No I started a few days before (say the wednesday and the RSVP was Friday). I don't think it's rude if it's a few days before because chances are they weren't going to send it out on that date if they hadn't already.



that's what I thought! If they haven't sent them in yet, they probably forgot and won't be sending them in until I remind them....

I reminded people about rsvps about a week before.. then again it was mostly friends and close relatives who just forgot to send in the card

Re: Official April 2007 Brides Thread!!!!

I started emailing people for the RSVPs (we had about 75 outsanding) - now we have about 55 or so...

but everyone has been helpful in contacting people on their respective lists, so hopefully soon we have everyone so that we can start the seating arrangements (which I KNOW will take a while!)

I confirmed with the photographer.

I am waiting for the band to get back to me regarding my song lists...

Tuesday I meet with the hall to discuss menu, etc!

Re: Official April 2007 Brides Thread!!!!

I am actually excited for the first time during this whole process. We had a long engagement (a year and a half) and it was alot of stress,,, plus FH's mom got sick and passed away during our engagement and I have just wanted it to be over. -


but for the first time, I am happy and excited and can't wait for the day to come!

I am anxious in the sense that I am still very busy at work and hope I get everything done, esp now that its crunch time!

Re: Official April 2007 Brides Thread!!!!

I feel the same way Nina. We've been engaged almost 2.5 years! I am starting to get excited. I'm almost totally packed for the HM. Some of the GMs have gone to get fitted for their Tuxes. FH hasn't gone yet and we still have to get his ring sized and I need to get my dress altered.

Can't you wait for the honeymoon?

We both deserve it; that's for sure!

My mom bought me some clothes for the HM! I bought some (not much bc of our budget!) and then I just have to find the rest in what I have - then we have to pack - but can't wait for that point.

my dad still needs to get fitted for his tux... I don't know why he hasn't gone yet....

my final fitting for the gown is next week.

lol I hate doing anything last minute if I can do it before hand. I packed the day I book the HM a few weeks ago! lol it's my little OCD planning issues.


So by Saturday 3 of the people on the list had gotten fitted for their tuxes, another went earlier today and FH is going and taking 2 more guys with him! He also says he will go to get his ring finger size so I can take his ring later this week to the diamond district!
