I am working on invites for the rehearsal dinner - as well as chosing a location.
I'm not sure if I want to hire a calligrapher for the invitations.
I'm going to look at tuxedo places on Sunday, to get an idea how much they will cost.

And WM wants more money next month!

Pretty much right there with ya...I do have my DJ but the rest nope nothing...When I speak with family and friends they are all like you have time...Then you come on here and you want to
This site is great but definitly makes one stress more that you should.

Re: April Brides...where should we be!

Haven't started thinking about a florist yet, or limos, or hotels or a honeymoon or invitations ... let alone a DIY project.

Hopefully that helps put your mind at ease.

We will get it all done with time to spare.
