Re: October Girls Update
Hi Everyone!It's happening so fast, can you believe it's almost our time??
It is 4:38AM and I couldn't sleep - once again! - because I have wedding things on my mind. Just did a count of my rsvps and there are 66 coming so far, my minimum is 90 and there are about 45 who have not responded.
I'm trying to decide when to hit the B list - I think I better do it soon!
Still to do:
Dye shoes
Get program text to SonicStef
Tie favor tags on favors
Buy a Poloroid camera
Meet with hall, day of coordinator, band
Book hair person

Re: October Girls Update
my fi, brother best man and dad all bought the same shoes to wear with their tux. they are all so cute!i had a make up trial...sorry ladies...no pictures it was a spur of the moment thing. my cousin's friend is a make-up artist for channel and she happened to be there yesterday when i stopped by. she did an awesome job. she did my mom's makeup last week and it looked great too.

Re: October Girls Update
45 days for me too....we didn't do much of anything for the wedding this weekend except meet with our priest who was a riot. i never thought i would say that about a priest, but he was very funny.we are closing on the houe tomorrow which has pretty much consumed us.
tonight we are stopping in to see about dance lessons, and tomorrow morning we will get our marriage liscense.

Re: October Girls Update
This weekend we worked on our programs, menus and seating arrangements. We also finally got a hold of the priest and got an appt to finalize the ceremony (we wrote it ourselves). It's all starting to come together!

Re: October Girls Update
We picked up our rings on Friday, I felt so weird when I tried it on. Not to mention I think it looks odd, since I have been wearing just the engagement ring for over 2 years.Bought the paper for the programs, going to Michael's today to buy decorations for my mail box.
Still need to plan a day to go get our Marriage License

Re: October Girls Update
Where has everyone bought the paper for their programs (for the church)? I saw some in Michaels, but it folds into three sections.....Anyone have any ideas for me?

i most certainly will...probably not today though...we're closing and then his parents are taking us all out for dinner to celebrate. we tried to convince them to order take out to the new house but it didn't work. my fi is itching to rip up the carpets. they will probably be gone tonight.
