We're sending our invites out this week. I've been away on business and finally getting back hopefully tonight and get a move on w/ these invitations...that will make it less than the standard 2 months before the wedding, but we sent out Save the Dates...so I'm hoping it won't be too bad and people will remember

This RSVP thing is stressing me out so much... my RSVP date is next Friday the 27th, and we still have over half the people left to RSVP... about 190ish... what the hell is wrong with people?? Not only did I send them out over a month ago, but they had save the dates since December, they should know by now if they are coming!!
Ok, had to vent...![]()
Totally Agree!! My RSVP date is Monday and we are missing about 50 !! I'm really getting stressed now.Still have menus to do, but I can't get the formatting right on powerpoint :( and my first fitting is next Monday

My sister, the MOH, and FBIL, the best man, have not RSVPed yet!!!!!!!!!! It's kind of funny in a way. Alot of friends I run into tell me they are coming verbally and that they will RSVP shortly, i tell them not to worry about it since my sis did not RSVP yet either!
I think my attitude will change once the RSVP date passes though.

so i designed and ordered our cocktail napkins (they can take 21 business days but i should be OK), finished our program design and layout and i'm getting ready to order paper, and i did our menu layout.also finally booked someone for BM makeup, and paid off our honeymoon in full
still need to figure out what i'm doing for table numbers, do table assignments once our rsvps are in (due 7/17 so 13 days left!) and finish bm/gm gifts.
everything is coming together!!!
ah, i need a RD dress though!!!!!! i had a possible dress in mind but i wore it to 'my dad's 50th' which turned out to be my shower so now i need to find something else
also have not bitten my nails in 2 weeks, but my skin is still gross so i have to stop picking
oh, and we hit our min! (160) and are expecting to end up with 185-190 guests

Yay! You're really getting some stuff done! I love your cocktail napkins by the way. They came out great and I am sure you will have them in time. Sounds like you need to go shopping for a RD dress-plus you can wear it on your honeymoon too.
