Re: *~* November Is Our Month *~*

Page 8???? I don't think so!!!

So to get us back on page 1, here's what I've been doing for the past 2 hours while FH is watching "Lara Croft Tomb Raider" (ok, so I'm watching it to.... never saw it)........

Finalizing our guest list and typing it all into the "Wedding Guests" feature on LIW. That thing is amazing! I wasn't sure if I was going to go through the trouble of retyping names from my MS Word master list, but it has a seating chart feature that I figure will come in handy in a few months.

I just noticed that you can click on "Guest Report" & download an Excel file with all the info right at your fingertips! Instead of me having to type it all out and keep the columns straight. Anything to save time!!!

Also worked on my monogram design today, trying to finalize so I can get started on all printed materials (DIY aisle runner, menu, thank-you/donation tags, program cover, etc). Hoping to do that in the next week or so.

I'm actually inspired lately to do wedding things, so I figure if I do a little each day, it won't be overwhelming.

How's everyone else doing?

Yeah, 2nd deposits will start being due soon, and it's starting to stress me out, too.

And I feel like there's still so much left to do, I'm on the verge of panic...

Do not stress November 08 bride! Everything will come together. Just start working on your guest list. That will help you place your order for invitations and favors. I suggest that you check the reviews on this site for suggestions on hair and make-up artist. Good luck!

If you have your veil and you have some idea of what you want to do with your hair, you should look into getting your headpiece & DOJ before the summer is over. You should look at what's available at Barrons at Tri-County mall for the ehadpiece.

Parent & GM gifts you should definitely get done before September.

Finalize your guest list...that way you can order your invites (don't forget to order 20-25 extra just in case), and also figure out how many favors you'll need.

Programs, OOT bags & menus can also be done ahead of time. If you're not sure about the final menu or the ceremony order yet, you can at least play around with different styles & formats and then fill in the gaps when the info is available.

My FH will begin looking into tuxes soon...have your FH (or you) start looking into it, too.
