Re: *~* November Is Our Month *~*

Page 8???? I don't think so!!!

So to get us back on page 1, here's what I've been doing for the past 2 hours while FH is watching 'Lara Croft Tomb Raider' (ok, so I'm watching it to.... never saw it)........

Finalizing our guest list and typing it all into the 'Wedding Guests' feature on LIW. That thing is amazing! I wasn't sure if I was going to go through the trouble of retyping names from my MS Word master list, but it has a seating chart feature that I figure will come in handy in a few months.

I just noticed that you can click on 'Guest Report' & download an Excel file with all the info right at your fingertips! Instead of me having to type it all out and keep the columns straight. Anything to save time!!!

Also worked on my monogram design today, trying to finalize so I can get started on all printed materials (DIY aisle runner, menu, thank-you/donation tags, program cover, etc). Hoping to do that in the next week or so.

I'm actually inspired lately to do wedding things, so I figure if I do a little each day, it won't be overwhelming.

How's everyone else doing?

Yeah, 2nd deposits will start being due soon, and it's starting to stress me out, too.

And I feel like there's still so much left to do, I'm on the verge of panic...
