With only 7 months to go (and the time will fly), The Bachlorette’s Deanna Pappas & Jesse Csincsak have done very little in the way of preparing for the big day on May 9, 2009.  Says Deanna:

“We’ve gone from about 400 people, and we’re breaking it down,” “I think we want to enjoy ourselves and our day versus having to talk to a bunch of people all day long. So, we’re dwindling it down.”

The difficulties of the planning process:

“I don’t know how people plan a wedding,” Pappas, 26, said. “I know what color I want my dresses to be, and bridesmaids’ dresses. He wants a cheesecake. And that’s about as far as we’ve gotten.”

The girl needs a wedding planner, um, hello?  Says Csincsak:

“Our relationship obviously is our main focus, and then as well as the wedding on top of that,” he told PEOPLE. “It’s not this huge thing everyday. We’re both so busy all the time. We don’t have time right now to plan a wedding, and we’re planning a wedding, which is crazy.”

Despite paring the wedding down, there will still be room for their celebrity friends:

“I’m friends with a lot of the guys from the same season I was on, Jason being one of them,” said Csincsak, “[Chris] Harrison is a great guy. Trista and Ryan [Sutter] have been super-influential to us. We’re psyched to have all of them there.”

You’d think given that it will be televised and they are who they are that they could get a little help with the planning of the wedding?
