My wedding is february and my mom is hassling me to hurry up and put our announcement in the paper. And how long before the wedding should you have the bridal shower? This is my first wedding that ive even helped plan and since it is mine I want to do things right. Anyone know a timeline?

In my opinion, doing things "right" is doing things the way you want them done. It is YOUR wedding after all. Put the announcement in the paper when you feel it is appropriate. I don't think there is technically a "right " or "wrong" time. Some people put the announcement right after the engagement, some do it months before the wedding, and some wait until the wedding is already over.
As far as the bridal shower, same deal applies. Since you probably aren't throwing your own bridal shower you should find a day that works for you and your maid of honor and still leaves the maid of honor enough time to plan out what she wants to do.
Don't stress too much & congrats in advance.

Hi there! I put my wedding announcement in the paper about 3-4 weeks before the wedding...but that's just what people usually do where I live. As for a bridal shower...I got married in December, and I had one at the end of October, and another one the second weekend in November. Good luck and Congrats!!

I am not posting the wedding announcement until after we're married.
The engagement announcement went out a month after we got engaged.
The bridal shower could be a month or two before the wedding and is NOT organized by the bride and groom.

I put mine in 7 months in advance. I think you can do it whenever you want up until the wedding. You might want to go ahead and do it now. I'd say do the shower a month or two before, but etiquette-wise, someone besides you or your mom should be planning that for you. :)

a million. flow on your library, bookshop, or Amazon, and seem for DIY/funds wedding ceremony books. There are a million information on the thank you to save money, from having the marriage on your guy or woman outdoors to asking a relative to bake the cake. some will paintings for you and a few won't. %. up some analyzing cloth and soak up all of the recommendations which you would be able to. 2. in the USA, bridesmaids and groomsmen regularly pay for their own outfits (bridesmaid gown or tux, footwear, upload-ons). that is time-honored for the bride/couple to pay for the hair and makeup in the event that they are insisting that the bridesmaids use a particular hair/makeup service. in case you do no longer desire to pay for their hair/makeup, then tell them that they are welcome to do their own or flow to their own salon and that they might get it finished in spite of the undeniable fact that they choose. yet once you like that the bridesmaids use the hair guy or woman coming on your domicile, or the makeup guy or woman who you have have been given booked, then you definitely ought to pay for it. 3. the terrific thank you to save on nutrition is to flow with a venue the place you may deliver you own - a park or sea coast the place you may grill (hire a relative/pal to guy the hearth) and placed across part dishes, for occasion. otherwise, you are going to have your venue and native caterers what their expenditures are for various meal thoughts. %. 4 or 5 places, call, and ask in the event that they might deliver you a cost record or take notes on what they are asserting. 4. My own concept is that if a pair is mature sufficient to get married, they might desire to be mature sufficient to pay for their own wedding ceremony. If a kin member volunteers to make contributions some money in direction of the marriage, extraordinary. If no longer, they might desire to no longer ask yet ought to have a marriage that they might handle to pay for on their own. If meaning a reception on your outdoors with cake and punch, then that's what it means. If, at twenty years old, you're actually unable to handle to pay on your "dream" wedding ceremony, the two curb your expectancies or wait until you have stored sufficient money.

Announce now.
YOU don't plan the bridal shower, your friends/relatives who love you do.
