Re: ok NOVEMBER brides, how about an updated to do list??!!!
My first fitting which is Oct 18th
Shoes
Earrings
BP and parent gifts
Programs (which I have, I just need to print them)
Marriage License
Menu
Make last payments to vendors
Favors (already picked out just need to order them, they take 3-5 days to come in)
There may be more but I think that's it for now, I will add more if I can think of anything else.
