UPDATED:
Amazing how fast this post came up and now all that stressing, preping, and planning is done. CONGRATULATIONS LADIES!!
WISHING YOU ALL A LIFETIME OF LOVE, HAPPINESS, and HEALTH. As we start to stray from the boards I will remember how you all helped me and we were going through the same things together. Thanks! Congratulations Newlyweds!!!!!!!!
Best of luck for a future filled with love and happiness

I figured everyone else's month pops up why not ours...
Ok ladies where are we with planning and getting things out.
Please don't ask me..I am so behind. I am off work for the summer and now have no money for deposits on anything so I am waiting.
I have Duet -photo & Video and that's about it...I have all these little ideas swirling in my head though.
oh I am sending my STD's out late Aug.

What is everyone else up to?

Trying to book the HM. I want to get that out of the way to avoid some heavy duty charges down the road.

Other than that.....uh, not too much.

Florists and Limo probably.

I saw in your profile that you want o go to Hawaii - I would too Are you using a travel agent? I plan to go in early September. I'm worried that it will be too expensive, so I am looking for a back up.

Best quote I got was $5200 for 10 days, at Oahu, Kaui, and Maui. Outrigger Hotel in Oahu, and the Hyatts for Kaui/Maui.

I did get a Tahitian Cruise quote and I think Im steering in that direction.

Re: April 2006 girls Welcome

Okay - that isn't terrible. But it doesn't include dining or activities. Hmmm.... For the Tahitian cruise, where do you depart?

FH is not a great flyer, so I really had to work some magic to get him to commit to Hawaii. I doubt he would do Hawaii.
