Re: *~*~*~Official August 08 Thread*~*~*~*

Ah... i'm going to do the craziest thing..

Its about 2 months to my wedding, I'm taking a new job offer and moving to another group internal to my company!!

The perks are its closer to my house and I don't have to take the subway! and I don't have to deal w/ my current boss who was driving me nuts.

The quirks are its a new job right before my wedding! they've been pretty understanding abt taking 2 weeks off for my wedding. But the rest of the stuff needs to be done during the weeknights or on the weekends.

AM I CRAZY 2 DO THIS NOW?

Re: *~*~*~Official August 08 Thread*~*~*~*

I'm really stressing out... I was OOT tues-sun and now that I'm back at work I feel like my day is shot w/ my commute from NYC. This weekend is like my last chance to get stuff done while I'm in NY, since my bach party is the following weekend and then i fly back

my mom, a BM and I all have fittings saturday, plus we're meeting with the florist again to firm up our plans.

i ordered our ketubah but didnt fill out the personalizaton form yet. i still need to order ribbon for our favors, and finalize our programs, and pick out yarmulkes and songs and everything else.

im freaking out that there are only 9 weeks left.

I was incredibly stressed out about the date we were sending them out, but the people who made our invitations assured me that we were fine with time, since 'etiquette says 6-8 weeks before the event'...FH calmed me down too...when you think about it, it really shouldn't take people that long to respond...and, if you happened to send out a save the date, you bought yourself plenty of time with that!

no stressing ladies...otherwise you'll stress me out

the DJ in July
Music for the ceremony
Move in to the apartment in July
Lombardi's in July
Programs
Wrap favors

Undergarments
thank yous for shower....
Petal Cones....
OOT packages (if we decide to do it)
