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

How are we doing ladies??? Right now my head is spinning from all of these little details. We chose bridesmaid shoes- we want to dye them to match the sash of the dress. Apparently now it's too late to get a swatch from saison blanche- I didn't realize and Burton's is being pretty annoying about it. They can't like cut a little piece from their swatch. Oh well, we'll figure it out. These past few days I've been working on:

Parent's gifts
Must take pictures
Bachelorette party ideas/details, etc.
Waiting on RSVP's still.
I bought all the stuff for my program fans-working on ceremony and program now.
Today in Michael's I found little easels for like 3.99 and up- I was thinking of doing my table numbers. Now I'm almost positive that I am. They're classy looking and cheap.

Hey no problem! It's always great when you stumble upon things. I know someone a few weeks ago had posted about the easels and they looked so expensive (I don't know what the pricing actually was) but I didn't even think of an easel like that before because I thought they were so expensive. Good luck with them!

Yeah I think I asked her where she got them and it was a dollar store or something but she said she had to go to like a million different stores to get enough!

Let me ask you - what section of Michaels were they in? Like the photo section? And also, are you backing your table # pics with cardstock so they stay upright in the easel?? Thanks!!

I feel the same way about my RSVPs, but I was talking to a friend this weekend who is getting married in 2 weeks and she said the week of the RSVP deadline the RSVPs start coming in like CRAZY!!!!!!!!!!!! so don't worry just yet. My Rsvp deadline is in almost a week and we are missing over 90 RSVPs! Hopefully they will start rolling in soon.

Yeah this is what I am hoping will happen! These past couple of weeks I am lucky if I got a total of 5 replies the whole week! Hopefully they start flying in ASAP!

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

This past week was the first full week after our invites went out. The week came in with roar but finished with a wimper! We only got two on Friday and one yesterday. So far out of 220 we have 47 yes and 3 no. But I'm worried that the people who are likely to remember to send their RSVP's on time already have and we're going to have to chase down everyone else.

And I'm having reoccurring dreams that a bunch of people show up on the day of without seats, or that we get a lot of no-shows (the dream switches back and forth). Am I a freak?

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

So we are 2 days away from our RSVP date and still waiting on 58 people!!!!! grrrrrr

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

ARGH! See, that is the kind of thing that keeps me up a night. Why do people have so much trouble dropping a card in the mail!
