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?

Hi Girls!
Well almost 'official' we went for our marriage lisense today. OMG!! Very real now...I have been very emotional lately and can't stop crying. I don't know what it is. I have also had really bad pains in my chest for almost a week now? What's up with that?? It feels like someone is stepping on my chest. I think it is stress. I hope it goes away but maybe not for:
10 Days 19 Hours
41 Minutes 28 Seconds
I hope you girls are doing good...Good Luck to the next April Batch SO SOON!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hello Ladies!

How is everyone doing? I am traveling for work this week in Wisconsin and I wish I was in LI finishing up my last minute details.

Any suggestions for gifts for our Readers (both women)?

Thanks so much!

Updates:

Every vendor is either paid or has a check in the mail coming to them

We should have our HM documents by Saturday

I had my final fitting yesterday and everything is perfect, I just need to stick some cutlets in my bra and I'm good to go.

We're still debating on what room to use for our ceremony. I have a spy coming to the hall on Sunday to check out the noise issue.

I'm having my 2 bachelorette parties this weekend back to back!!

9 DAYS TO GO. I'm amazed I haven't thrown up yet!!!
