The planning before the action

I made it through Bridesmaid Limbo -- for both the sets of bridesmaids and groomsmen, five of the six have answered in the affirmative that they will join the Fellowship of the Hayes! I still need to get in touch with one potential bridesmaid via phone (who works a crazy schedule) and Johnny needs to get in touch with one groomsman (who also works a crazy schedule), but we're mostly good to go. The video was a hit, and pretty much the entire wedding party wants to wear chainmail and carry axes, so there's no telling what this wedding will look like when I tell them they can wear pretty much what they want :P

So, we've got:
- A date
- A venue
- People

For being engaged for three weeks, I think it's a good start :)
I'm probably going to be taking the rest of November/possibly through December "off" from the practical side of planning because of the craziness of the holiday season and because we'll probably be moving sometime in the next month. What I would like to accomplish before the new year:
- Getting the guest list finalized and getting addresses for everyone.
- Making a list of all the pieces of the wedding/reception, who's paying for what, and how much we're budgeting for them (I have this mostly done, but I want to go over it in detail again).
- Making a list of all the DIY projects I want to do, collect the instructions for those, know what materials I'll need, how much they'll cost, and how much time I'll need to complete them.
So it may not be stuff with tangible results, but it'll make the next action steps a loooot easier.
