I am in love with this thread!



So am I!!!!

We're on our way back to NY from visiting my parents for a few days in Florida. We're in the hotel now, staying somewhere in North Carolina..... and all I can think of is that I have SOOOOOO much to do when I get back home!! Have to finish printing all the outer envelopes and stuff the inners into them (I did all the stuffing before we left).

While FH has been watching movies at night, the past few nights I've been working on layout of favor tags, our menu, and trying to finalize my design for the DIY aisle runner..... I MUST make that when I get back to NY. FH has me going with him on business conventions to Pittsburgh and then straight to Chicago.... we won't be back in NY until Aug 4th or 5th. I pick up my dress and veil on Aug 8th!

Oh, and I made my menu/linen meeting appointment with Jenn at Fox Hollow for August 14th!!!! Can't wait to finalize everything!!!

So glad to see this thread so active lately!!!

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

Regarding stamps for invites, I HIGHLY recommend ordering from usps.gov...shipping costs only $1 no matter how many stamps you order

Two weeks ago, my mom mentioned something to me about buying stamps for my shower invites, so I suggested that we order those plus stamps for the RSVP envelopes for the wedding invites from usps.com to save us time rather than going to various post offices to see which has the stamps we want...I ordered on a Friday afternoon and they arrived the following Tuesday morning

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

Most of the things we need to do, we can't. Like it's too early to put together our OOT boxes, etc.

November is totally the new June!!! Ha ha!
