Getting Reorganized

I have 2 weeks until the wedding and I'm completely lost as far as what I have to do next.  I know that everything will start to make more sense and I'll be better once I get to Indiana, but right now, I have no idea what I should be doing.

I tried to get reorganized last weekend and that didn't work... I spent too much time shopping, bottling wine and sleeping which all seemed like way better ways to spend my time.  :)

So this weekend is going to be spent figuring out what I have to do when I get to Indiana.  I have to have our numbers into our venue by next Wednesday, which should be fine... we don't have many people to hear back from at this point.  I'm not done yet with the seating chart, which is going to be what J and I work on before we head north because we'll need that information sooner rather than later.

Here are some things that I know we'll be working on when we get to Indiana:
  1. Centerpieces
  2. Card Box
  3. Favors
  4. Table Numbers
  5. Escort Cards
  6. Escort Card Display
  7. Find something to put Bridesmaid bouquets in on the head table
  8. Find something to put our sparklers in
  9. Start assigning tasks to the girls for the day of the wedding
  10. Package the bridal party gifts
  11. Folding programs
I'm guessing we can knock most of that out in a couple of days, especially if we work hard and just stick with the directions that I've already put together.  The problem is, I know I'm forgetting something, or lots of things.  I'm not sure when I'm going to figure out all those other things!!!

I'm not really stressing about it, yet, but I know I will... probably once we are in the car and have 16 hours to think about it.  If anyone out there has any tips for me of things that you wish you would have written down or thought of for your wedding day, I'd love to hear them!!!
