Where are you all storing your wedding 'stuff' until the big day?

My apartment doesnt have much closet space, so we got a few boxes, and hid them behind the couch, and everytime something comes in, we add it to the box. So far so good. Soon we'll have too much.

So far at the bottom of the closet, and some in boxes in living room. Same problem here, but i don't expect to have much more coming in.

So far I have all the bridal things, plus the ring pillow, flower basket. What else should I expect to need?

Whatever gifts we get we decide where to put them (and who's apartment - I get the girly stuff, he gets the wine glasses, and champagne)

Wedding stuff I have been collecting - cushion, candles, etc are in an under the bed sealed rubbemaid container

I'm not getting married until next Oct. but for some reason the boxes are just piling up in a corner of my room.

I told my Dad the other day I need to get a bin to store this stuff and if I could put it in the garage until I move out. Believe it or not he said yes (my dad is very 'protective' of his garage, we have to run past him anything we want to stick in it, HAHA!)

Re: Where are you all storing your wedding 'stuff' until the big day?

I HAVE NO ROOM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I have stuff EVERYWHERE!!! Right now I hava roommate so I try to keep it all away...I have some stuff in a corner of my dining room, some stuff in my tiny bedroom, some stuff in my closet, any presents that we get are in my basement (we live near the water so I'm a little afraid of flooding

) Thank God hurricane season is over, and my dress is at my cousins. I just hope I find everything when it comes time to need it

Re: Where are you all storing your wedding 'stuff' until the big day?

my gown will have to stay at FMIL's house (since she's gonna make it for me) but any other stuff I get will probably have to stay in the middle of the floor because I dont have room for lint in my apt.!

Re: Where are you all storing your wedding 'stuff' until the big day?

Gown and veil are at Fantasia Bridal in Rocky Point. Still waiting on headpiece, shoes from myglassslipper.com didn't fit and are now in my upstairs closet

; any registry gifts we have gotten are half at our house and half at FIL's house. Hey - I have a question! Is it bad luck or anything to start using stuff now that we are getting from our registry? We got a hand mixer and a bed tray that will come in really handy....

Re: Where are you all storing your wedding 'stuff' until the big day?

where ever we can find room basically...

a closet, under the bed, my parents place, on top of the wall unit....we have a small apartment so space is limited...where ever there is space is where the wedding stuff is going

Re: Where are you all storing your wedding 'stuff' until the big day?

Excellent, Liz. I was getting reallllly tired of making mashed potatoes by beating them to death with a wooden spoon - and brownie mix? Forget about it! No way to get those lumps out without a hand mixer....
