What are your parent gifts? I dont know what to get? FH got my dad a pair of Yankee cufflinks that he also got for his bridal party. I dont know what to get mamadukes.

UGH! I hate thinking about this... let's see:

We need to...

-Final apptmt with DJ (4/19)
-Send must-take photos to Duet
-Hair Trial/Cut/Color (4/24)
-Make-up trial (??)
-Spray tan trial (I think I'm going to go next Wed. since I have a wedding Friday night.)
-Final fitting (5/6)
-Escort Cards/Menus/Programs/Candy buffet jars/candles to be brought to RH (5/4)
-Seating chart
-Call remaining RSVPs
-GM gifts (FH still hasn't done this! )
-Put together BM totes
-Send specifics/final payment to Partybooths (4/19)

-Candy buffet labels
-Finish DIY crystal tree, drop off at RH (5/4)
-Finalize music with church (???)

I'm sure there's plenty of other stuff I'm missing, but it was actually helpful to look at my list here and then think of what needs to be added and what can be crossed off.
