Re: April '03 Brides

Hey Christy!

As you know, my date is a week ahead of you (4/13)! I am actually sending out my invitations this upcoming weekend. I have a lot of out of town guests and want to leave more than enough time. What about you? How are your plans coming along? Did you make a decision about your Honeymoon?

Hey Christy - how have you been - how are your plans coming along?

Jessica, You have my date!! April 13!!!! YEAH!
We are really behind and our invites are not yet done. BUT, they should be ready to go out next week! I sent out STDs, and an email notice, so i am not too worried about out of towners. In fact, we are WAY over our limit so i am hoping to have lots of people not be able to come (Isn't that horrible)

You guys sound so organized! Can you believe it is around the corner!??!

I'm April 12th and my invites went out about a week ago. My response date is March 12 so that will give guests about 6 weeks to respond. I have gotten 2 responses so far! It is so exciting!

Another April 26 girls! I seriously cannot believe how we had so much time for so long and now it's around the corner! The woman at the invitation place said I should send mine Feb 10th - they just came in yesterdat but I have to get them addressed and assembled - then they go out! So-ASAP I guess!

I still haven't decided on favors......that's my latest hurdle. And BP gifts.... Everything else is comong along fine!

How about you?

P.S. - Michele what were you doing up and online so early! LOL!

April 26!! My envelopes are with the calligrapher, so I am waiting on that. But I wasn't planning on mailing them until the last week of Feb. Is that too late?

Mary,
I guess you can tell I'm addicted to LIW.... I wake up at 5:40 and am already scanning the posts quickly before I get ready for work.

Sorry I haven't been able to get back to your email... we finally (as you can tell by my post) got the invitations finished last night and mom went to mail them today! Can't wait to start getting the response cards back.

Well, I'm at work now, gotta run. Happy planning to all!

Re: April '03 Brides

I can't believe it's almost here. We've been planning for so long (a year and a half!) and it almost started to feel like it wasn't ever going to get here. Like it wasn't ever going to happen!

In any case, we still have to:

--Get some presents for the FG and RB.
--Finalize programs
--Buy frames for parents wedding pics for the reception
--$$ bag or mailbox or something
--Garter
--Find B&W table cameras
--buy stuff for emergency kit
--make baskets for programs and flower petal toss

I'm sure there's more, but this is all I can think of.

Can I say again, I can't believe it's almost here! I can't wait!!!!

Re: April '03 Brides

You can say it again and so will I!! Are you doing your programs yourself? I still have to do that. and favors are a big issue for us. Parents gifts - not sure about. We know what we're getting for the GMs but I am still undecided for the BMs. What are you giving your BMs?
Paiz Posted:

Re: April '03 Brides

Parents gifts! I knew I was forgetting something.

I got my BMs a jewelry set and am paying for the hair to be done the day of. FH got the GM collectibles from the Danbury Mint. Almost all of them are into sports - all different teams of course - so it actually was pretty easy.

We are doing our programs ourselves. I have to meet with the church tonight to see if they are okay. I also want to shorten some of their suggested readings - I don't know if they'll be okay with that. Oh, I also want to do the 'Hands' reading, but I want someone from my side to read for me, and someone from his side to read for him, with the priest doing the last bit. I hope they'll be okay with that.

We tried to book shore excursions for our HM (cruise), but just found out you can't do it until 10 days before...

Re: April '03 Brides

We JUST booked our cruise too - and I actually assigned my cousin to book our shore excursions cuz I KNOW I will be crazy 10 days before! What cruise are you taking?

My BMs (well one of them) told me she doesnt want jewelry So I'm thinking Coach.....(though she will be disappointed if it's not Prada - whatever!)

We're thinking about taking my parents out to dinner and frames but I would also like something else like maybe Bway tix? Not sure.....

Re: April '03 Brides

We're going to the Southern Carribean on Royal Carribean. I can't wait! (God, that's becoming my motto!) How about you - it would be GREAT if we were on the same cruise!

We were thinking of B'way tix and maybe dinner/limo for our parents. I don't know.
