the things you have left to do are perfectly normal at this point to still have left. Those are all things that get done around this time...To me sounds like you're doing fine

i just booked limos last night and i feel relieved!! that was the last major vendor. and i got an awesome deal.if any of you are still looking for limos, u should FM luvmyalfonse (jenn) and ask her about her company. really, we got a great price from them.

I'm a May bride....May 24th
I still have sooo much to do. We still have to book a DJ, order invites, book RD, finalize hair & make up, order BM, GM, parents presents, and then all the little things![]()
Welcome!!!!! Don't worry- you will get everything done. I think we all feel like that! But it will all get done!![]()
P.S:
My friend got married at Villa Lombardi's and her wedding was AMAZING!!!!!![]()
Yayy!! It's always good to hear good things about your RH, I think that's the one thing I'm not stressed about. I feel like they'll take care of things and it'll just end up being beautiful!

Re: *~*~*~OFFICIAL MAY 2008 BRIDES THREAD*~*~*~
I am definitely on the move too - I did so much in the beginning and have basically been coasting for the last 6 months.In the last two weeks:
- first dress fitting
- bought veil and slip
- bought longline bra
- bought FH wedding band
- bought FG and RB t-shirts for iron ons
- got FG tiaras
- ordered personalized tote bags for BM gifts
- worked on ceremony/vows
- bought invisible pen (thanks Heather!)
- approved invitation mock up
- picked unity candle (saw one online, getting mom to make it)
- put deposit on charter bus for hotel guests
- got limo pricing, will book next week
- added items to registry
I think that's it --- next on the list:
- cake ideas
- CP sample
- book limos
- GM gifts
- monogram for menus / OOT bag labels
- songs for ceremony / reception
I'm sure there's more but I'm at work and totally blanking on 'the list'! Feeling good though, a little overwhelmed just because time is flying, but overall good!!
