Our wedding is less than two months away and we are making the final planning decisions. Waiting until the last minute (according to typical wedding planning suggested timelines, anyway) actually has an advantage: You’re forced to just make a concrete decision on things, which takes the hemming and hawing and reconsideration out of everything.
