Re: August Brides..

Oh my gosh. No one is as far behind as me. We just approved the final proof of our invites yesterday and should get them in 3 weeks. Then we'll have a week for FSIL to do the calligraphy and they're off to the printer.

Oh well.

Also majorly behind on Limos (hopefully booking Monday night). And florist - still trying to finalize that. Pretty stressed/overwhelmed with all this.

Thankfully, FMIL got our favors, we just have to wrap them.

I have the summer off to make programs/menus/shower thank yous with a monogram that I still have to design.

Also still needed: tuxes, ring bearer outfits, 2 BMs have yet to choose their dresses (I said espresso JCrew any dress...).

And we still need the Rehearsal dinner to be booked!

AHHHH Tell me it's going to work out. Please!

Re: August Brides..

Well my invites are out already... though that has brought up more issues than I can tell you (RSVP's, who's invited, errrggghhh...)

I'm having fun stalking my registries because my showers are coming up... one in NY on May 25th, and one in Pittsburgh on June 8th... yay!

Doing some final vendor meetings next week with FH... band, RH, bakery, church, priest... fun fun fun!

2nd and final dress fitting is June 10th

FG is coming to town the day before the shower in NY, so we're going to get her dress then

Still waiting on my BM dresses to come in

Have to buy small things like unity candle, garter, BM gifts, etc...

Also have to decide if i'm doing DIY menus or not... I don't know if I really have the time or energy to deal with it

Have to have my programs made

OOT bags

All while studying for my NAPLEX and MPJE pharmacy licensure examinations and moving to Charleston, SC the end of June, and starting a new job! what fun!

Re: August Brides..

I am picking up invites on Monday and am gonna bust my *** to get them out by next weekend. I don't want to schedule anything for next week so I can just focus on invites. After that, I'll be checking in with all my vendors/RH and going over specifics since I booked a package. Then we're going to finish favors and the rest of DIY's and then it's the specifics of planning out the ceremony (our friend is marrying us). There's so much to do! There are only 2 weeks left of May! but !!

Re: August Brides..

Yea I'm starting to get stressed...I had heard the 3 month mark was a stressful point and boy are they right!!! I am ordering my invites today (they only take 7-10 days to come in) then I am going to hopefully bust my butt to get them out by June 1st. I also have to do:
Favors
DOJ
BP gifts
Parent gifts
Menu (my BM called last week)
Veil
Tiara
Garter
Book rehearsal dinner (we have the rehearsal booked)
Limos
Petal cones
Hair trial
Makeup trial
and STILL add more things to our registry


I feel sooooo far behind
