Keep it small. Keep it intimate. Keep it simple. Chant that daily. Ask your church to help. And keep it small. Keep it intimate. Keep it simple.. Invite only a few family, consider eloping with just a few family and friends (yep, elope WITH family!). And keep it small. Keep it intimate. Keep it simple.

And if you have specific reason why the rush - you may need to tell part of your family and his, with him; and then you'll all have the same priority: And keep it small. Keep it intimate. Keep it simple. And get it done. And anybody else who wonders, well, they might figure it out in time. :) and who cares?

It can still be lovely, still a celebration.

Well, First off you need to decide where you plan to have your wedding, church, outside, etc. Be sure that the church has an opening on that day. If you are doing this outside or somewhere other than a church then you need to make sure the priest is available. Then you need to reserve the hall where you plan to hold the reception. Some churches have a small hall that you can use for a donation. At this point there isn't alot of time to plan for decorations, so I would keep it simple. Use fish bowls or something with floating candles. Music could be lavish (Band or DJ) or simple (Music Box). If you have your wedding in the afternoon you only need to serve finger foods, if you have it in the evening you will need to serve dinner. Small wedding cakes do not require alot of time so this is something that even a small bakery could handle. You will need to purchase paper products, flowers for the church and your bridal party. I would suggest since there isn't much time that you rent dresses instead of purchasing them. This way the company will do all of the alterations for you.

K.I.S.S.

Obviously, the main thing that you want is the bridal gown to be tailored properly, so get this going first, may take the longest.
Other than that, talk to the priest, rabbi, whatever, and make the arrangements with him.
Then of course the organist, after that its a pot luck reception invitation that you print out on your computer and of course, do this after you get the hall.
Go to your local IPArty, whatever and get the decorations that you want to use. Simple idea is a plastic flower arrangement to place at the end of each pew in the center isle of the church, in the reception hall, may sound high school ballish, but streamers, ballons on strings works well to fill areas with decoration. Tables, just a couple of large rolls of paper table cloths, streamers on the tables edges, candles, Engraved matches and napkins for keepsakes for the onlookers may be possible but expect big bucks for the rush job.
Go shopping with your bridesmaids and all agree on the one dress and have them all fitted at the fitting room.
Groom can deal with the tux rentals.
DJ is probably the easiest for entertainment but may be difficult to get the date that you want, make a play list.
Try to make it more of a down home feel than an extravagant engagement. You are the center of attention anyways, so the simpler the set up, the more doable it will be and the more liekly you will succeed in reaching your goal.

Good Luck, expect to be busy! Not just on the weekends either!

Well i organised mine in less than three weeks. Get your skates on- book the venue now- first things first- decide on what kind of a reception you want and where, then get that booked. Simple and small is definately the best if you have limited time. Order, or get someone to make a cake- go shopping now for rings/dresses. It need not be expensive- i had a family member make me a cake, but you can get one from your supermarket for £10. I borrowed a dress,but there are plenty of shops who sell off the peg- Littlewoods, BHS, Debenhams- all do bridal wear off the peg at good prices. Look at friends who can do photography- you don't need fancy and expensive photographers these days because cameras are so good. You can ask around and see who got a nice car for you to get to church/registry office now. You can do it- if you don't want such a huge expensive do.

Calm down. Yes it can be done. I did ours in 14 days. My mother had been very ill, and had a spell of being well again. We wanted to do it when she was well enough to attend. We went to the church, spoke to the vicar, who agreed to conduct it at such short notice. The ceremony was traditional, we had the traditional vows, and went to a local venue for a 3 course meal. , where the best man, my father, my groom, all did their speeches. The evening was a good old knees up at a hotel, where we stayed in the honeymoon suite. It was a lovely day, which I'll remember forever.

Yes it is possible my husband now popped the question in November 2006, we got married January 07, All of our family and friends that lived nearby, we telephoned and did it by word of mouth, we got the reports as to who was going to be there, out of state relatives we called as well, purchased a bridal gown new for $99 dollars, bakery's were booked, so I had TOP's make my wedding cake 3 tier which was gorgeous, all our flowers came from wal-mart we used silk flowers matter of fact all of the decorations came from walmart, the food was catered by both of our families, the girls in both families did all of the decorating of the church and the reception area, as well as set up the buffet for the food, the women in my church served all of the guests, my brothers and his family went to set up tables and chairs, etc. I don't know if this helps you can email me a pookster4262@yahoo.com

It isn't going to be easy but first of all you work from the legal necessities backwards. Get the actual marriage booked and sorted - the rest of the fluffy bits are not as important and frankly can be done in a week if you put your mind to it! Good luck.

it took me 4 months, but i wasnt rushing. the main thing is that you need to have the banns read (usually at your town hall) in time. get onto that first. i used a small church that didnt do many weddings so they could fit us in whenever we wanted. apart from that all you really need to do is find somewhere for a reception. if you want formal they get booked up quickly but we hired a room and just had a knees up with our family and friends.dresses can be bought at wedding fayres, or ebay is really good. i didnt have flowers in the church or reception cos they'r so expensive but i made a bouquet for me, and had decorated horseshoes for my bridesmaids. it all depends on how traditional and elaborate you want to be. good luck, and enjoy it x

I managed it, dress, church, flowers, cars & hotel reception. Being july/aug you may be a tad late with chrch etc. Get your butt down to the church you want, ring the church secretary make appt as you need the banns to be up. Trawl round dress shops, or e-bay you never know your perfect dress may be there, or debenhams do a lovely range. With my weding car i managed that 2days before, told the driver not to wait at the church (cost more) but gave him average time to come bck, ie; 1hr. With my reception i bought a helium gas from local gas shop, favour boxes i put together myself e-bay, disposable cameras e-bay this site was my life saver around this time. I put up balloons wrote with a marker on it table numbers, held them down with pretty gem stones, sprinkled glitter on tables, cake i got two seperate layers made, i put them on top of each other, decorated it with diamonte stones & edible glitter. Did a buffet for 50 people bt there was so so much left, we asked the hotel to provide proper cutlery so it didn't feel cheap. Went to france for our champers & booze although did have to pay a corkage fee. Arranged mine in 6wks, cost 4500 quid, looked so good veryone thought it cost a fortune, you just have to think outside the box, oh & got my bridesmaid dresses from TK max, they looked stunning. & we had it on a fri which saved a bit. Good Luck!

first get straight to register office to book it,then to a venue to book the reception,you can usually get an off the peg wedding dress from most bridal shops,and florists dont need too much notice for flowers,if you have bridesmaid,any good stores sells dresses,and then ring and book cars and photographers,get invites sent out asap,and about five week before get groom and best man measured up,then you just need to nip into jewellers for rings,and into marks and spencers get a plain white cake,and see if you can get it iced,and a bride and groom on top.dress rehearsal two days before,nails and hair the night before,and youve cracked it
