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

Deb I am sure you will be fine! I just keep making list and checking things off of them! LOL

I feel like there is a lot to get done too. But I really dont want to stress to much over it. I need to figure out a few more things.. but it should be ok.

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

I've been busy juggling several part time jobs and haven't gotten as much done this month as I wanted. But I hope to pick up invitations andgive envlopes for calligraphy this Saturday and buy bags for rice-throwing after the ceremony before the end of the month.

I also want to start taking dance lessons (for both Greek and American dances), and take my FMIL and my mom to pick out dresses before mid-August. And the 2nd weekend of August I will take my MOH and best man's wife to lunch followed by looking at favors, Greek ceremony crowns and candles.

And I have to make a decision about who i want to use for hair & make-up...soon.

Most importantly, I need to contact the dress salon about arranging to pick up my dress!!

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

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

Hello fellow Nov Brides!!
I haven't been on much...but just wanted to say hi. In the past 6 weeks, we bought a house, FH had umbilical hernia surgery, got our invatations, drama with FH mother, drama with best friend, mom got her dress, grandmother got her's, mom almost giving away shower secret even though I was right on the other side of the pool ( )...and that's about it in a nut shell.

I am hoping to resolve friend drama tonight....and then having a gladd of wine.

Hope all you girls are doing well. Talk to you soon!!



Lisa
