About Mrs. Joey

Mr. Joey’s Back!

July 1st, 2009 @ 12:35 pm by Mrs. Joey

I was really, really productive while Mr. Joey was away. I started and finished the assigned seats, designed the table numbers, made good progress on the centerpieces, figured out the bouquets for MOH Joey and myself and I finally found the wedding inspiration I’ve been searching for.

Despite the progress, I’m really, really glad he’s back. His return has reminded me how little time we have left until the big day. We’ve got a month, or a little less than 5 weeks left, and our to do list is still pretty long.

We’ve managed to get a lot of the big things out of the way like collecting RSVPs and finishing seating assignments, but we have a lot of the little details still left to complete. Now that Mr. Joey is back and done with school, he has lots of time to take care of the details. Some of the ones I trust him with are getting the liquor license, picking up the beer, mixers, and wine orders, and assembling the table numbers/menus. I say, “trust,” because Mr. Joey isn’t the most patient person when it comes to detailed crafts.

I might have to outsource a few tasks or eliminate some altogether (gasp!).

What items on you wedding to do list have to delegated to your FI?

I had delegated the DJ search to him, but he got overwhelmed, quit, and I had to take over ;( Since then.. haven’t really given him much to do, honestly.

Mr. Bruschetta’s the one planning our honeymoon! I’m taking on most of the wedding tasks in return. :-)

The dude is in charge of gathering pictures from his parents for a project. I don’t give him a ton of tasks because I know he won’t do them!

Honeymoon planning, invitation assembly, and vendor liaison. But in exchange for me doing 90% of the wedding stuff, he did the cooking and laundry. It ended up being a pretty even split.

He did most of the price negotiations with vendors, which completely intimidates me. I’m very particular about my “vision” and frankly don’t trust him with the aesthetics of the day. When it comes to money matters and getting a good price, though, Mr teamzee is the BEST!

Most recently, I’ve delegated him with finding somewhere to print our invites. I figured that since I designed them, he can do the work to find the appropriate printer. :)

I’m glad you got your honey back. :)

Wait, did I just make a bit of a “bee” joke? Why yes, I did.*chuckle*
