Margo is hardly the first person to plan a wedding while holding down a full-time job. The real question to ask is not "can she do it?" but "did they even set a date for the damn thing?" I think they're planning this wedding on the same unconstrained time scale that everything else in this strip exists. I mean, the last decision that got made about the wedding, in February, was the venue. Which is basically where you start when planning a wedding. Also this story has been going since October.
Also, didn't Gabriella say at this point that her psychic is a famous wedding planner? I think Margo's off the hook if she wants to be. (Which she did for the first four months of this plot.)

Frank seems to have forgotten who Tommie is, and what she's supposed to look like. But then, haven't we all? At least the colorist remembered orange hair.
I'm feeling notaligic for my Movin' Groovin' Velvet doll of somewhere around 1971. Push the belly button and pull the hair longer, turn the know in the back for the hair to get shorter. This is what's happening to Tommie, right?
Knob. I meant knob. you turned the knob and her hair got sucked inside her head. Looking back, it was a bit weird.
What plot?
I'd be a little careful about relying on Diane D's wedding planning skills in case they're on par with her 'psychic medium' skills; (cue D.D. sneaking away from the wedding party into the next room, saying "Wedding" in a spooky voice, then smacking her hands in a self-satisfied manner and muttering "mission accomplished".)
The latest strips have me worried about the longterm prospects of the strip. Someone's going to notice that characters can't look like they do in a previous panel much less a previous day or that background settings never match dialog. It became really frustrating to me when I did a search online and found some of the excellent art that used to appear in 3G. It feels like Frank is going to get this strip canceled sooner rather than later...
Steve, that's been going on for years! Just relax and laugh at the wackiness!!
