Quick question... Have any of you girls gone for your meeting at your RH for menu, cake, etc. yet?

Yeah, I did that today actually. I went to my RH and finalized everything, and I went to the bakery that they use directly to pick out and taste cake flavors... yummy! I'm very excited about my cake, it's going to look like my invites!

Uggh!! No. FH and I work opposite schedules so finding time for us to both go and do something is so hard. One more thing that I need to add to my list of things to do!

Re: August Brides..

Thanks for the responses ladies at least I'm not the only one that hasnt gone yet. The only thing is that I want to get my menus done so hopefully it will happen soon...

Re: August Brides..

Working on my guest list...invites are in, but theyre pockets and we still have to assemble them!

Still need to finish BP gifts...
Need to schedule hair & makeup trial

Umm, other than that, have to drop off menu, program and place card templates/info to printer.

I think that's pretty much it.
