partly though through depends on replies.
Venue is not hotel, so everything collected to a room and then collected the next day.
Bridesmaids gifts know what I want.
Honeymoon booked.

Just feels that really there is too little left to do.

Room decoration and table decorations

Enjoy it then! Mine was a DIY abroad so nothing I could about anything really once we booked venue, reception and celebrant.
Bloody marvellous, I always over think so it was nice not having to worry about “ stuff”.

Room and table DD orations all being done by florist - 75 arrowslits with tea lights and the storm laterns with candles on tables. We are getting married at 3pm in December so most of our decorations are candles and fairy lights.
