I was just freaking because I done so much but feel like I have done so little. There is still so much to do. Little things of course but it can get over whelming thinking about all the little things to do. Can;t wait love this time.

Re: May 2009 girls - less than 6 months left!!
I can hardly believe in less then 6 months we will all be married
I feel like I have a good start on everything so I am not freaking at all I just have small things left which will only take a little time and I usually do one thing at a time so I dont get overwhelmed.

I ordered mine from an International Company Online - at first I was a little weary, but the end result was perfect. It's an indian style invite, but they do have tradtional one as well
