We met with our deacon last night and planned out the entire ceremony. I got so emotional picking all the readings and things...I never knew you got to pick EVERYTHING!Invites get mailed this weekend. Hair trial next weekend. Then it's just:
place cards & seating arrangements,
finish BM gifts,
programs,
and my fittings.
I think. Hmmm anything you think I might be missing??

Re: *~*~*~Official August 08 Thread*~*~*~*
Hi again ladies!I am having a busy week! My mom tried on her dress and got shoes-scheduled her 1st fitting.
BM dresses are in (finally!!!
) my sister tried hers on today and scheduled fitting-going with my bm LB and sister on Friday. Then we have to pick shoes for bms. Finished bm gifts and FH finished gm gifts. I even wrapped mine already so they're done!
Got a hold of some vendors-still have to contact photographer and limos.
Waiting on ribbon to finish my card box.
Wine labels are on their way and so we'll shrink wrap the foil piece and then favors will be done.
We have about 35% of RSVPs and the date is 2 1/2 weeks from now. I am a little worried that there will be a lot of phone calls.
Right now working on ceremony and programs. We are having a friend marry us so we'll plan out our own ceremony.
My work shower is next weekend-I'm so excited!
It's all coming along but I can't believe that there's only 51 days left!!!!
