Looks good! I would specify how many favors per table.. might be a lot of work for them to look at seating chart and figure out how many couples???
For my hall I had to put placecards in alphabetical order before I gave to them. Maybe your hall doesn't require this but maybe you should check?

its getting realy close.. you muct be excited!!

They gave us a chart we have to return with the amount of how many favors, but I'll add it on here too maybe. And Yes, we have to have the place cards alphabetical too before hand .

THANKS JULZ!

WOW Donna -good work! My hall actually thanked me for giving them direction. they said a lot of times brides give them stuff and theya re unsure of placement.

Definitely put on there the number of favors or attach a chart. What I did was say on the instructions (and on the favor box) 'One per couple, plus any single guests' Then on my seating chart, next to the table I wrote for example:
Table 11
* Guests: 13
* Scrolls: 7
* Menu: 13

That way they knew exactly how many of each thing I had was at each table.

this looks great! i don't have as much stuff to add as you, but now I will definitely attach a little note to my seating plan explaining how I want our mantle set and to be sure to place my bathroom basket. Good luck! Sounds great!

IT's OK

Your Still one of my favorite BM's

Thanks to Lisa again!

I really had a lot of 'Stuff' and I knew they wouldnt know WHAT to do with it...I feel much better with this list now!

Not to mention the bold faced instructions I taped to each box/bag...LOL.....How can they do anything wrong now!?!?!

Donna,

Very thorough. Great idea to include pics of exactly how you want it as well.

The Watermill will be seeing the same when my time comes.

Good luck. You must be sooooo excited.
