Ha, we got four more yes responses, and two no's. When we got back from our DJ appointment, I played my answering machine and people actually left messages apologizing for their tardiness. I hope today brings back a lot of my rsvps.
The DJ went great! We are using Bravo Sound and we went over everything detail by detail. He put all our ceremony music into a special file for us. I love feeling productive.
As far as weather goes, I'm hoping for a cool August day too! When I went to WM last year and booked, it was the same week we are getting married this year...and last year was gorgeous! It was like in the mid-70's and not too humid at all. Lets hope for a great august! Outdoor ceremony baby!
OMG! FINALLY I HAVE A DATE TWIN!!!!!!
When was your response date?
Mine is July 11th-Im still missing over 150!!

Hey, cool! A date twin! 8/11 is gonna be an awesome day. I put my rsvp date as July 1st, secretly giving the procrastinators an extra week to respond and forcing people to respond earlier. 7-11 is a good date to put, that gives exactly a month. I'm still waiting on almost forty now! Good luck. Let's see where we're at in another week.

My father/daughter song is 'in my life'-beatles. We are doing a lot of beatles songs so I figured it would fit with the theme, and its a great song.
I want more responses too! At least people have been calling in their rsvps at this point..got two more calls today.

Seems like the August ladies are all very busy....that can only mean our month is approaching.
I love getting the RSVP cards, but yesterday I got only one, hopefully they will pick up after this week. I think the holiday might play a factor in this one.

Hello girls! Next month is our month, now I am starting to feel like I want to stop the clock..there is still so much to do
I went for my 2nd fitting also, and am much more relieved now
The first one was a distaster!The responses are rolling in..125 yes and only 15 no's so far
I am making all the final appointments for all the vendors for the 1st week in August..you know what that means..our month is fast approaching
Hope all of you girls are doing well, with a month to go! Good Luck

Can you return/exchange it for something else if when you get it, its not quite right? I was such a pain in the butt with mine my FH and I spent a whole day trekking around til I found 'the one'. You know it when you see it, so you should be fine. Good luck!

Your day is so close....even though you have those little things to get done, you have to be excited that your big day will be here soon enough. I know that I have 100 of things to do and mine is still over a month away, but I still can't wait.
I have my menu selection today. I have gone to two dress fittings, final appt. with priest and had a bridal shower this past sunday. Things are coming together...now I have to:
write thank yous for shower
buy rest of bridal party gifts
honeymoon clothing
final appointments/payments with vendor
and all those little thigns like throwing rice candy, day of schedule, programs, etc.
Our month will be soon here!
