Re: APRIL Brides!

Actually I'm good, even though we still have to come up with some more $$. I feel like we are in a good place.

I'm going to make my 1st fitting appt for next weekend.

Plus FH is adorable telling people 'We will see you in 65 days.'

How are you doing?

Re: APRIL Brides!

Aww, that's so sweet of FH! Glad to know you're doing well :)

I'm doing good also! I feel like we still have enough time to do all the last details --- ordering my flower girl dresses and ring bearer suit in the next day or two, going w/ my mom for her dress next weekend, my first dress fitting is tomorrow, and our rings are in! In 2 weeks we're doing final menu stuff as well as flowers.

After that we need to finalize vows/ceremony, music, and little things like candy buffet, menus, and place cards. Not too bad!

Ohh! And I'm also excited for our extended honeymoon - thank you Uncle Sam!

Re: APRIL Brides!

right now the major thing I'm dealing with is the dam seating chart. If only people just got along with everybody!!!!!


other than that, I'm super calm and have everything under control. Just waiting for the rest of the RSVP's to keep rolling in, and start looking for shoes and an ivory shrug for the ceremony.

I'm debating about doing this. The majority of the guests will be my immediate family and they are all telling me not to have one.

I think I may just take out my BP and their SO for hibatchi and drinks, but I feel bad for my family.


I cut out 20 people by not having my family come, so it's a pretty big chunck that i'd be saving.

Scott will not be at the rehersal if we do it on Wed night
Patricia won't be there if we do it Thursday night
The church will not let us do it Friday night
Those factors plus more mean that we are not having one

Re: APRIL Brides!

well I'm close enough to April so....

1) Cake Tasting on March 5th (also ordering the Groom's Cake that day)

2) After tasting going with MOH to scout out places to take pics with the BP.

3) Sending out invites this Saturday!

4) Need to get my ring resize (not e-ring but this ring FH bought me on our first cruise together. It has green and blue stones so I want to wear that on my right hand as my something blue).

5) Taking B-Pics on March 12th and then I have to make the album when I get them back.

6) Order RBs adidas sneakers

7) I got the FG dress in but I still need to see it on our FG.

8) We are good on the money saving front of it so I'm not worried about that

9) We STILL have to meet with our priest and talk about the ceremony and finalize the readings (then print programs)

10) Ask readers to be part of ceremony

11) Get Thank You Cards for BP gifts

12) confirm/book RD location and then order invites (I already have them saved on Vistaprint)

13) STILL waiting for 'the call'. Once I get it go in for a little preview before my first fitting.

14) Food Tasting on March 25th and picking final menu (then printing menus)

15) All the final meetings/payments with vendors.

Re: APRIL Brides!

1) we decided no formal RD - we will have people come to the low to hang out and have some pizza - LESS STRESS and LESS MONEY to worry about

2) my ivory shrug DOES NOT match my soft white dress, so going back to Davids to see if white matches, or else I'll be on the hunt for something that works with my dress

3) WAITING for rvsps still- deadline is march 9th - then i make phone calls

4) MAKEUP trial this Saturday

5) set up meeting for Rehearsal with the church, and making sure my BP and family are all aware of my shedule

6) gearing up for my 2nd fitting in a couple of weeks.

7) gonna look at who did RSVP and start a preliminary seating chart.

8) looking on vista print to menus for the reception

9) Bachelorette party set for March 26th :)
